Definitions
- the invention relates to a multilayer record carrier, in particular an identification card, consisting of at least one data carrier equipped with security features, on which application-neutral and application-related data of the authorized user are provided, and with at least one transparent cover film which is glued or welded onto the data-carrying front side of the data carrier , wherein the data carrier is a security paper that has at least one security-technical high-quality, application-neutral print image as authenticity feature.
- the invention also relates to a method for producing such a record carrier.
- FR-PS 2 215152 shows a possible embodiment of an identification card. has a watermark and a print image known from the field of banknote production, printed with the necessary information and then coated on one or both sides with a transparent plastic cover film.
- the identity card described in this document has no photograph of the user.
- An identification card is already known from US Pat. No. 3,732,640, in which an image of the user is formed on a photosensitive layer applied to a support by means of lithography, so that no conventional photographic development is required. In the exemplary embodiment described, the exposure takes place by means of UV light, so that the paper and suspension layer are insensitive to daylight.
- the numerous process steps and complex devices are disadvantageous, which may be justifiable for a large series, but are unprofitable for small series. Total counterfeiting is relatively simple since the technology used is generally accessible and the carrier cannot be specially secured. The provision of background patterns or a multicolor printed image is problematic.
- An ID card is also known from DE-AS 2 163 943, in which an exposed and dusted with a color powder dusted photoconductive layer is directly laminated into the identification card as a data carrier.
- the data including an image of the user, are first generated on the photoconductive layer as a latent charge image, then made visible by means of a colored powder (toner) and this image is fixed by pasting over with a film.
- the known method is not suitable for the production of inexpensive ID cards in small series that are individually adapted to user requirements.
- the high technological complexity of the process practically requires central production.
- the presence of the various layers such as photo semiconductors, metallic barrier layers etc. favors manipulation of the card, for example by splitting.
- the laminate should also not be very resistant to use.
- US Pat. No. 4,006,050 describes a method in which the image of the user is first generated by electrophotography on a separate intermediate carrier. In a further process step, this intermediate carrier is inserted into a multilayer plastic laminate.
- the card data are printed on an easily removable outer layer or applied by electrophotographic means.
- This outer layer preferably consists of a white color layer printed on in several layers, which peels off in an erasure test. This should make it possible to identify attempts at forgery, since the printed images of deeper layers become visible after the white opaque print layer has been rubbed off.
- a process that the electrophotographic production and development of a passport photo in a. ner multilayer ID card provides is known from DE-OS 2 262 507.
- a conductive layer made of aluminum is vapor-deposited on the carrier material - plastic or paper - which is in turn superimposed on a dielectric plastic layer.
- An electrostatic latent image of the person to be identified is transferred to this dielectric layer and developed with a toner or another developer.
- the person-identifying data is consistently copied onto special intermediate layers, which are either connected in advance to other card layers or are subsequently connected.
- EPU provides for a multilayer identification card and a corresponding manufacturing process in which the user-related data are provided on a security feature Plastic media can be copied on. After the copying process, this data carrier is laminated between two further transparent plastic films.
- the invention has for its object to provide an identification card which has a significantly higher security value than the known identification cards, but which at the same time allows individual adaptation to specific user needs.
- this object is achieved by the features specified in the characterizing part of the main claim. It is based on the knowledge that the security value of the ID card is guaranteed by the standard prepared neutral data carrier, for example a security paper provided with watermark, security thread, guilloche background and steel gravure, and that the personalization of the record carrier by means of commercially available photocopying and laminating devices at almost any point can be done.
- the invention thus allows the safety-related and the user-related aspects to be separated.
- the security paper 1 shown schematically in FIG. 1 is equipped with a security thread 2, a watermark 4 and a background print 3, for example a guilloche print.
- a security thread 2 a security thread 2
- a watermark 4 a background print 3
- guilloche print a security paper 2
- Such security paper can be used in specialized paper mills in relatively large quantities using non-standard procedures. getting produced.
- the security paper is the same for all ID cards. so that the unit price can be kept low due to the resulting large quantities.
- the production of the paper taking into account the security measures that are common in the production of securities, ensures a high level of security against theft.
