  • the present invention is directed to a computer program product having control instructions that perform the method when executed on a computer or operating the proposed device.
  • WO 2013/086167 A1 shows a method for providing a relief microstructure with an optically variable image.
  • DE 10 2015 006 854 A1 shows a device for applying security elements on a value document substrate.
  • the security element comprises a film element, which leads to self-supporting properties of the security element. This is commonly referred to as L-lead. If a security element has no film element which leads to self-supporting properties of the security element, this is generally also referred to as a T-lead.
  • a layer arrangement for producing a security feature for use in value documents comprising an information layer for personalization of the layer arrangement, a micro-optic layer comprising micro-optical elements which realize a color change depending on the viewing angle, a reflector layer which, in cooperation with at least the micro-optic layer, triggers a light reflection, wherein a laminatable cover layer is provided and the micro-optic layer is laminated within the layer arrangement.
  • the proposed layer arrangement is used, for example, in the production of a value document, in which case individual layers are provided and laminated together in further method steps.
  • the proposed value document or the proposed layer arrangement is a lamination composite having individual layers which are connected by means of hot lamination.
  • the proposed value document is a chip card or an identity document.
  • the present invention can particularly preferably also be used for pass pages, labels and labels.
  • a laminated layer arrangement or a laminated value document is proposed.
  • the present invention is not limited to a security feature, but rather, those skilled in the art will recognize that such an advantageous arrangement also provides an aesthetic effect, but is not a preferred embodiment. Rather, the following is based on the technical effect of the security feature, since the layer arrangement according to the invention is a unique selling point, which can be recognized by the unaided eye, ie without technical devices, and is therefore particularly advantageous because corresponding layers, in particular the reflector layer and the micro-optic layer, are protected against abrasion, and further according to the invention it is possible to bring about a color-true color change by means of a laminated cover layer, in contrast to a lacquer layer. Thus, it is thus avoided according to the invention that an unsuitable lacquer layer is used, but rather a laminatable cover layer is used as the protective layer.
  • the information layer for personalization of the layer arrangement may be a printed layer which is arranged, for example, on the cover layer. In this case, it is possible to arrange the information layer on the upper or the lower side of the cover layer. As a result, the layer arrangement can be personalized in such a way that the information layer is applied in accordance with a specific print pattern, or else that the information layer is applied flat and is then at least partially removed. Such removal may u. a. done by means of a laser.
  • the micro-optic layer has micro-optical elements which cause a color change depending on the viewing angle.
  • the micro-optic layer is arranged within the layer arrangement in such a way that, from the viewpoint of a viewer, only transparent layers are located between the viewer and the micro-optic layer, since otherwise the micro-optic layer would be covered. In this case, it is possible to partially obscure the micro-optic layer, whereby a suitable surface always remains uncovered, in such a way that the observer can recognize a color change.
  • the micro-optic layer is designed such that it has a certain color at a light incidence, and, if the viewer changes its position with respect to the layer arrangement, another color is formed optically.
  • microlenses may be used as micro-optical elements or micromirror arrays or the like. Also, different micro-optical elements can be combined.
  • a reflector layer is a layer which triggers a light reflection when light is incident.
  • the reflector layer it is possible for the reflector layer to interact with the microoptical layer in such a way that a specific optical effect occurs, such that, for example, a hologram with a color change is recognizable. Again, it is possible to partially remove the reflector layer, so that in turn adjusts another security feature or a personalization feature.
  • a laminable cover layer which is preferably transparent or at least semi-transparent.
  • This cover layer acts as a protective layer and protects, for example, the micro-optic layer from abrasions.
  • the cover layer can be configured in such a way that a color-true security feature, for example the microoptical elements, remains visible.
  • a lacquer layer has been conventionally used, which provides only a low protection against abrasion and is also clouded. It has thus been recognized according to the invention that a corresponding arrangement can also be provided by means of lamination, and that the cover layer, as a laminable covering layer, provides a beneficial technical effect which constitutes a contribution to the lacquer layer.
