Abstract: To transfer a coating in image form from a transfer foil to a print sheet, adhesive is applied in the form of the image to said sheet. In a foil transfer module (2), the carrier foil with the coating in image form is then brought into contact with the print sheet using contact pressure, so that the coating adheres to the adhesive pints and an image is produced. To improve the function, simplify the device and increase the flexibility of the method, a transfer cylinder (3) is provided with a covering that has a variable cover thickness (25), in order to adapt the surface speed of the transfer cylinder (3).

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the virtual production of an image, with a housing, an image projection device, which produces an image to be displayed. The housing has an observation opening in a wall of the housing with a fresnel lens arranged therein. Imaging optics arranged in the housing for depicting the object onto the fresnel lens. In order to ensure a large range of applications for this device, provision is made that the imaging optics have a concave mirror arranged in the path of light rays between the image projection device and the fresnel lens. The concave mirror lies opposite the fresnel lens and a ray divider is provided therebetween. To increase the illusion effect, a partially translucent mirror (spy mirror) is additionally arranged on the observation side of the fresnel lens.