- the security paper is printed with certain standard background patterns, of which there only need to be a few different types, with a high-quality security printing in a specialized security printing house. Due to the continued high number of items, the demanding background printing increases the item costs only slightly.
- the security paper 1 accordingly represents a type of semi-finished product that is manufactured with relatively great effort, but since it is still application-neutral and is therefore available in large quantities, the effort per piece is justifiable.
- the central production ensures a high level of security against theft.
- the security paper 1 is preferably produced in A4 format because of its later use in a commercially available copier. Several ID cards can be punched out from such a sheet, the format being arbitrary.
- the dashed line 5 indicates a later punch line.
- FIG. 3 shows a copy template in the form of a mask 11, which is used to personalize the blank identification card.
- the format of the mask preferably corresponds to that of sheet 1, it has the same number of sheets as sheet 1.
- this mask is designed as a form in which the cardholder's data is entered with a typewriter or by hand.
- the mask has an area 12 into which a photo 14 of the identity card holder can be glued. Furthermore, an area 15 for the signature 6 of the identification card holder, such as further areas 7, 8 and 10 for the company name and further information for identifying the identification card holder.
- Certain parts of the data obtained e.g. Company name, company logo, etc. can also be copied by means of a further film mask, so that printing on the mask 11 is omitted.
- Certain sub-series within an overall series can be designed in the same way with regard to specific information with the aid of such further masks. Examples of this are departments, branches or areas of a company.
- the masks 11 can be produced inexpensively in a wide variety of variations in any number of pieces using the offset printing process, so that the appearance of the final identification cards can be changed almost arbitrarily despite only a few blank types.
- the identification cards are produced in such a way that the security paper sheets 1 are inserted by the customer into the paper magazines of existing copying machines.
- the template or mask 11 is placed on the copying window of the device and all data including the image 14 are transferred to the sheet 1 by a normal copying process.
- the blanks personalized in this way are laminated with a transparent cover film either centrally at the ID card manufacturer or in individual card laminators at the user, depending on the number of pieces. If the lamination does not take place in multiple-use sheets, the ID cards must be punched out before lamination. Otherwise the die cut is done after lamination.
- the cover film combines excellently with the data carrier and the color powder or toner.
- Manipulation such as, for example, detaching the image 9 (FIG. 2) of the finished laminated identification card that has been copied onto the blank can be practically excluded.
- the only possible counterfeiting is an unauthorized personalization of neutral printed original blanks, which can however be prevented by the user storing it appropriately. A total falsification of the high-quality printed paper blanks is not possible.
- multi-color copiers can also be used instead of the conventional black and white copiers.
- inventive idea can be applied not only to identity cards, but more generally also to other documents, securities, shares, etc. that require security.
- the method is always particularly advantageous if, on the one hand, the security against falsification and security against falsification of documents and data must be ensured, but on the other hand, the application of the individual data is to be carried out with relatively simple means.
Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen mehrschichtigen Aufzeichnungsträger, insbesondere eine Ausweiskarte, bestehend aus mindestens einem mit Sicherheitsmerkmalen ausgestatteten Datenträger, auf dem anwendungsneutrale und anwendungsbezogene Daten des berechtigten Benutzers vorgesehen sind, und mit wenigstens einer durchsichtigen Deckfolie, welche auf die datentragende Vorderseite des Datenträgers aufgeklebt oder aufgeschweisst ist, wobei der Datenträqer ein Sicherheitspapier ist, das als Echtheitsmerkmal wenigstens ein sicherungstechnisch hochwertiges, anwendungsneutrales Druckbild aufweist. Die Erfindung betrifft auch ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines solchen Aufzeichnungsträgers.The invention relates to a multilayer record carrier, in particular an identification card, consisting of at least one data carrier equipped with security features, on which application-neutral and application-related data of the authorized user are provided, and with at least one transparent cover film which is glued or welded onto the data-carrying front side of the data carrier , wherein the data carrier is a security paper that has at least one security-technical high-quality, application-neutral print image as authenticity feature. The invention also relates to a method for producing such a record carrier.
