Definitions
- the invention relates to a raster image which at least two types of different properties having halftone dots and in one Thermal transfer process is generated. Furthermore, it deals yourself with a thermal transfer film to produce a such raster image, the from a carrier film on the Transferable transfer layer for generating the substrate different grid points one of the number of number corresponding to different halftone dots corresponding to a grid point type has differently trained areas.
- JP-A-61-102289 discloses a recording material which can be found under Exposure to heat but without a transfer process creates a raster image.
- the known thermal transfer printing processes work for
- thermal transfer film whose Transfer layer is divided into several areas, where each color has its own area of the transfer layer assigned.
- the Thermal transfer film according to the desired color the substrate moves and colored halftone dots using the Printing tool generated, generally the different colored areas of the transfer layer
- the dimensions of thermal transfer film correspond to the printing substrate.
- the invention is therefore based on the object, further To develop design options for raster images, without a particularly large expenditure on equipment should be.
- a raster image of the type mentioned train such that at least two types of Grid dots each have different dimensions exhibit.
- the distance between the halftone dots or their density is changed.
- halftone dots to provide different dimensions, a possibility which has never been used before Areas of the raster image with lower color density thereby are generated that halftone dots of smaller diameter be used while when a rich color or good coverage should be achieved, screen dots larger Diameter are provided.
- This variation of Screen dot size is especially favorable when the Raster dots have a special structure and e.g. are reflective, because in such a case by the Variation of the halftone dot size is a particularly even one Effect with respect to the respective structure is achieved.
- Raster images for example, as security elements for Documents of value, such as Banknotes, credit cards, ID cards or something like that, again and again, especially with the help the modern color copier, trying to fake, are particularly suitable.
- the optically effective Structure of at least one type of halftone dots Diffraction or interference generating diffraction structure is preferably a lattice structure.
- the structure to be used depends on whether that Raster image in reflecting light or in transmitted light is observed.
- a raster image as optical to develop a variable picture in such a way that the raster image depending on lighting or Viewing angle or the wavelength of the lighting light used changes, being in the simplest form only the colors vary.
- two types of halftone dots different Diffraction structure by means of which e.g. alphanumeric Characters can be generated in such a case be achieved that the color of the characters on the one hand and the background, on the other hand, depends on Viewing angle or the one used for lighting Light changes.
- a thermal transfer film of the type mentioned at the outset Production of a raster image according to the invention is characterized in that the transfer layer in the different areas different dots Has dimensions, for example always with the same To be able to work at point density, but nevertheless Possibility to have denser or less densely printed To create places of the raster image on the substrate.
- a thermal transfer film can also be useful be trained that the different areas of Transfer layer one optically different have an effective structure.
- To generate the raster image are then from the different areas of Transfer layer with the optically different effective Structure the halftone dots on the substrate transferred, for this purpose the thermal transfer film in the way known from thermal color printers and must be moved relative to the substrate in order to each the area of the transfer layer that the desired Surface structure has over the corresponding Bring the place of the substrate.
- the Transfer layer at least in one area has reflective layer
- the reflective Layer is expediently formed by a metallization, because then the raster image is made of reflective and non-reflective areas can be composed or, if all areas of the transfer layer are reflective, images are special Let brightness achieve.
- optically effective structure of the transfer layer a diffraction or interference-generating diffraction structure, is in particular lattice structure.
- the transfer layer is in at least one area following the carrier film has a transparent protective lacquer layer, because then the Abrasion resistance of the generated on the substrate Raster image can be enlarged.
- a transparent protective lacquer layer can advantageously in at least two areas the transfer layer has different colors, which opens up the possibility of multi-colored To produce raster images.
- the optically effective structure of the transfer layer is advantageously generated by being in a Lacquer layer of the transfer layer is embossed.
- Corresponding embossing processes are from the production of Hot stamping foils with diffraction structures etc. are known.
- the structures are merged into one using a matrix thermoplastic or not fully cured paint embossed.
- the Protective lacquer layer on the optical structure covers a substrate applied transfer layer because then an impression and thus a forgery is difficult, if not made impossible. At the same time this increases the durability of the raster image, because the surface structure against direct mechanical Attacks is protected.
- Thermal transfer film compared to known Thermal transfer films should be emphasized that at Thermal transfer film according to the invention at least in one Area structuring the surface of the on the Substrate to be transferred must be transferred, which is why a correspondingly deformable layer is provided have to be. More details on the composition of the Layers and their thickness are explained below.
- the raster image shown in Fig. 1 consists of four different types of halftone dots. Accordingly has the thermal transfer sheet shown in Figs. 2 and 3 four different areas in succession A, B, C and D, by means of which the screen dots of the types a, b, c and d are generated.
