  • Publication number: 20220324248
    Abstract: A see-through security element (2), a security document (1) and a method for producing a see-through security element (2). The see-through security element has a first element with one or more transparent first partial areas and at least one reflective second partial area. The see-through security element has a second element with one or more first partial areas, which in each case in transmission form a color filter matched to a respectively assigned color, and has at least one second partial area, which is formed colorless, in particular colorless transparent, or in transmission and/or reflection forms a color filter which is matched to a color which is not assigned to any of the one or more first partial area of the second element. The first partial areas of the first element and the first partial areas of the second element at least partially overlap.

  • Publication number: 20220055363
    Abstract: A The invention relates to a method for producing a film intermediate product (1), a film intermediate product (1), as well as a product produced hereby. The film intermediate product (1) is here formed by means of depositing one or more film elements (311 to 314), which is or are formed in each case of a cutout of one or more donor films (301 to 304).

  • Patent number: 10850552
    Abstract: A method for producing a security element formed as a lenticular flip, including a micro-optical layer, a carrier substrate and an image layer, wherein the image layer includes n images for n=1 to i which are visible from an n-th observation angle allocated to the n-th image, and wherein n is at least 1. The images are imaged on a photoresist with parallel light in contact print or by means of projection. After the photoresist is developed, an image layer which includes the i images is present.

  • Patent number: 10434813
    Abstract: A method for producing a security document, with a thermographic substrate wherein the thermographic substrate is caused to undergo a color change depending on temperature effect in at least one first region A film element is arranged in such a way that the film element is arranged between the at least one first region of the thermographic substrate and a thermal print head. At least one first item of information is introduced by means of the thermal print head by activation of the color change in the at least one first region of the thermographic substrate, wherein the thermal print head, during the introduction of the at least one first item of information is in contact with the film element in such a way that the temperature effect causing the activation of the color change is transferred from the thermal print head through the film element to the at least one first region of the thermographic substrate.