Die Verwendung von Aüsweiskarten, Kreditkarten, Einkaufskarten usw. nimmt ständig zu. Neben allgemeinen Daten sind derartige Aufzeichnungsträger auch mit personenbezogenen Daten versehen, die eine Identifizierung des berechtigten Benutzers eines solchen Aufzeichnungsträgers ermöglichen. Eine mögliche Ausführungsform einer Ausweiskarte zeigt die FR-PS 2 215152. Dabei wird ein Papierträger, der u.a. ein Wasserzeichen und ein aus dem Gebiet der Banknotenherstellung bekanntes Druckbild aufweist, mit den notwendigen Informationen bedruckt und anschliessend einseitig oder beidseitig mit einer transparenten Deckfolie aus Kunststoff überzogen. Die in dieser Schrift beschriebene Ausweiskarte weist kein Lichtbild des Benutzers auf.The use of ID cards, credit cards, shopping cards etc. is constantly increasing. In addition to general data, such recording media are also provided with personal data which enable the authorized user of such a recording media to be identified. FR-
Aus der US-PS 3 533 176 ist eine Ausweiskarte mit Papieriniett bekannt, das mit einer Fotoemulsion beschichtet ist. Zusammen mit den erforderlichen Daten wird auch ein Abbild des Benutzers durch eine entsprechende Belichtung auf die Fotoschicht aufgebracht, die durch eine durchsichtige Deckfolie geschützt sein kann.From US Pat. No. 3,533,176 an identification card with a paper rivet is known, which is coated with a photo emulsion. Together with the required data, an image of the user is also applied to the photo layer by appropriate exposure, which can be protected by a transparent cover film.
Zur Herstellung einer derartigen Ausweiskarte sind Spezialpapiere erforderlich, die eine aufwendige Lagerhaltung erfordern und deren Handhabung umständlich ist. So müssen diese Papiere vor Licht geschützt in einer Dunkelkammer lagern. Zum Aufbringen der Daten und des Bildes sind teure Spezialvorrichtungen erforderlich, die für keinen anderen Zweck einsetzbar sind und daher für Kleinserien und Kleinanwender unrentabel sind. Der Sicherheitswert dieser bekannten Ausweiskarte ist nicht allzu hoch einzuschätzen, da durch die Emulsionsschicht eine innige Verbindung zwischen Deckfolie und dem Papierinlett verhindert wird, so dass ein Auftrennen möglich ist. Totalfälschungen sind für Fachleute relativ einfach möglich, da die angewendete Technologie in einem fotografischen Labor für Einzelexemplare leicht nachvollzogen werden kann.To produce such an ID card, special papers are required, which require complex storage and whose handling is cumbersome. These papers must be stored in a dark room, protected from light. To apply the data and the image, expensive special devices are required that cannot be used for any other purpose and are therefore unprofitable for small series and small users. The security value of this known ID card should not be overestimated, since the emulsion layer prevents an intimate connection between the cover film and the paper inlay, so that it can be separated. Total counterfeiting is relatively easy for experts, since the technology used can easily be reproduced in a photographic laboratory for individual copies.
Aus der US-PS 3 732 640 ist bereits eine Ausweiskarte bekannt, bei der ein Bild des Benutzers auf einer auf einem Träger aufgebrachten lichtempfindlichen Schicht auf lithografischem Wege erzeugt wird, so dass keine übliche fotografische Entwicklung erforderlich ist. Die Belichtung erfolgt bei dem beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel durch UV-Licht, so dass Papier und Suspensionsschicht gegen- Tageslicht unempfindlich sind. Nachteilig sind jedoch die zahlreichen Verfahrensschritte und aufwendigen Vorrichtungen, die qegebenenfalls für eine Grossserie vertretbar, für Kleinserien jedoch unrentabel sind. Totalfälschungen sind relativ einfach, da die angewandte Technologie allgemein zugänglich ist und der Träger nicht speziell abgesichert werden kann. Die Vbrsehung von Hintergrundmustern oder eines Mehrfarbendruckbildes ist problematisch.An identification card is already known from US Pat. No. 3,732,640, in which an image of the user is formed on a photosensitive layer applied to a support by means of lithography, so that no conventional photographic development is required. In the exemplary embodiment described, the exposure takes place by means of UV light, so that the paper and suspension layer are insensitive to daylight. However, the numerous process steps and complex devices are disadvantageous, which may be justifiable for a large series, but are unprofitable for small series. Total counterfeiting is relatively simple since the technology used is generally accessible and the carrier cannot be specially secured. The provision of background patterns or a multicolor printed image is problematic.
