Definitions
- the invention relates to a security document which is produced from a plurality of substrate layers, and to the production thereof.
- the invention relates to such security documents comprising microperforated opaque substrate layers.
- Modern value and / or security documents in particular card-shaped value and / or security documents made of polycarbonate (PC), are often produced in the form of composite bodies.
- the composites are made up of several
- Substrate layers together wherein the substrate layers are laminated into a composite body.
- security documents which comprise at least one security feature.
- Security features are those features that make it difficult to imitate, falsify and / or duplicate a document.
- security documents often include individual security features that are difficult to produce, security documents are often corrupted. This means that manipulations are performed on a genuine and authorized security document, for example by modifying individual information stored in the document. For example, for security documents associated with a person, such as passports, identity cards, driver's licenses,
- Identification cards or the like in this case, for example, a person identifying data exchanged and / or modified.
- an attempt is made to arrange security features inside the security document in order to make access to these security features more difficult.
- microperforations are created. At the positions where such apertures are formed, light may pass through the opaque layer.
- a microperforation can form personalized and / or non-personalized patterns. If a security document is provided with such an opaque substrate layer or material layer, then the pattern or the Microperforation with appropriate lighting, such as a backlight, for a human observer or by means of technical aids visible and verifiable.
- a security document comprises at least one further opaque substrate or material layer.
- perforations or a micro-perforation are also formed, can pass through the light. If the openings of the opaque substrate or material layer and the openings of the further opaque substrate or material layer are positioned corresponding to one another, then light can pass through the openings of both layers. In this way, different, even from the
- a disadvantage of the above-mentioned security documents and methods is that, when using at least two opaque substrate or material layers with introduced perforations or microperforations, a precise arrangement of the two layers one above the other is necessary, so that the individual openings lie one above the other in pairs and light through both apertures the one as well as the other opaque substrate or material layer can pass through. Even a small deviation of the relative positions leads to unwanted optical effects, ranging from unwanted brightness variations by partial coverage of the openings to complete covering or covering and unwanted
- Patterning can range.
- Microperforations include the use of such microperforations in partially transparent electronic document cards where electronic elements are located between and concealed by the two opaque substrate or material layers. It is thus desirable to have a security document and a security document manufacturing method in which the placement of at least two opaque substrate layers having apertures therein is improved so that no spurious patterning occurs.
- the invention is therefore based on the problem to provide a security document and a manufacturing method in which arranging the openings in different substrate layers is simplified and thus improved.
- the invention is based on the idea to change the geometric shape of the cross sections of the openings so that an arrangement of openings in two opaque layers is simplified one above the other. This is achieved by the
- the geometric shapes have a longitudinal direction, which have a relation to transverse directions, larger, preferably even maximum, extent.
- Substrate layer or material layer are or are then compared to the
- the targeted positioning or arranging the openings in the at least two opaque layers additionally makes it possible to adjust the brightness values for each pixel formed from a pair of apertures, so that a further dimension for influencing the visual impression is created.
- a security document is any document that comprises at least one security feature, usually a plurality of different security features.
- Security documents include, for example, ID documents, passports, identity cards, identification cards, driving licenses, vehicle registration documents,
- each feature is referred to, which makes an imitation, falsification, manipulation or the like of an object impossible or difficult.
- the substrate layer is here understood in each case as a self-supporting flat entity.
- Flat in this context means that a material thickness of the substrate layer perpendicular to a planar extension of a top and a bottom, which are oriented substantially parallel to each other, is substantially smaller than the edge lengths of these top and bottom.
- a substrate layer may in particular in the form of a Film can be provided, which can be present as a sheet or endless material from a roll.
- a substrate layer perpendicular to the main surfaces has a uniform material thickness measured at all locations parallel to the surface normal.
- a bulk layer is a layer having a finite layer thickness of an article, in particular a composite body.
- the material layer is considered to be a bulk layer in a composite which has a substantially homogeneous nature with regard to its thermoplastic base material.
