Abstract

The invention relates to an image element (2), especially a security element, which is applied to a base and is used to identify packagings (1), goods and means of payment. The aim of the invention is to create an image element (2), especially a security element, which is easier to recognise for the end consumer and can be identified as an authentic item. To this end, the image element is provided with a combination of a printed image (4) and a DOVD (diffractive optically variable device) element (5). A common pattern (3) is obtained by at least partially applying the printed image (4) and the DOVD element (5) next to or over each other, the printed image (4) and the DOVD element (5) respectively comprising the partial pattern constituting the common pattern (3).

Description

SICHERHEITSBILDELEMENT MIT TEILMOTIVEN SECURITY IMAGE ELEMENT WITH PARTIAL MOTIVES
Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein auf eine Unterlage aufgebrachtes Bildelement, insbesondere ein Sicherheitselement zur Kennzeichnung von Verpackungen, Waren, Zahlungsmittel und dergleichen.The present invention relates to an image element applied to a base, in particular a security element for identifying packaging, goods, means of payment and the like.
Zum Nachweis der Originalität eines Produktes werden zur Zeit verschiedene Arten des Druckes und sogenannte DOVDs (diffractive optically variable devices) eingesetzt.Various types of printing and so-called DOVDs (diffractive optically variable devices) are currently used to prove the originality of a product.
Zu den am häufigsten verwendeten (Druck- ) Verfahren zum Nachweis der Originalität gehört der sogenannte Sicherheitsdruck. Dieser kann beispielweise als Tiefdruck, Stichtiefdruck (ergibt einen spürbar erhabenen Druck) , Siebdruck, Flexodruck, Offsetdruck, Buchdruck oder Rastertiefdruck (durch den besonderen Schriftrandeffekt besonders schwer zu fälschen) ausgeführt sein. Der Sicherheitsdruck kann zusätzlich offene oder verdeckte Sicherheitsmerkmale enthalten, wie beispielsweise Spezialfarben, Guillochen (schwierig herzustellen und kaum kopierbar) oder Sicherheitsraster. Bei den Spezialfarben können beispielsweise Thermofarben Verwendung finden, die unter Temperatureinfluß ihren Farbton ändern, oder Reagenzfärben, die auf Chemikalien mit Verfärbung reagieren, oder wasserlösliche Farben, die bei Kontakt mit Wasser „ausbluten" oder Kopierschutzfarben, die nicht farbgetreu kopierbar sind oder nicht sichtbare fluoreszierende Farben, die erst unter UV-Licht erkennbar werden oder schwarze Farben die im IR-Licht unsichtbar werden, um einige Spezialfarben zu nennen .Security printing is one of the most frequently used (printing) methods to prove originality. This can be done, for example, as rotogravure, intaglio printing (results in a noticeably raised print), screen printing, flexographic printing, offset printing, letterpress printing or screen gravure printing (particularly difficult to forge due to the special lettering edge effect). The security print can also contain open or hidden security features, such as special colors, guilloches (difficult to manufacture and difficult to copy) or security grids. The special inks can, for example, use thermal inks that change their color under the influence of temperature, or reagent stains that react to chemicals with discoloration, or water-soluble inks that “bleed out” on contact with water, or copy protection inks that cannot be copied true to color or invisible fluorescent Colors that can only be recognized under UV light or black colors that become invisible in IR light, to name a few special colors.
Bei den genannten DOVDs handelt es sich um spezielle Sicherheitselemente, wobei wiederum unterteilt werden kann in analoge Hologramme, also mittels Photographie hergestellte Hologramme, und digitale, computergenerierte Hologramme, wie beispielsweise Trustseal, Kinegram, egapix, Heliogramm, 2D/3D Hologramm, Digital Image usw.. Jedes dieser DOVDs weist eine unterschiedliche Sicherheitsstufe auf. Die DOVDs werden als holographische Etiketten, Laminate oder Heißprägefolien gefertigt und auf die gewünschten Produkte aufgebracht.The aforementioned DOVDs are special security elements, which in turn can be divided into analog holograms, i.e. holograms produced by means of photography, and digital, computer-generated holograms, such as trustseal, kinegram, egapix, heliogram, 2D / 3D hologram, digital image, etc. .. Each of these DOVDs has one different security level. The DOVDs are manufactured as holographic labels, laminates or hot stamping foils and applied to the desired products.