Man kann den Herstellungsaufwand für derartige Ausweiskarten reduzieren, wenn man eine belichtete Filmfolie direkt mit einer beschrifteten Kunststoffolie verbindet bzw. kaschiert. Eine derartige Ausweiskarte ist aus der US-PS 3 152 901 bekannt. Auch bei dieser Lösung erfordert die Erstellung der Filmfolie weiterhin fototechnische Massnahmen, wie Arbeiten in der Dunkelkammer. Durch das Fehlen eines mit entsprechenden Echtheitsmerkmalen ausgestatteten Papierinletts wird der Sicherheitswert der Ausweiskarte beeinträchtigt. Totalfälschungen sind relativ einfach durchzuführen, da die entsprechende Technologie leicht zugänglich ist.You can reduce the manufacturing effort for such ID cards if you directly connect or laminate an exposed film with a labeled plastic film. Such an identification card is known from US Pat. No. 3,152,901. With this solution too, the creation of the film still requires photo-technical measures, such as working in the darkroom. The security value of the ID card is impaired by the lack of a paper insert equipped with appropriate authenticity features. Total counterfeiting is relatively easy to do because the technology is easily accessible.
Aus der DE-AS 2 163 943 ist auch bereits eine Ausweiskarte bekannt, bei der eine belichtete und mit einem Farbpulver bestäubte fotoleitfähige Schicht als Datenträger direkt in die Ausweiskarte einkaschiert ist. Die Daten einschliesslich eines Bildes des Benutzers werden auf der fotoleitfähigen Schicht zunächst als latentes Ladungsbild erzeugt, anschliessend durch ein Farbpulver (Toner) sichtbar gemacht und dieses Bild durch - Überkleben mit einer Folie fixiert.An ID card is also known from DE-AS 2 163 943, in which an exposed and dusted with a color powder dusted photoconductive layer is directly laminated into the identification card as a data carrier. The data, including an image of the user, are first generated on the photoconductive layer as a latent charge image, then made visible by means of a colored powder (toner) and this image is fixed by pasting over with a film.
Wegen des ausserordentlich aufwendigen Kartenaufbaus (bis zu 7 Schichten) und der komplizierten Spezialvorrichtungen, die für die Ausweiskartenherstellung notwendig sind, eignet sich das bekannte Verfahren nicht zur Herstellung kostengünstiger Ausweiskarten in Kleinserien, die individuell an Benutzerwünsche angepasst sind. Der hohe technologische Aufwand des Verfahrens erfordert praktisch eine zentrale Herstellung. Das Vorhandensein der diversen Schichten wie Fotohalbleiter, metallische Sperrschicht usw. begünstigt eine Manipulation der Karte, beispielsweise durch Spaltung. Das Laminat dürfte darüber hinaus im Gebrauch nicht sehr widerstandsfähig sein.Because of the extraordinarily complex card structure (up to 7 layers) and the complicated special devices that are necessary for the production of ID cards, the known method is not suitable for the production of inexpensive ID cards in small series that are individually adapted to user requirements. The high technological complexity of the process practically requires central production. The presence of the various layers such as photo semiconductors, metallic barrier layers etc. favors manipulation of the card, for example by splitting. The laminate should also not be very resistant to use.
Obwohl der Sicherheitswert bekannter Ausweiskarten für verschiedene Anwendungsfälle wie als Firmenausweise, Clubausweise usw. völlig ausreichend ist, gestatten die aufwendigen Herstellverfahren und -vorrichtungen nur eine zentrale Herstellung. Die dezentrale Herstellung von Kleinserien vor Ort sowie eine Nachfertigung von Einzelkarten ist infolge der dazu erforderlichen Spezialvorrichtungen und der Vielstufigkeit des Verfahrens nicht möglich. Durch die Verwendung allgemein üblicher Techniken sind im Prinzip Totalfälschungen für den Fachmann möglich.Although the security value of known ID cards is completely sufficient for various applications, such as company ID cards, club ID cards, etc., the complex manufacturing processes and devices only permit central production. The decentralized production of small series on site as well as the reproduction of single cards is not possible due to the special devices required and the multi-stage nature of the process. In general, counterfeiting is possible for a person skilled in the art by using generally customary techniques.