- Openings are hollow volumes that form a connection between two opposing surfaces through a substrate layer.
- An opening represents the smallest unit of a microperforation, but in the following a multiplicity of such openings need not necessarily be arranged regularly or uniform. Preference is given to openings with a diameter of 0.2 mm to 2.5 mm. In particularly preferred embodiments, the
- Perforations diameter ranging from 0.3 mm to 2 mm. In very particularly preferred embodiments, the diameters are in the range of 0.4 mm to 1.7 mm. By diameter is meant the largest extent of an aperture across the aperture direction.
- the opening direction is the direction along which the opening is formed. This direction may coincide with or be inclined with a surface normal of the substrate layer. In case of doubt, the direction of breakthrough, the direction assumed, is perpendicular to the maximum diameter.
- transparent or translucent and opaque refer in each case to the state which a material assumes after lamination with the high-temperature high-pressure lamination process.
- polycarbonate films which form transparent layers of material in the finished composite body are often in front of the latter
- An opaque substrate layer which is likewise produced, for example, on a polycarbonate basis, can be made opaque, for example via additives of titanium dioxide, so-called titanium white.
- An arrangement pattern denotes a set of apertures arranged in the form of a pattern such as a character, a number or an image. The arrangement pattern can comprise both information about a position and an orientation of the openings on a substrate or material layer.
- Non-rotationally symmetrical cross-sectional areas of apertures have one or optionally a plurality of preferred directions, which are determined by means of predetermined
- Criteria can or can be determined. A sense of a maximum
- Longitudinal extent or longitudinal extent of the cross-sectional area can be selected as excellent direction.
- that straight line path with maximum extension, which connects two points of the cross-sectional area can define the preferred direction.
- the direction of the route determines the preferred direction.
- an orientation is usually irrelevant, at least if the cross-sectional area is symmetrical to the line indicating the preferred direction.
- the main axis passing through both focal points may indicate the preferred direction.
- the preferred direction may be indicated, for example, by a maximum-length path which has a centroid of the cross-sectional area with another point of the
- Cross-sectional area connects.
- the centroid is the point in the plane of the cross-sectional area for which the first moment of the points of the cross-sectional area is zero. If there are several preferential directions according to one criterion, several predefined criteria can be used together for the determination, in order to arrive at a clear preferred direction as far as possible. However, if a cross-sectional area has a symmetry, then several directions can be similar. It can then be selected a direction. The preferred direction is due to the shape of the
- Cross-sectional area set transversely to the direction of breakthrough.
- the preferred direction of the cross-sectional area of an opening also determines the preferred direction of
- the case of a rectangular (not square) cross-sectional area will be considered here.
- the diagonals set equal preferential directions with respect to the criterion that the direction is determined by the maximum-length path connecting two points of the cross-sectional area. If one chooses, however, as the criterion that a direction of the path of maximum length is selected as the preferred direction, with respect to which the cross-sectional area has a mirror symmetry, the choice of the preferred direction becomes clear.
- the distance (center-long distance), which connects the centers of the short side edges determines the preferred direction.
- suitable criteria for a particular cross-sectional shape in order to determine a predetermined by the form suitable and preferably unique preferred direction.
- a direction of a longitudinal side edge can also be selected as a criterion for the determination.
- Breakthroughs are rotated against each other when the cross-sectional areas are rotated perpendicular to the respective aperture directions against each other.
- Cross-sectional areas are rotated relative to one another if their preferred directions (or, in the case of a plurality of equivalent preferred directions, corresponding to one another)
- Preferred directions intersect at an angle. If the openings are formed in different layers of material which are superimposed on one another, the preferred direction of the one cross-sectional area of the one opening in the one material layer along the opening direction of the other opening in the other material layer is in the plane of the cross-sectional area of the other
- Cross-sectional area is this, at least for the specified by the longitudinal central axis preferred direction, not the case.
