Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a printed matter and a method for producing a printed matter. [Background technology]

[0002] 2. Description of the Related Art There are printed matters that are desired not to be counterfeited or tampered with, such as stickers attached to products to guarantee the authenticity of the products, gift certificates, lottery tickets, and the like. For example, Patent Document 1 describes a lottery ticket in which a lottery mark such as a picture or symbol is printed on a support, the lottery mark is covered with a protective layer that is a transparent hologram layer, and a peelable layer that covers the lottery mark is further formed on top of the protective layer.

[0003] When the peelable layer of the printed lottery ticket described in Patent Document 1 is rubbed with a fingernail or a coin to remove it, the lottery mark and the holographic information that was invisible before the peeling become visible. This makes counterfeiting and tampering extremely difficult, and it is said that fraudulent activity can be immediately detected by whether or not the holographic information is revealed after peeling. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 6-278397 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] In printed materials having a hologram layer, such as the lottery ticket described in Patent Document 1, there is a risk that the hologram layer will peel off or be destroyed along with the release layer, resulting in the loss of hologram information, when the release layer is rubbed off with a fingernail or a coin. Furthermore, because it is not clear that this lottery ticket has a hologram layer when the release layer is not peeled off, there are concerns that it is not very effective in deterring fraudulent acts such as counterfeiting and tampering.

[0010] The printed matter according to the embodiment of the present invention will be explained using printed matter 91 to printed matter 96 of the first to sixth embodiments, respectively.

[0011] (First embodiment: printed matter 91) The printed matter 91 will be described with reference to Figures 1A to 1D. For ease of explanation, the up and down directions are indicated by arrows in Figure 1A.

[0012] The printed matter 91 has a printed part PT1 formed by laminating a first adhesive layer 21, a first hologram foil layer 31, a UV ink layer 4, a second adhesive layer 22, and a second hologram foil layer 32 on a substrate 1 in this order.

[0013] The substrate 1 is paper, a resin film, or a resin sheet, and there is no limitation as to whether it is UV-transparent or not.

[0014] The first adhesive layer 21 is a layer formed on the base material 1, and is a layer formed by curing a first ultraviolet-curable adhesive (hereinafter referred to as the first adhesive).

[0015] The first hologram foil layer 31 is a layer of hologram foil laminated via the first adhesive layer 21. The hologram foil used for the first hologram foil layer 31 is a foil that uses a base material such as a resin film that is UV-transparent, one side of which is embossed to form a hologram surface 31p that visually exhibits a hologram effect. In the printed section PT1, the hologram surface 31p is the surface on the first adhesive layer 21 side, and when the first hologram foil layer 31 is the surface layer, the hologram effect can be seen by viewing from the opposite side to the first adhesive layer 21 (the upper side in FIG. 1A ).

[0016] Here, the hologram effect refers to a visual effect in which the presence or absence of metallic luster, the degree of metallic luster, color, and accompanying patterns change depending on the viewing angle. The visual appearance obtained when the first hologram foil layer 31 is viewed from above is referred to as the first hologram effect.

[0017] The UV ink layer 4 is a layer formed on the first hologram foil layer 31, and is a layer formed by curing a UV-curable coating agent such as UV-curable ink or varnish. The UV ink layer 4 is a layer that is transparent to light that at least contains ultraviolet light. When the UV ink layer 4 is a surface layer, it is formed to impart color, gloss, or matte finish when viewed from above, or to protect the first hologram foil layer 31.

[0018] The second adhesive layer 22 is a layer formed on the UV ink layer 4, and is a layer formed by curing a second ultraviolet curing adhesive (hereinafter referred to as the second adhesive).

[0019] The second hologram foil layer 32 is a layer of hologram foil laminated via the second adhesive layer 22. Like the first hologram foil layer 31, the second hologram foil layer 32 is a foil that uses a base material such as a resin film that is UV-transparent, and one side of the base is embossed to form a hologram surface 32p that provides a visual hologram effect. In the printed section PT1, the hologram surface 32p is the surface on the second adhesive layer 22 side, and when the second hologram foil layer 32 is the surface layer, the hologram effect can be seen by viewing from the opposite side to the second adhesive layer 22 (the upper side in FIG. 1A ).

[0020] If the hologram effect obtained by the second hologram foil layer 32 is referred to as a second hologram effect, the second hologram effect should be recognized as a different aspect from the first hologram effect.

