Abstract

The safety unit has a carrier substrate, and a printed layer in the form of lines or other geometries, where the layer is arranged on the substrate. An analog signal is realized in printing by a leading and trailing edge modulation for forming the printed layer, and is developed as a completely printed unit. The analog signal is converted into acoustic signal by detecting and reading the signal with software, where the acoustic signal is present in the form of word, text, noise or music.

Description

Als Sicherheitsmerkmale, insbesondere für Wertdokumente, Datenträger und Verpackungen sind Merkmale mit optischen, optisch aktiven, elektrisch leitfähigen oder magnetischen Eigenschaften bekannt.
Hochentwickelte Sicherheitselemente weisen unter anderem auch Speicherelemente, wie Chips oder Magnetstreifen auf, auf denen unterschiedlichste Daten digital gespeichert werden und zum Nachweis der Authentizität detektiert und ausgelesen werden können.
As security features, in particular for value documents, data carriers and packaging, features with optical, optically active, electrically conductive or magnetic properties are known.
Sophisticated security elements also include memory elements, such as chips or magnetic strips, on which a wide variety of data is stored digitally and can be detected and read out to prove authenticity.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein Sicherheitsmerkmal bereitzustellen, auf dem Daten analog gespeichert sind.The object of the invention is to provide a security feature, are stored on the data analog.

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist daher ein Sicherheitselement, aufweisend ein Trägersubstrat, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Sicherheitselement auf dem Trägersubstrat eine gedruckte Schicht in Form von Linien oder anderen Geometrien aufweist, wobei ein analoges Signal durch Seitenkantenmodulation in die Bedruckung eingebracht ist.The invention therefore relates to a security element, comprising a carrier substrate, characterized in that the security element on the carrier substrate has a printed layer in the form of lines or other geometries, wherein an analog signal is introduced by side edge modulation in the printing.

Üblicherweise werden analoge Signale bei der Schall- oder Videoaufzeichnung auf Magnettonträgern oder Schallplatten verwendet.
Die magnetische Aufzeichnung auf magnetische Träger wird abhängig vom Signal entweder amplituden- oder frequenzmoduliert. Bei der Aufzeichnung von Schall- oder Videoplatten z.B.: aus Vinyl werden vertikale und horizontale Modulationsarten verwendet.
Typically, analog signals are used in sound or video recording on magnetic media or records.
Magnetic recording on magnetic carriers is either amplitude or frequency modulated depending on the signal. When recording sound or video discs, for example: vinyl, vertical and horizontal modulation modes are used.

Das analoge Signal wird erfindungsgemäß in einer Seitenkantenmodulation in der X-Achse codiert.
Dabei wird analog der Technologie zur Herstellung von Schallplatten durch Seitenkantenveränderungen der Basis das analoge Signal erzeugt, das dann in ein Tonsignal umgewandelt werden soll.
The analog signal is coded according to the invention in a side edge modulation in the X-axis.
In this case analogous to the technology for the production of records by side edge changes of the base, the analog signal is generated, which is then to be converted into a sound signal.

Für die drucktechnische Aufarbeitung wird dabei das analoge Datensignal über einen A/D-Wandler in ein digitales Signal umgesetzt.
Dieses digitale Signal wird mit Hilfe eines Audiosignal-Visualisierer als Grafik ausgegeben.
For the technical printing processing, the analog data signal is converted via an A / D converter into a digital signal.
This digital signal is output as a graphic using an audio signal visualizer.

Die drucktechnische Umsetzung erfolgt in einem geeigneten Grafikprogramm, das für das entsprechende Druckverfahren in die Grafik einrechnet und dann durch geeignete Verfahren auf das jeweilige Druckwerkzeug übertragen.The printing technology implementation takes place in a suitable graphics program, which counts for the corresponding printing process in the graph and then transferred by suitable methods to the respective printing tool.

