One of the main disadvantages, however, is that the resulting images lack aesthetics and a matte appearance, which is directly caused by the orientation of the magnetic pigment flakes perpendicular to t

Embodiment Construction

[0057] in accordance with Figure 7 , Figure 8 and specifically refer to Figure 9 In the exemplary embodiment shown, the scaffold (1) cut out of a block of aluminum is made to accommodate the SrFe 12 o 19 Two permanent magnet bars (3a, 3b) made of ceramic with dimensions 10×10×30 mm. These permanent magnets are secured and held in place by a press mechanism and screws. The poles of the two permanent magnets are Figure 7 Arrange as shown, or follow the Figure 8 Arrange as shown. An embossed permanent magnet plate (2) made of "plastic magnetic ferrite" with a size of 40 x 30 x 3 mm is arranged and fixed in place on the upper part of the permanent magnet bar so that said embossment remains accessible (i.e. seen from above).

[0058] On plastic ferrite plates, either with a mechanical engraving tool, or preferably with an automatic CO 2 Laser engraving tool or YAG laser engraving tool to engrave the desired high-resolution pattern.

[0059] The frame (1) is shaped to...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for magnetically transferring indicia, such as a design or an image, to a wet coating layer applied on a substrate, such as a sheet or a web, wherein the said coating layer comprises at least one type of magnetic or magnetizable particles; said device comprising a) at least one magnetized permanent-magnetic plate (2) carrying relief, engravings or cut-outs, mounted such that its relief surface remains accessible, b) at least one additional magnet (3), disposed below said at least one permanent-magnetic plate, facing the surface of the magnetic plate which is opposite to the relief, engraving or cut-out, and c) a holder (1), which has the mechanical function to hold the pieces together in fixed positions. A method for producing the device, the use of the device, and magnetically induced designs obtained with the device, which are useful for protecting currency, value- and identity documents, are disclosed as well.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention belongs to the field of security document printing and relates to improvements in devices for transferring security patterns onto layers of magnetic ink, and in particular color-changing magnetic ink. Background technique [0002] Markings exhibiting viewing angle-dependent color effects ("optically variable images", OVDs) are used as effective copy protection on banknotes and security documents. In OVDs, optically variable inks ( EP227,423B1) has been in a position of prominence since it was first used on the reverse of currency in 1987. Optically variable inks are formulated based on optically variable pigments (OVP). A preferred optically variable pigment is listed in US patent applications US 4,705,300, US 4,705,356, US 4,721,217, US 4,779,898, US 4,930,866, US 5,084,351 and related publications Described thin-film optical interference powder flakes. Other useful types of optically variable pigments include the multicoated...