- a triangular cross-sectional area of a non-equilateral triangle there is a natural preferred direction, which can also be assigned a preference orientation.
- apertures or their cross-sectional areas "rotated or rotated at an angle to one another" means that their preferred directions intersect at an angle when projecting into a common plane The imaginary axis of rotation is perpendicular to this common plane.
- Two cross-sectional areas overlap one another with respect to a direction when, after being projected along this direction, they are in a common plane whose
- a security document comprising a laminated document body having a front side and a back side, the laminated document body having at least two opaque material layers each having an inner side and an outer side, the inner sides of the at least two opaque ones
- Openings in a plane of the material layers are not formed rotationally symmetric, wherein a plurality of cross-sectional areas of the openings of one of the at least two opaque material layers is rotated relative to cross-sectional areas of the openings in a second of the at least two opaque material layers.
- a method for producing a security document comprising the following steps: providing at least two opaque substrate layers each having an inner side and an outer side, the inner sides of the at least two opaque layers facing one another, and the at least two opaque ones Substrate layers have openings; Arranging the first and second of the at least two opaque substrate layers to form a substrate layer stack, laminating the substrate layer stack to one
- Openings in a second of the at least two opaque layers of material is twisted.
- the advantage of the invention is that the asymmetrical cross-sectional areas of the openings of the substrate layers are easier to arrange one above the other, so that a larger tolerance range with respect to the arrangement of the openings is present in the production of the security document. This increases the quality and the
- Material layers are arranged, they are all at least in the area in which the openings are formed in the at least two opaque material layers, all at least translucent, preferably all clear and transparent.
- the openings can be introduced for example by means of a laser processing.
- areas in which openings are to be formed are locally heated with a laser, so that it leads to a plastic deformation of the
- Openings can be refilled during subsequent lamination by receiving transparent material of adjacent substrate layers.
- Laser processing allows a flexible and made for each
- the introduced apertures can be formed, at least in partial regions of one of the at least two opaque substrate or material layers, at an angle to the surface normal of the plane.
- the openings, at least in partial areas of one of the at least two opaque material layers, may be formed parallel to the surface normal of the plane.
- Symmetrieverminderung have.
- a particularly advantageous embodiment therefore provides that a geometric shape of the cross-sectional areas of the
- Breakthroughs in each case a longitudinal direction can be assigned, wherein the geometric shape in the longitudinal direction has a greater expansion in comparison with dimensions in transverse directions.
- the cross-sectional areas of the openings in a plane of the material layers have the form of ellipsoids, rectangles, crescents or rhombuses.
- Openings in the plane of the material layers each have a preferred direction.
- the preferred direction is in each case the direction of the longitudinal direction of
- Material layers arranged at least one transparent or translucent material layer is also referred to here as an intermediate layer.
- opaque security features or structures may be formed or arranged, for example a microchip and antenna structures or the like.
- a direct light path starting from the apertures in the first of the at least two opaque substrate or material layers toward the apertures in the second of the at least two opaque substrate or material layers is then no longer necessary.
- a difference in the observable brightness between openings with a direct passage of light and "indirectly" backlit apertures is not or barely perceptible. If pattern arrangements of the apertures in the two opaque substrate or material layers are then formed differently, the optical impressions of the front and the back are differently.
- the openings in the opaque substrate or material layers are arranged one above the other so that in certain areas light can pass through the openings of both opaque substrate or material layers and thus becomes visible on the opposite side .
- Cross-sectional areas of the openings of the one of the at least two opaque substrate or material layers and the cross-sectional areas of the openings of the second of the at least two opaque substrate or material layers, at least for a part of the cross-sectional areas of the openings, each, at least partially, one above the other with respect to an excellent viewing direction are arranged.
- One above the other means that light can penetrate in a straight line directly from the front of the document body to the back of the document body, or light can penetrate directly from the back of the document body to the front of the document body. This effect can be realized with the at least one transparent or translucent material layer or without the at least one transparent or translucent material layer.