Der Sicherheitswert aller bekannten Ausweiskarten wird durch das Verfahren zur Datenaufbringung geprägt. Dieses somit notwendigerweise aufwendige Verfahren erlaubt keine Abänderung oder Anpassung an bestimmte Anwenderbedürfnisse.The security value of all known ID cards is shaped by the procedure for applying data. So this necessarily elaborate procedures do not allow modification or adaptation to specific user needs.
Weiterhin sind Ausweiskarten und Verfahren zu ihrer Herstellung bekannt, bei denen ein Abbild und evtl. weitere Daten auf elektrofotografischem Weg in die Karte eingebracht werden.Identification cards and methods for their production are also known, in which an image and possibly further data are introduced into the card by electrophotography.
Die US-PS 4 006 050 beschreibt ein Verfahren, in dem das Abbild des Benutzers zunächst auf einem separaten Zwischenträger elektrofotografisch erzeugt wird. In einem weiteren Verfahrensschritt wird dieser Zwischenträger in ein mehrschichtiges Kunststofflaminat eingesetzt.US Pat. No. 4,006,050 describes a method in which the image of the user is first generated by electrophotography on a separate intermediate carrier. In a further process step, this intermediate carrier is inserted into a multilayer plastic laminate.
In der US-PS 4 092 449 werden die Kartendaten auf eine leicht ablösbare Aussenschicht aufgedruckt oder auf elektrofotografischem Weg aufgebracht. Diese Aussenschicht besteht vorzugsweise aus einer in mehreren Lagen aufgedruckten weissen Farbschicht, die sich bei einem Radierversuch ablöst. Dadurch sollen Fälschungsversuche erkennbar werden, da nach Abrieb der weissen opaken Druckschicht die Druckbilder tiefer liegender Schichten sichtbar werden.In US Pat. No. 4,092,449, the card data are printed on an easily removable outer layer or applied by electrophotographic means. This outer layer preferably consists of a white color layer printed on in several layers, which peels off in an erasure test. This should make it possible to identify attempts at forgery, since the printed images of deeper layers become visible after the white opaque print layer has been rubbed off.
Ein Verfahren, dass die elektrofotografische Erzeugung und Entwicklung eines Passbildes in ei- . ner mehrschichtigen Ausweiskarte vorsieht, ist aus der DE-OS 2 262 507 bekannt. Zur Erreichung dieses Ziels wird auf das Trägermaterial - Kunststoff oder Papier - eine leitende Schicht aus Aluminium aufgedampft, der wiederum eine dielektrische Kunststoffschicht überlagert ist. Ein elektrostatisch latentes Bild der zu identifizierenden Person wird auf diese dielektrische Schicht übertragen und mit einem Toner oder einem anderen Entwickler entwickelt.A process that the electrophotographic production and development of a passport photo in a. ner multilayer ID card provides is known from DE-OS 2 262 507. To achieve this goal, a conductive layer made of aluminum is vapor-deposited on the carrier material - plastic or paper - which is in turn superimposed on a dielectric plastic layer. An electrostatic latent image of the person to be identified is transferred to this dielectric layer and developed with a toner or another developer.
In all diesen Verfahren werden die personenidentifizierenden Daten durchwegs auf spezielle Zwischenschichten aufkopiert, die entweder vorab mit anderen Kartenschichten verbunden sind oder anschliessend verbunden werden.In all of these processes, the person-identifying data is consistently copied onto special intermediate layers, which are either connected in advance to other card layers or are subsequently connected.