Dem Endkonsumenten ist es zwar in der Regel möglich festzustellen, dass das ihm vorliegende Produkt einen Sicherheitsdruck aufweist bzw. mit einem DOVD versehen ist, es ist ihm jedoch nicht möglich zu überprüfen, ob diese Sicherheitsmerkmale auch korrekt sind und vom Hersteller kommen. Teilweise sind die DOVDs auch nur sehr schlecht zu erkennen und müssen unter einem bestimmten Lichteinfall betrachtet werden. DOVDs in Form von Folien können prinzipiell auf viele Produkte bzw. Produktverpackungen aufgebracht werden. Sie stehen dann jedoch in keinem Zusammenhang mit dem Produkt, da es sich im Prinzip lediglich um einen Aufkleber handelt. Sie könnten somit auch von unautorisierten Personen einfach aufgeklebt bzw. aufgeprägt werden oder als Bedruckstoff verwendet werden. Der Inhalt der Sicherheitsdrucke und DOVDs bleibt meist unbeachtet. Ausführliche Beschreibungen über die richtige Überprüfung, zB auf derselben Verpackung, wo sich das DOVD befindet, könnten das Vertrauen in die Marke schwächen und werden daher vermieden. Auch Platzgründe sprechen oft gegen eine solche Beschreibung.As a rule, it is possible for the end consumer to ascertain that the product at hand has a security print or is provided with a DOVD, but it is not possible for him to check whether these security features are also correct and come from the manufacturer. Sometimes the DOVDs are also very difficult to recognize and have to be viewed under a certain incidence of light. In principle, DOVDs in the form of films can be applied to many products or product packaging. However, they are then not related to the product, since it is basically just a sticker. This means that they could also be simply stuck on or stamped on by unauthorized persons or used as printing material. The content of the security prints and DOVDs is mostly ignored. Detailed descriptions of the correct verification, for example on the same packaging where the DOVD is located, could weaken trust in the brand and are therefore avoided. Grounds also often speak against such a description.
Eine relative Verbesserung stellt es dar, wenn in dem DOVD oder durch den Sicherheitsdruck ein signifikantes Logo dargestellt wird, welches in unmittelbarem Zusammenhang mit dem Produkt steht, wie dies beispielsweise bei einer Schutzmarke der Fall ist. Zu beachten dabei ist jedoch die Tatsache, dass es viele holographische Möglichkeiten gibt, ein bestimmtes Logo bzw. ein bestimmtes Motiv darzustellen, die ein Konsument alleine aus dem Gedächtnis nicht zu unterscheiden vermag, so dass gerade diese Technik den Fälschern Möglichkeiten zur Nachahmung eröffnet.It is a relative improvement if a significant logo is shown in the DOVD or through the security print, which is directly related to the product, as is the case with a trademark, for example. However, it should be noted that there are many holographic options for displaying a specific logo or a specific motif that a consumer cannot distinguish from memory alone, so that this technique in particular offers counterfeiters the opportunity to imitate them.
Ziel der Erfindung ist es daher, ein Bildelement, insbesondere ein Sicherheitselement zu schaffen, das diese Nachteile verhindert und für den Endkonsumenten leichter erkennbar und als echt beurteilbar ist. Erfindungsgemäß wird dies durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 erreicht . Dadurch kann ein prägnantes, einprägsames Motiv, welches drucktechnisch hergestellt wird, innerhalb eines DOVDs fortgesetzt werden. Es können das Druckbild und das DOVD so miteinander verknüpft werden, dass perspektivische Effekte sowie Licht und Schatten hervorgehoben werden. Weiters können eben bzw. flach erscheinende Linien im jeweiligen anderen Element fortgesetzt werden. Der Konsument kann jedenfalls sofort erkennen, ob Druckbild und DOVD zusammenpassen. Die Erkennbarkeit eines Logos oder einer Schutzmarke wird auf diese Art und Weise erleichtert. Das Anbringen bzw. Aufkleben eines DOVD auf ein Produkt reicht dann nicht mehr aus, um die Originalität zu bestätigen. Vielmehr ist eine genaue Abstimmung und Ausrichtung zwischen Druckbild und DOVD erforderlich, um das gemeinsame Motiv darstellen zu können.The aim of the invention is therefore to create an image element, in particular a security element, which prevents these disadvantages and is easier for the end consumer to recognize and to assess as genuine. According to the invention this is achieved by the characterizing features of claim 1. This allows a concise, memorable motif, which is produced using printing technology, to be continued within a DOVD. The printed image and the DOVD can be linked in such a way that perspective effects as well as light and shadow are emphasized. Furthermore, lines that appear flat or flat can be continued in the respective other element. In any case, the consumer can immediately see whether the printed image and DOVD match. This makes it easier to recognize a logo or a trademark. Attaching or sticking a DOVD to a product is then no longer sufficient to confirm the originality. Rather, exact coordination and alignment between the printed image and the DOVD is required in order to be able to represent the common motif.
Durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruchs 2 kann das Bildelement zusätzlich gegen Fälschungen abgesichert werden, indem das Druckbild anstelle mit herkömmlichenDue to the characterizing features of claim 2, the image element can be additionally secured against counterfeiting by using the printed image instead of conventional ones

Fig.2 zeigt eine detailliertere Ansicht des Bildelements 2. Dieses umfasst ein Motiv 3, welches sich einerseits aus einem mit bekannten Drucktechniken hergestellten Druckbild 4 und andererseits aus einem DOVD 5 zusammensetzt. Wie die Aufteilung erfolgt, ist für die Erfindung nicht von Bedeutung. Wichtig ist jedoch, dass sich Linien und Flächen im Inneren des DOVDs in angrenzenden Druckbild fortsetzen.2 shows a more detailed view of the image element 2. This comprises a motif 3, which is composed on the one hand of a print image 4 produced using known printing techniques and on the other hand of a DOVD 5. How the division takes place is not important for the invention. However, it is important that lines and areas inside the DOVD continue in the adjacent print image.
Fig.3 zeigt ein erfindungsgemäßes Bildelement mit anderem Motiv, nämlich einem Ball mit vom Zentrum nach aussen führenden, gebogenen Linien. Die schraffierten Bereiche des Balls sind als DOVD ausgeführt, wohingegen die anderen Bereiche als normaler Druck gestaltet sind. Wichtig dabei ist wiederum, dass sich die Linien und Flächen im Inneren des DOVDs im angrenzenden Druck fortsetzen.3 shows an image element according to the invention with a different motif, namely a ball with curved lines leading outwards from the center. The hatched areas of the ball are designed as DOVD, whereas the other areas are designed as normal printing. Again, it is important that the lines and areas inside the DOVD continue in the adjacent print.
Das erfindungsgemäße Bildelement kann auf drei verschiedene Arten hergestellt werden. Einerseits kann zuerst das Druckbild 4 auf die Unterlage aufgebracht werden. Über das Druckbild wird dann das DOVD 5 appliziert. Eine andere Möglichkeit wäre, zuerst das DOVD 5 anzubringen und dann, über und auf das DOVD, das Druckbild 4 zu applizieren. Die dritte Möglichkeit wäre, Druckbild 4 und DOVD 5 nebeneinander zu applizieren, das heißt, jene Fläche, die vom DOVD 5 eingenommen wird, wird beim Aufbringen des Druckbildes 4 freigelassen.The picture element according to the invention can be produced in three different ways. On the one hand, the printed image 4 can first be applied to the base. The DOVD 5 is then applied over the printed image. Another possibility would be to attach the DOVD 5 first and then to apply the printed image 4 over and over the DOVD. The third possibility would be to apply printed image 4 and DOVD 5 next to one another, that is to say that area which is occupied by DOVD 5 is left free when applying printed image 4.
Zur Aufbringung der DOVDs kann beispielsweiseFor example, to apply the DOVDs
Heißfolienprägung eingesetzt werden, es kann eine Mikroprägung von metallischer Folie erfolgen oder die DOVDs können als Folie unter dem Druckbild liegen. Die DOVDs können metallisch, farbig oder transparent sein. Wichtig ist bei den Druck- und Prägeverfahren, dass Registerhaltigkeit der Druckelemente zueinander gewährleistet ist. Hot foil stamping can be used, metallic foil can be micro-stamped, or the DOVDs can lie as a foil under the printed image. The DOVDs can be metallic, be colored or transparent. It is important in the printing and embossing processes that the register elements of the printing elements are guaranteed to be in register with one another.