- the cross-sectional areas of the openings each have the same shape. This facilitates the
- Manufacturing process for example, the fact that parameter values of the geometric shapes of the openings are the same. This reduces the planning effort. In addition, results for a viewer a uniform visual impression for each of the openings.
- Material layers in the plane of the substrate or material layers in each case with respect to a rotational axis which is oriented transversely or perpendicular to the substrate or material layers are rotated at an angle to each other.
- the apertures are provided for viewing under a viewing direction which does not coincide with the direction of the surface normal of the
- cross-sectional areas are preferably based on this viewing direction or their preferred directions with respect to this
- the cross-sectional areas of the openings each have the same shape. To provide a see-through security feature, it is advantageous if the
- Cross-sectional surfaces of the openings of the second of the at least two opaque material layers overlap are rotated in the plane of the material layers in each case at an angle to each other.
- Security documents which comprise individual information in the form of a personalized security feature can be regarded as being particularly secure against counterfeiting or imitation. Therefore, an embodiment in which it is provided that an arrangement pattern of the
- Cross-sectional areas of the openings in at least one of the at least two opaque substrate or material layers forms or represents a personalization information.
- arrangement patterns in the form of numbers, letters, texts or images are possible.
- an arrangement pattern be it personalized or not personalized, can be designed.
- the openings of the first and the second of the at least two opaque material layers are positioned and / or formed in the same arrangement patterns.
- the visual impression of the array patterns may be identical or substantially identical to an optical impression when viewed from the back.
- the visual impression when viewed from the back can also correspond to a mirrored optical impression of the front.
- a third embodiment of the arrangement pattern is possible.
- the openings of the first and the second of the at least two opaque substrate or material layers are positioned and / or formed in different arrangement patterns.
- the arrangement patterns are then different when viewing the front side and when viewing the back side, and also can not be converted into one another via symmetry operations.
- a particularly advantageous embodiment provides that in particular at
- Material layer between the at least two opaque material layers, at least one of the at least two opaque substrate or material layers, at least on the insides is white.
- the insides of the at least two opaque substrate or material layers are white. This has the advantage that light that through the openings of the one of the at least two opaque substrate or
- Material layers has already entered into the transparent substrate or material layer, reflected on the or the insides and / or at least remitted and / or scattered, so that a total of repeated reflection, remission and / or scattering takes place within the transparent substrate or material layer , This makes it possible, for example, for areas which have openings for only one of the at least two opaque substrate or material layers to become accessible to backlighting. So light that is at a different position through the
- Breakthroughs of one of the at least two opaque layers repeatedly passes from the insides, remitted and / or scattered and thus reaches a non-directly illuminated area, where it emerges through the apertures in the second of the at least two substrate or material layers
- the openings of the first of the at least two opaque Substratg. Material layers and the openings of the second of the at least two opaque substrate or material layers are arranged so that when viewing the observers facing openings for different areas on the security document different brightness values are generated. In this way it is possible to create images with different brightness values and to provide an additional feature to increase the security against counterfeiting.
- Different brightness values are achieved, for example, in that the overlap of two apertures arranged one above the other is or will be of different sizes. Depending on how large the overlap is, then more or less light can pass directly through the cross section formed jointly by the two openings. Another possibility is the variation of the size and / or geometric shape of a cross section of the individual openings. This also makes it possible, above all, to achieve different brightness values for the same area on a front side and a rear side of the security document.
- Breakthroughs in the at least two opaque substrate or material layers may provide another security feature in the security document.
- the security feature is formed in the form that in each case only one pattern arrangement is visible on the side of the security document facing a viewer, without the pattern arrangement of the side facing away from the viewer being visible.