[0021] 1B is a diagram showing a visual appearance of a printed matter 91 having a printed part PT1 with the above-described configuration, as viewed from above. The printed matter 91 has a printed part PT1 in which a first adhesive layer 21 to a second hologram foil layer 32 are formed in a predetermined area (e.g., a rectangular area) on the substrate 1.

[0022] In the printed portion PT1 of the printed matter 91, a second hologram aspect M32 (hereinafter referred to as the second hologram aspect M32) due to the second hologram effect of the second hologram foil layer 32 is visible. In Fig. 1B, the second hologram aspect M32 is shown as hatching slanting upward to the right.

[0023] Here, the second holographic feature M32 is a pattern, gloss, color, etc. that can be visually recognized. Similar to a normal hologram effect, the second holographic feature M32 changes the pattern, the presence or absence of gloss, the degree of gloss, or the color depending on the viewing angle. The printed portion PT1 is not limited to being formed on a part of the substrate 1 in the printed matter 91 as shown in FIG. 1B, but may be formed on the entire surface of the substrate 1.

[0024] When viewed from the outside, the printed portion PT1 in the printed matter 91 only recognizes the second hologram aspect M32 of the second hologram foil layer 32, and although the viewer can tell from the second hologram aspect M32 that the printed matter 91 is a hologram sheet, they cannot tell that the first hologram foil layer 31 exists inside.

[0025] If the printed matter 91 is, for example, a seal that guarantees the authenticity of a product, the authenticity can be confirmed by sticking adhesive tape to the surface of the printed part PT1 and peeling it off. This will be described with reference to Figures 1C and 1D.

[0026] Adhesive tape 81, such as cellophane tape, is firmly attached to the second hologram foil layer 32, which is the surface layer of the printed portion PT1 in the printed matter 91, and then peeled off in one go at an angle of, for example, 45°. This process is hereinafter referred to as the peeling process. As a result, as shown in FIG. 1C , the printed portion PT1 peels off at a specific boundary E among the multiple laminated layers, separating into the layer remaining on the substrate 1 and the layer on the adhesive tape 81 side. Specifically, peeling occurs at the boundary E between the UV ink layer 4 and the second adhesive layer 22, and the second hologram foil layer 32 and the second adhesive layer 22 are shear-fractured and separated at the edge of the adhesive tape 81.

[0027] The adhesive strength between the first adhesive layer 21 and the second adhesive layer 22 and their respective adjacent layers is adjusted to allow peeling at a specific boundary E. The details of this adjustment will be described in detail after the explanation of each embodiment.

[0028] The second hologram foil layer 32 is easily torn by shear because it is a foil. That is, the second hologram foil layer 32 is torn by shear at the edge of the two-dimensional adhesion area AR1 of the adhesive tape 81, and separated into a remaining portion 32a remaining on the substrate 1 side and a separated portion 32b on the adhesive tape 81 side.

[0029] Furthermore, the second adhesive layer 22 adheres to the embossed hologram surface 32p of the second hologram foil layer 32, resulting in a large contact area and relatively high adhesive strength, whereas the second adhesive layer 22 adheres to the smooth surface of the UV ink layer 4, resulting in lower adhesive strength than the hologram surface 32p side. Therefore, peeling the adhesive tape 81 causes interfacial peeling at the boundary E with the UV ink layer 4, resulting in separation into a remaining portion 22a that remains on the substrate 1, and a separated portion 22b on the adhesive tape 81 side.

[0030] As shown in FIG. 1D, by peeling off the adhesive tape 81, the UV ink layer 4 of the printed section PT1 is exposed in the attachment area AR1 where the adhesive tape 81 is attached. The partially peeled printed section PT1 is referred to as the peeled printed section PT1A. When viewed from above, the peeled printed section PT1A shows a second hologram pattern M32 due to the second hologram foil layer 32 in the unpeeled portion, and a first hologram pattern M31 (hereinafter referred to as the first hologram pattern M31), which is the hologram pattern of the first hologram foil layer 31, in the peeled attachment area AR1. In FIG. 1D, the first hologram pattern M31 is indicated by hatching slanting downward to the right.

[0031] In this way, the two hologram patterns, the first hologram pattern M31 and the second hologram pattern M32, of the printed matter 91 become visible simultaneously during the peeling process using the adhesive tape 81. Therefore, if the printed matter 91 is an authenticity guarantee seal, it can be easily and simply determined whether it is an authentic seal or a counterfeit seal based on whether only the adhesive area AR1 peels off during the peeling process, or whether the first hologram pattern M31 appears in the peeled area even if it is peeled off.