Aufgrund dieses Schichtaufbaus und der verwendeten Materialien ist es verhältnismässig einfach, die das Passbild tragende Schicht von der Kartenbasisschicht zu trennen und durch eine andere gefärbte Zwischen- und Deckschicht zu ersetzen. Beschädigungen an der Kartenbasisschicht sind auf diese Weise nicht festzustellen, da die neu aufgebrachten Zwischen- und Deckschichten die Basisschicht vollständig abdecken.Due to this layer structure and the materials used, it is relatively easy to separate the layer bearing the passport photo from the card base layer and to replace it with another colored intermediate and cover layer. Damage to the card base layer cannot be determined in this way, since the newly applied intermediate and cover layers completely cover the base layer.
Eine gegenüber der vorliegenden:Patentanmeldung als Stand der Technik im Sinne von Art. 54 (3) EPU zu wertende Veröffentlichung (EP-A-0012374) sieht eine mehrschichtige Ausweiskarte und ein entsprechendes Herstellungsverfahren vor, in dem die benutzerbezogenen Daten auf einen mit Sicherheitsmerkmalen ausgestatteten Kunststoff-Datenträger aufkopiert werden. Dieser Datenträger wird nach dem Kopierprozess zwischen zwei weitere transparente Kunststoffolien einkaschiert.A publication (EP-A-0012374), which is to be assessed as prior art in the sense of Art. 54 (3) EPU, provides for a multilayer identification card and a corresponding manufacturing process in which the user-related data are provided on a security feature Plastic media can be copied on. After the copying process, this data carrier is laminated between two further transparent plastic films.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Ausweiskarte zu schaffen, die gegenüber den bekannten Ausweiskarten einen wesentlichen höheren Sicherheitswert aufweist, die aber gleichzeitig eine individuelle Anpassung an bestimmte Anwenderbedürfnisse gestattet.The invention has for its object to provide an identification card which has a significantly higher security value than the known identification cards, but which at the same time allows individual adaptation to specific user needs.
Erfindungsgemäss wird diese Aufgabe durch die im Kennzeichen des Hauptanspruchs angegebenen Merkmale gelöst. Dabei wird von der Erkenntnis ausgegangen, dass der Sicherheitswert der Ausweiskarte durch den standardmässig vorbereiteten neutralen Datenträger, ein beispielsweise mit Wasserzeichen, Sicherheitsfaden, Guillochenhintergrund und Stahltiefdruck versehenes Sicherheitspapier garantiert wird, und dass die Personalisierung des Aufzeichnungsträgers mittels handelsüblicher Fotokopier- und Kaschiervorrichtungen an nahezu beliebiger Stelle erfolgen kann. Die Erfindung gestattet somit eine Trennung der sicherheitstechnischen und der anwenderbezogenen Aspekte.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features specified in the characterizing part of the main claim. It is based on the knowledge that the security value of the ID card is guaranteed by the standard prepared neutral data carrier, for example a security paper provided with watermark, security thread, guilloche background and steel gravure, and that the personalization of the record carrier by means of commercially available photocopying and laminating devices at almost any point can be done. The invention thus allows the safety-related and the user-related aspects to be separated.
Da die Herstellung und der Vertrieb von Sicherheitspapieren unter ständiger Kontrolle und strengen Sicherheitsvorkehrungen erfolgt, ist es für einen Fälscher nahezu unmöglich, sich neutrale Sicherheitspapiere zu beschaffen. Der Fälscher muss also das bereits mit aufkopierten Daten versehene und mit Deckfolien geschützte Sicherheitspapier wiederverwenden. Da sowohl die Entfernung der Deckfolien als auch die Veränderung der aufkopierten Daten zur Zerstörung des Guilloch-Druckbildes und des Sicherheitspapiers führen, sind Manipulationen leicht erkennbar.Since the production and sale of security papers is carried out under constant control and strict security precautions, it is almost impossible for a forger to obtain neutral security papers. The counterfeiter must therefore reuse the security paper that has already been copied and protected with cover films. Since both the removal of the cover foils and the change in the copied data lead to the destruction of the guilloch print image and the security paper, manipulations are easily recognizable.
Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.Advantageous developments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.