- Type a halftone dots are relatively large, according to the dimensions of the for the transfer process used tool closely connected Halftone dots with a smooth, in the present example formed reflective by metallic coating Surface.
- Type b halftone dots are also proportional large area and have a total of one reflective layer provided surface.
- raster dots of type b are Section B is indicated, clearly structured, whereby the screen dots of type b preferably with one Lattice structure or generally with a diffraction or Interference-generating diffraction structure is provided.
- the halftone dots of type c and d differ from each other one in terms of their diameter.
- the grid points of the Type d have a much larger diameter than that Type c halftone dots.
- Halftone dot types a, b, c and d each with one reflective layer provided so that the raster image 1 appears overall metallic reflective, so that it is particularly useful as a security element for a value document or the like can be used.
- one comprises Thermal transfer film for producing a raster image according to the invention usually a carrier film 1, the on his facing when using the thermal bar, in 3 top side a sliding layer 2 known per se wearing.
- a layer consisting of several layers On the side opposite the sliding layer 2 of the carrier film 1 is a layer consisting of several layers, provided with a total of 3 designated transfer layer detached from the carrier film 1 in the thermal transfer process and on the substrate, which is not in the drawing is shown, for example a paper sheet or the like, is set.
- the transfer layer 3 comprises, starting from the carrier film 1, definitely a layer of paint and one for Definition of the lacquer layer on the substrate serving Usually heat-sealable adhesive layer 4.
- the structure of the Transfer layer 3 a little more complicated. In doing so assumed that the halftone dots each one reflective layer formed by a metallization 5 or 5 '.
- the carrier film 1 In order to easily detach the transfer layer 3 from the To ensure carrier film 1, the carrier film 1 is in front the application of the remaining layers of the transfer layer 3 with a release layer 6, usually a wax layer Mistake. The wax layer 6 then closes in generally a layer 7 of a transparent protective lacquer on. In addition, there is normally between the adhesive layer 4 and the metallization 5 or 5 'an adhesion promoter layer 8 provided.
- the transfer layer 3 of the thermal transfer film according to FIG. 2 and 3 agrees in the different areas A, B, C and D. to the extent that there is always a release layer 6, one transparent protective lacquer layer 7, a metallization 5 or 5 ', the adhesion promoter layer 8 and the adhesive layer 4th are provided.
- area A which is used to form the smooth, large-area halftone dots a is a full-surface, smooth metallization 5 directly on the protective lacquer layer 7 intended.
- the areas B of the thermal transfer film that are used for generation of type b halftone dots are also provided with a metallization 5 'over the entire surface.
- the lacquer layer 9 For example, be formed by a thermoplastic lacquer or even from a varnish that is still in a certain time is deformable, so that in a replication process corresponding structure for the metallization 5 'in the Paint layer 9 can be impressed.
- the grid points too of type b are according to the points of type a generated in that a corresponding to the size of the dot Part separated from the transfer layer 3 and by means of of the dot is transferred to the substrate.
- the size of the generated dots depends on the Screen dots of type a and b only from the resolution the thermal printer used to generate the halftone dots or other tool.
- areas C and D are the Thermal transfer film such that the size of the resulting Grid dots of type c and d the size of the corresponding transfer tool is independent.
- Areas C and D is the one that appears Size of the halftone dots by the area of the existing one Metallization 5 or 5 'specified. So this means that in areas C and D, which are basically the Correspond to areas A and B, the metallization 5, 5 ' is only provided in certain areas.
- the Metallization is in the form of corresponding halftone dots provided, in areas C the metallization smooth, in areas D, however, according to the area B is structured.
- a dot is used whose diameter is larger (or is also smaller) than the diameter of the metallized sections representing type c or b halftone dots the metallization 5 or 5 '.
- dots that match the grid points of the Types a and b cover the entire surface of the substrate enable by means of halftone dots.
- the additional Type c halftone dots appear shiny while the Type d halftone dots due to the corresponding Structure, for example a lattice structure, special optical Are able to produce effects.
- the screen dots of type d seem to be larger than that of the Type c, because of the metallization Sections 5 'are larger than the metallization sections 5.
- the grid points of types a, b, c and d differ thus, as explained above, on the one hand by the Structure.
- the grid points of type a and c have one smooth surface, while the dots of type b and d are provided with an optically effective structure, wherein this structure is preferably a diffraction or Diffraction structure generating interference, expedient is a lattice structure.
- the halftone dots differ different types also, at least apparently, in terms of their size.