- Inner sides of the at least two opaque layers of material are selected so that when backlighting the back of the document body and at the same time
- the dimensions of the cross sections of the openings for example, be> 100 ⁇ , for example, the layer thickness of the transparent Substratz. Material layer between the at least two opaque substrate or
- Material layers larger than the dimensions can be selected. Light that passes through the apertures in the opaque substrate or material layer on the side facing away from the viewer in the document body is then often enough reflected and / or remitted and / or scattered within the transparent substrate or material layer, so that a diffuse and homogeneous backlighting of the openings in the opaque substrate or material layer takes place on the side facing the observer. In the homogeneous backlighting, the pattern arrangement of the openings in the opaque layer on the side facing away from the viewer no longer off. Thus, only the pattern arrangement of the openings in the opaque layer on the side facing the viewer is visible. If the security document is turned to the other side and viewed from there, the same effect can be achieved, provided that the openings in the second of the at least two opaque substrate or
- Material layers are selected accordingly. Decisive here is always that a backlight in a viewer for the apertures facing him, the leaking light at least partially originates from a direct radiation, does not cause particularly high brightness to breakthroughs whose light only from a multiple reflection, remittance and / or scattering in the transparent substrate or material layer produced diffuse backlighting comes.
- the homogeneous backlighting can provide low brightness as a base value.
- the apertures are made larger, so that a total of more light can pass through the apertures of the side facing the observer. In this way, a plurality of pattern arrangements can be formed, which have different bright areas.
- a security document according to the invention may also comprise further security features. These can be applied to the at least two opaque or else further substrate layers, for example by means of printing processes.
- the security features may also be holograms of any kind or electronic components.
- the document body may also comprise one or more protective layers.
- the substrate layers or the document body preferably consists of

- 1 1 is a schematic flow diagram of the method for producing a security document according to the invention.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic representation of a cross section through a
- the security document 1 shown in the prior art.
- the security document 1 in this case comprises a plurality of material layers 3 formed from substrate layers 2.
- Such substrate layers 2 or material layers 3 may be formed, for example, as transparent substrate layers 4, as opaque substrate layers 5 or as substrate layers 2 with electronic components 6.
- the opaque substrate layers 5 are identified by hatching in FIG. 1 and in the following.
- the opaque 5 substrate layers 2 have round apertures 7, 7 ', which cause light at the positions of the perforations 7, 7' formed by hollow volumes to pass through the opaque substrate layers 2.
- FIG. 2 shows a schematic plan view of an opaque substrate layer 5 from the prior art.
- the opaque substrate layer 5 comprises round openings 7 arranged in a regular pattern arrangement 8.
- FIG. 3 shows a schematic plan view of a prior art security document 1 according to the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, in which two opaque substrate layers 5, each with round apertures 7, 7 ', are arranged incorrectly one above the other.
- the first opaque substrate layer 9 is displaced laterally relative to the second opaque substrate layer 10, so that the round apertures 7, 7 'of both opaque substrate layers 9, 10 are not arranged exactly one above the other.
- the consequence of the erroneous arrangement is that unwanted patterns 1 1 can arise, which too
- FIG. 4 is a cross section through a simple embodiment of the invention is shown.
- a security document 1 comprises a document body 200.
- Document body 200 in this case comprises a first opaque material layer 201 and a second opaque material layer 202, which are arranged one above the other.
- the respective inner sides 205 of the two opaque material layers 201, 202 face each other and the respective outer sides 206 point in the direction of the front 30 and the back 31 of the document body 200.
- a transparent material layer 203 is arranged between the two opaque material layers 201, 202.
- the document body 200 is protected on its front side 30 and its rear side 31 by an optional protective layer 204. Openings 12 are introduced into the first opaque material layer 201 so that light can pass through the first opaque material layer 201 at these locations. Also in the second opaque
- Material layer 202 perforations 12 ' are formed, wherein they have a greater extent in cross-section than the openings 12 in the first opaque material layer 201, since their longitudinal directions 14, 14' are oriented at right angles to each other.
- the direction 14 is perpendicular to the plane of action. Because the