Nachfolgend ist eine Ausführungsform der Erfindung anhand der beigefügten Zeichnung beispielsweise beschrieben. Darin zeigen:
- Fig. 1 einen neutralen Bogen Sicherheitspapier als Datenträger mit gestrichelt angedeuteten Stanzlinien für die Ausweiskarten,
- Fig. 2 eine fertige Ausweiskarte,
- Fig. 3 eine Vorlage mit personenbezogenen Daten, die durch einen Kopiervorgang auf den Datenträger übertragen werden.
- 1 is a neutral sheet of security paper as a data carrier with dashed lines for the ID cards,
- 2 shows a finished identity card,
- Fig. 3 shows a template with personal data that are transferred to the data carrier by a copying process.
. Das in Fig. 1 schematisch gezeigte Sicherheitspapier 1 ist mit einem Sicherheitsfaden 2, einem Wasserzeichen 4 und einem Hintergrunddruck 3, beispielsweise einem Guillochentiefdruck, ausgestattet. Derartiges Sicherheitspapier kann in spezialisierten Papierfabriken nach gewerbeunüblichen Verfahren in relativ grossen Mengen. hergestellt werden. Das Sicherheitspapier ist für alle Ausweiskarten gleich,. so dass wegen der sich daraus ergebenden grossen Stückzahlen der Stückpreis gering gehalten werden kann. Die Herstellung des Papiers, unter Berücksichtigung der Sicherheitsmasshahmen, die bei der Fertigung von Wertpapieren üblich sind, gewährleistet eine hohe Sicherheit gegen Diebstahl. . The
Das Bedrucken des Sicherheitspapiers mit gewissen Standardhintergrundmustern, von denen es nur einige verschiedene Typen zu geben braucht, mit einem sicherheitstechnisch hochwertigen Druck erfolgt in einer darauf spezialisierten Wertpapierdruckerei. Bedingt durch die weiterhin hohen Stückzahlen erhöht auch der anspruchsvoile Hintergrunddruck die Stückkosten nur geringfügig.The security paper is printed with certain standard background patterns, of which there only need to be a few different types, with a high-quality security printing in a specialized security printing house. Due to the continued high number of items, the demanding background printing increases the item costs only slightly.
Das Sicherheitspapier 1 stellt demnach eine Art Halbzeug dar, das mit relativ hohem Aufwand gefertigt wird, da es aber noch anwendungsneutral ist und somit in grossen Stückzahlen vorliegt, ist der Aufwand pro Stück bezogen vertretbar. Durch die zentrale Herstellung kann eine hohe Sicherheit gegen Diebstahl gewährleistet werden.The
Das Sicherheitspapier 1 wird vorzugsweise im Format DIN A4 wegen seiner späteren Verwendung in einem handelsüblichen Kopiergerät hergestellt. Aus einem derartigen Bogen können mehrere Ausweiskarten ausgestanzt werden, wobei das Format beliebig ist. Die strichlierte Linie 5 deutet eine spätere Stanzlinie an.The
In Fig. 3 ist eine Kopiervorlage in Form einer Maske 11 gezeigt, die der Personalisierung des Ausweiskartenrohlings dient. Das Format der Maske entspricht vorzugsweise dem des Bogens 1, es weist deckungsgleich die gleiche Nutzenzahl wie der Bogen 1 auf. In der Praxis wird diese Maske als Formblatt ausgebildet, in das die Daten des Karteninhabers mit Schreibmaschine oder handschriftlich eingetragen werden.FIG. 3 shows a copy template in the form of a
Die Maske weist einen Bereich 12 auf, in den ein Foto 14 des Ausweiskarteninhabers eingeklebt werden kann. Weiterhin einen Bereich 15 für die Unterschrift 6 des Ausweiskarteninhabers, wie weitere Bereiche 7, 8 und 10 für Firmenname und weitere Informationen zur Identifizierung des Ausweiskarteninhabers.The mask has an
Gewisse Teile der bezogenen Daten, z.B. Firmenname, Firmenzeichen usw. können auch mittels einer weiteren Folienmaske mitkopiert werden, so dass das Aufdrucken auf die Maske 11 entfällt. Bestimmte Teilserien innerhalb einer Gesamtserie können mit Hilfe derartiger weiterer Masken hinsichtlich bestimmter Informationen gleich gestaltet werden. Beispiele dafür sind Abteilungen, Zweigstellen oder Bereiche einer Firma.Certain parts of the data obtained, e.g. Company name, company logo, etc. can also be copied by means of a further film mask, so that printing on the