  • the micro-optic layer is laminated within the layer arrangement, which is why it is particularly protected against abrasion.
  • the present invention is not limited to abrasion, but rather is realized according to the invention that the micro-optic layer and possibly other layers, such as the reflector layer, are protected from physical force.
  • a viewing angle can not be varied merely by the observer changing his point of view with respect to the layer arrangement, but rather such a viewing angle change is also possible by moving the map or the layer arrangement per se relative to the viewer.
  • the information layer is present as a coating of the cover layer.
  • This has the advantage that the information layer can be applied to at least one side of the cover layer, wherein the cover layer is preferably transparent.
  • the cover layer is preferably transparent.
  • it is possible to provide a further personalization feature which cooperates particularly advantageously with the cover layer. If, for example, the information layer is arranged over the cover layer, then this can be partially removed, for example, and personalization can be created in this case. If the information layer is below the cover layer, the information layer is protected by the cover layer. In particular, it is possible in this case to combine the information layer with further features which allow personalization.
  • the information layer is present as a print layer.
  • This has the advantage that any logo can be attached to the layer arrangement or in the layer arrangement.
  • the information layer can be provided by means of simple technical means.
  • the micro-optic layer is present as an embossing lacquer layer.
  • the micro-optic layer can be produced by means of known methods, which are used particularly advantageously in the context of the present invention.

  • the micro-optic layer has at least one micromirror array, a Fresnel lens and / or a microfresnel lens.
  • the micro-optic layer can be configured particularly advantageously, since a multiplicity of optical effects is possible by means of the proposed micro-optical elements.
  • these proposed micro-optical elements are suitable to provide a viewing angle-dependent color change, wherein the micro-optic layer and / or at least one further layer can be colored. This results in a particularly appealing visual effect, which can also be used as a security function.
  • the reflector layer is present as a screen printing and / or a mirror-gloss film.
  • This has the advantage that the reflector layer can be introduced into the layer arrangement with simple technical means and, for example, an underlying substrate which, for example, forms a card body, can be provided with the reflector layer in a simple manner.
  • special optical effects may result from the reflector layer at least partially through the micro-optic layer and the cover layer shining or incident light, which is passed through the cover layer, the information layer and the micro-optic layer on the reflector layer, is reflected and accordingly a light reflection or causes a light reflection.
  • the light is reflected back through the micro-optic layer, the information layer and the cover layer so that in this case an optical technical effect is created, which is supplemented by means of the viewing angle-dependent color change through the micro-optic layer.
  • a layer sequence provides that the micro-optic layer is arranged between the reflector layer and the cover layer.
  • This has the advantage that the micro-optic layer is protected in the interior of the layer arrangement and thus abrasion or mechanical action on the micro-optic layer is weakened or prevented.
  • the cover layer is made transparent such that incident light impinges on the microoptical layer and is reflected there in the form of a viewing angle-dependent color change. The reflection of the light can be accomplished by the micro-optic layer and / or the reflector layer.
  • the reflector layer and / or the micro-optic layer is partially removed.
  • a partial removal may, for example, be a laser or, in general, a demetallization.
  • the reflector layer and / or the micro-optic layer is laser engraved, e.g. in the form of a laser inscription or laser demetallization, on.
  • This has the advantage that parts of the individual layers can be removed in a particularly advantageous manner and thus an arbitrary pattern is established, which in turn occurs as a security feature or as a personalization feature.
  • the layer arrangement is present as a laminate composite.
  • This has the advantage that the layer arrangement is laminated and thus deliberately no banknotes Instead, a laminate composite is created which does not rely on a lacquer layer as required by the prior art for sealing. Rather, the individual layer arrangements are connected in such a way that they are laminated and thus form either the value document or else a sub-layer arrangement such that further layers can be laminated onto this part of the value document in later method steps.
  • At least one layer is made transparent.
  • the cover layer can be designed to be transparent and so a protective layer can be laminated, which is substantially true to color.
  • a lacquer can be used in the interior of the layer structure or the layer arrangement, but the layer structure or the layer arrangement as such is laminated together.