Diese seitenkantenmodulierte Bedruckung kann in Form von Linien oder anderen Geometrien mittels herkömmlicher Druckverfahren, beispielsweise im Tief-, Flexo-, Sieb-, Offset-, Buch-, Intaglio- oder Digitaldruck und dergleichen auf das Trägersubstrat aufgebracht werden.
Für den Tiefdruck kann dabei beispielsweise zur Herstellung eines Tiefdruckzylinders oder einer Tiefdruckplatte mit Hilfe eines Laserbelichtungsverfahrens und Ätzung oder mittels eines Gravurverfahrens mit einem Diamantstichel oder mit Hilfe direkter Laserablation (z.B.: Dätwyler Laserstar oder Hell Direktkupferlaser) erfolgen.
This side edge modulated printing can be applied to the carrier substrate in the form of lines or other geometries by means of conventional printing methods, for example in gravure, flexo, screen, offset, book, intaglio or digital printing and the like.
For gravure printing, for example, for the production of a gravure cylinder or a gravure printing plate by means of a laser exposure method and etching or by means of a gravure process with a diamond stylus or by means of direct laser ablation (eg: Daetwyler Laserstar or Hell direct copper laser).

Für das Flexodruckverfahren können beispielsweise die Sleeves mit Elastomeren direkt mittels eines Lasers graviert werden.For the flexographic printing process, for example, the sleeves can be engraved with elastomers directly by means of a laser.

Üblicherweise werden die analogen Datensignale im Volltonmodus ausgeprägt. Daher ist keine Rasterung der Druckoberfläche notwendig. Die zu druckenden Flächen werden als volldruckende Fläche rasterlos ausgeführt.
Dabei kann eine konventionelle Druckfarbe verwendet werden. Die Druckfarbe kann aber auch weitere Eigenschaften, beispielsweise optische Eigenschaften, oder UV- oder IR- detektierbare Eigenschaften aufweisen.
Usually, the analog data signals are pronounced in full tone mode. Therefore, no screening of the printing surface is necessary. The surfaces to be printed are executed as full printing surface without grid.
In this case, a conventional printing ink can be used. However, the printing ink can also have further properties, for example optical properties, or UV- or IR-detectable properties.

Somit kann das Signal in unterschiedlichen Farben und Formen aufgebracht werden. Dadurch kann das Signal beispielsweise in einem Motiv versteckt oder integriert werden.Thus, the signal can be applied in different colors and shapes. As a result, the signal can be hidden or integrated in a motif, for example.

Ferner ist es möglich das Signal nicht fortlaufend in das Motiv einzubringen, sondern in verschiedenen Motivteilen zu situieren.Furthermore, it is possible not to continuously introduce the signal into the subject, but to situate it in different parts of the subject.

Das Signal kann mittels eines bekannten optischen Detektors, beispielsweise eines handelsüblichen Flachbettscanners erfasst und mittels einer geeigneten Software ausgelesen werden.The signal can be detected by means of a known optical detector, for example a commercially available flatbed scanner, and read out by means of suitable software.

Für die Auswertung des gedruckten analogen Datensignals und gegebenenfalls zur Umsetzung in den human hörbaren Frequenzbereich kann beispielsweise das in US 2005/0002319 A1 beschriebene Verfahren verwendet werden.
Dabei wird zur Abtastung ein Lichtsensor benutzt, die Oberflächenstruktur daher berührungslos erfasst und die Daten anschließend in Musik, Töne oder Sprache umgewandelt und ausgegeben.
For the evaluation of the printed analog data signal and optionally for conversion into the human audible frequency range, for example, the in US 2005/0002319 A1 described method can be used.
In this case, a light sensor is used for scanning, the surface structure therefore detected contactless and then converted the data in music, sounds or speech and output.

Auf diese Weise können beispielsweise Texte, Tonfolgen, Musik, Geräusche Töne, Worte analog modulierte digitale Datenfolgen (entsprechend der Modemtechnologie) und dergleichen als versteckte Sicherheitsmerkmale aufgebracht werden.In this way, for example, texts, sound sequences, music, sounds sounds, words analog modulated digital data sequences (according to the modem technology) and the like can be applied as hidden security features.

In einer weiteren Ausführungsform kann das erfindungsgemäße Sicherheitsmerkmal mit weiteren Sicherheitsmerkmalen, die beispielsweise optische, elektrisch leitfähige oder magnetische Eigenschaften aufweisen, kombiniert werden.In a further embodiment, the security feature according to the invention can be combined with further security features which have, for example, optical, electrically conductive or magnetic properties.