Die Masken 11 können im Offset-Druckverfahren bei beliebigen Stückzahlen kostengünstig in den verschiedensten Variationen hergestellt werden, so dass das Aussehen der endgültigen Ausweiskarten trotz nur weniger Rohlingstypen nahezu beliebig geändert werden kann.The
Die Herstellung der Ausweiskarten erfolgt derart, dass die Sicherheitspapierbogen 1 vom Kunden in die Papiermagazine vorhandener Kopiergeräte eingelegt werden. Die Vorlage oder Maske 11 wird auf das Kopierfenster des Gerätes aufgelegt und sämtliche Daten einschliesslich des Bildes 14 werden durch einen normalen Kopiervorgang auf den Bogen 1 übertragen.The identification cards are produced in such a way that the
Unmittelbar nach dem Kopiervorgang werden die derart personalisierten Rohlinge je nach Stückzahl entweder zentral beim Ausweiskartenhersteller oder in Einzelkartenkaschiergeräten beim Anwender mit einer durchsichtigen Deckfolie kaschiert. Wenn die Kaschierung nicht in Mehrnutzenbögen stattfindet, müssen die Ausweiskarten vor dem Kaschieren aufgestanzt werden. Andernfalls erfolgt die Stanzung nach dem Kaschieren.Immediately after the copying process, the blanks personalized in this way are laminated with a transparent cover film either centrally at the ID card manufacturer or in individual card laminators at the user, depending on the number of pieces. If the lamination does not take place in multiple-use sheets, the ID cards must be punched out before lamination. Otherwise the die cut is done after lamination.
Da handelsübliche Kopiergeräte die Papieroberfläche kaschiertechnisch gesehen nicht verändern (keine Emulsionsschicht), verbindet sich die Deckfolie hervorragend mit dem Datenträger und dem Farbpulver bzw. Toner. Eine Manipulation wie beispielsweise ein Herauslösen des auf den Rohling aufkopierten Bildes 9 (Fig. 2) der fertig kaschierten Ausweiskarte kann praktisch ausgeschlossen werden.Since commercially available copying machines do not change the paper surface from a lamination point of view (no emulsion layer), the cover film combines excellently with the data carrier and the color powder or toner. Manipulation such as, for example, detaching the image 9 (FIG. 2) of the finished laminated identification card that has been copied onto the blank can be practically excluded.
Die einzige Fälschungsmöglichkeit besteht in einer unberechtigten Personalisierung neutraler bedruckter Original-Rohlinge, die jedoch durch eine entsprechend sichere Aufbewahrung beim Anwender verhindert werden kann. Auch eine Totalfälschung der sicherheitstechnisch hochwertigen bedruckten Papierrohlinge ist nicht möglich.The only possible counterfeiting is an unauthorized personalization of neutral printed original blanks, which can however be prevented by the user storing it appropriately. A total falsification of the high-quality printed paper blanks is not possible.
Selbstverständlich können statt der handelsüblichen Schwarzweiss-Kopiergeräte auch Mehrfarbkopiergeräte eingesetzt werden.Of course, multi-color copiers can also be used instead of the conventional black and white copiers.
Es ist darüber hinaus offensichtlich, dass der Erfindungsgedanke nicht nur bei Ausweiskarten, sondern ganz allgemein auch bei anderen, sicherungsbedürftigen Dokumenten, Wertpapieren, Aktien usw. anwendbar ist. Das Verfahren ist immer dann besonders vorteilhaft, wenn einerseits die Fälschungssicherheit und Verfälschungssicherheit von Dokument und Daten sichergestellt sein muss, wenn aber anderseits die Aufbringung der individuellen Daten mit relativ einfachen Mitteln erfolgen soll.It is also obvious that the inventive idea can be applied not only to identity cards, but more generally also to other documents, securities, shares, etc. that require security. The method is always particularly advantageous if, on the one hand, the security against falsification and security against falsification of documents and data must be ensured, but on the other hand, the application of the individual data is to be carried out with relatively simple means.