- the halftone dots of type a and b are in shown embodiment large, so that when Dot by dot using the thermal transfer printer Point are transferred to the entire surface of the substrate is covered.
- the halftone dots are the Types c and d seemingly smaller, so that even with Transfer of a raster point to each for this intended location of the substrate nonetheless full coverage of the substrate with halftone dots c and d takes place.
- this effect is This case only achieved in that the optically in Appearance of the surface of the halftone dots, e.g. the Metallization 5.5 ', has different dimensions.
- the transparent protective lacquer layer 7 or to color structurable paint 9 accordingly.
- the Procedure according to the invention can also always be used if only in one or metallization is provided in some areas, other areas of the thermal transfer film, however, none Have metallization.
- Raster images according to the invention can thus in the realize different embodiments, wherein by appropriate variation of the screen dot diameter, the halftone dot structure and color Design wishes a variety of options is opened.
- the thermal transfer film can basically be constructed as follows: Sliding layer (2) Layer thickness 0.1 to 1.0 ⁇ m Carrier film (1) Polyethylene terephthalate with a layer thickness of 3.5 to 12 ⁇ m Release layer (6) drip Wax layer (ester wax with point 90 ° C) layer thickness 0.005 to 0.05 ⁇ m Protective varnish (7) Layer thickness 0.4 to 2.0 ⁇ m Structurable lacquer layer (9) Layer thickness 0.2 to 1.2 ⁇ m Metal (5.5 ') over the entire surface or partially Aluminum with a layer thickness of 0.005 ⁇ m to 0.05 ⁇ m Bonding Agent (8) Layer thickness 0.2 to 1.2 ⁇ m Heat sealable adhesive layer (4) Layer thickness 0.5 to 5 ⁇ m
- Structurable lacquer layer (9) Parts by weight Methyl ethyl ketone 400 Ethyl acetate 260 Butyl acetate 160 Polymethyl methacrylate (softening point approx. 170 ° C) 150 Styrene copolymer (softening point approx.
- the partial metallization of the transfer layer 3 in the areas C and D is produced in a generally known manner.
- the etch resist is advantageously applied with an electronically engraved anilox roller, which usually prints at least two halftone fields with different halftone dot sizes or halftone dot densities.
- the following dimensions can be used: Dot density 54 / cm Depth of engraving 50 ⁇ m Cup diagonal 110 ⁇ m ⁇ 5 ⁇ m Web width 75 ⁇ m ⁇ 5 ⁇ m respectively. Cup size: 125 ⁇ m ⁇ 5 ⁇ m Web width 60 ⁇ m ⁇ 5 ⁇ m respectively. Cup diagonal 170 ⁇ m ⁇ 5 ⁇ m Web width 15 ⁇ m ⁇ 5 ⁇ m
- the uncovered areas of metallization 5.5 ' can after the application of the etching resist and its appropriate hardening, for example with an aqueous, alkaline solution (pH ⁇ 10) etched off at room temperature will.
- the partial metallization can, however, also according to others methods known from the literature, e.g. under use from water / alcohol-soluble blocking funds, in other Etching technology or also by means of laser ablation, for example with an Nd-YAG laser.
- a full-surface metallized thermal transfer film (see areas A, B of the Embodiment), preferably several different trained, optically effective structures has a grid pattern on the substrate, e.g. a Transfer plastic card.
- the control of the Thermal transfers are conveniently carried out via a Control computer and a suitably modular structure Software system.
- a thermal printer can be used with a resolution of 16 dots / mm.
- the Grids can have a wide variety of shapes, e.g. Circular shape, Rectangular in shape, with rounded corners, etc.
- the other option (according to working with the Areas C and D of the thermal transfer film of the Embodiment) is that a partial metallized thermal transfer film is used, the corresponding to areas C and D, for example has different, optically effective structures, with additional grid areas due to the partial metallization different point sizes are generated. Also in this Case, the raster image is transferred over the entire surface of Image areas created, however, different Have halftone dot size or halftone dot density.
- optically effective surface structures like this e.g. in areas B and D of the embodiment variations can be provided by differences in the grid line number (500 - 2000 lines / mm), the Grid line depth (0.2 - 2.0 ⁇ m) and the grid shape (Line, rectangular or sinusoidal lattice structure) be, with the appropriate structures in adjustment the desired effect can be freely selected or combined.
- the different areas of the raster image or the Halftone dot types therefore differ by different size, different optically effective Structure and possibly different color, which means that a raster image according to the invention is extremely can be designed and assembled in many ways.
- special structures can also be achieved that the raster image high security against counterfeiting, offers in particular by means of color copying.
- the different coloring of the halftone dots is due to different coloring of the protective lacquer layer achieved.