[0032] Furthermore, in the normal state of the printed matter 91 before peeling, the second holographic pattern M32 of the second holographic foil layer 32 is visible. Therefore, even if an attempt is made to counterfeit the printed matter 91, it is clear that advanced holographic counterfeiting technology would be required, and a high level of deterrence against counterfeiting and tampering can be achieved.

[0033] In the printed matter 91, the adhesive strength between the second adhesive (22) and the UV-curable coating agent (4) is adjusted so that interfacial peeling occurs at the boundary E between the second adhesive layer 22 and the UV ink layer 4 during the peeling process using the adhesive tape 81 after curing. However, cohesive peeling may occur in the UV ink layer 4. If cohesive peeling occurs in the UV ink layer 4, the top surface of the first hologram foil layer 31 will have a mixture of areas where a portion of the UV ink layer 4 remains and areas where it has peeled and been exposed. However, because the UV ink layer 4 is optically transparent, the visibility of the first hologram foil layer 31 is not significantly affected, and the visual difference between the first hologram pattern M31 and the second hologram pattern M32 is clearly visible. The method for adjusting the adhesive strength between the second adhesive layer 22 and the UV ink layer 4 is not limited. It can be adjusted by the composition of each agent before curing or the adhesive area between the two layers.

[0034] (Second embodiment: printed matter 92) The printed matter 92 of the second embodiment has a printed portion PT2 on a substrate 1. As shown in Fig. 2A, the printed portion PT2 differs from the printed portion PT1 of the first embodiment in that the printed portion PT2 has character information of letters or symbols printed with UV ink as a UV ink layer 5 on the first hologram foil layer 31, but is otherwise the same. The UV ink layer 4 is formed so as to cover the first hologram foil layer 31 and the UV ink layer 5.

[0035] The peeling manner of the printed portion PT2 using the adhesive tape 81 is basically the same as that of the printed portion PT1. Specifically, in the normal state without peeling, as shown in FIG. 2B, the second hologram pattern M32 of the second hologram foil layer 32 is visible and indistinguishable from the printed portion PT1. In contrast, as shown in FIG. 2C, a peeling process using the adhesive tape 81 results in a peel-off printed portion PT2A. In the peel-off printed portion PT2A, the UV ink layer 4 is exposed in the adhesion region AR1, similar to the peel-off printed portion PT1A. If character information in the UV ink layer 5 is included in the adhesion region AR1, the character information in the UV ink layer 5 is also visible through the UV ink layer 4. In the example shown in FIG. 2D, the character information in the UV ink layer 5 is a string of alphabets A to D, and this string is visually recognized as being present on top of the first hologram pattern M31 as the character information pattern M5.

[0036] The second type of printed matter 92 can be simultaneously obtained in two hologram forms, similar to printed matter 91, by peeling off the adhesive tape 81. For example, if printed matter 92 is a seal that guarantees authenticity, its authenticity can be easily confirmed by peeling off the adhesive tape 81.

[0037] Specifically, in addition to the first holo pattern M31, which is different from the second holo pattern M32 in the other areas, the character information pattern M5 is visible in the adhesive region AR1 after the peeling process. Therefore, whether the seal is genuine or counterfeit can be easily determined not only based on whether only the adhesive region AR1 is peeled off during the peeling process or whether the first holo pattern M31 appears in the peeled portion even if the seal is peeled off, but also based on whether the character information pattern M5 is visible superimposed on the first holo pattern M31 that has appeared, and the accuracy of the content of the character information when it is visible.

[0038] In the printed matter 92, the second hologram pattern M32 formed by the second hologram foil layer 32 is visible in its normal state before peeling treatment. Therefore, if an attempt is made to forge the printed matter 92, it is clear that advanced counterfeiting technology would be required, providing a deterrent effect against counterfeiting. Furthermore, in its normal state, it is impossible to determine the first hologram pattern M31 formed by the first hologram foil layer 31 and the text information formed by the UV ink layer 5. Furthermore, because it is unclear whether there is a hologram pattern or text information hidden other than the second hologram pattern M32, and the content of that text information if it is present, this provides a more advanced deterrent effect against counterfeiting and tampering, and also makes it easier and more reliable to identify counterfeiting or tampering.

[0039] (Third embodiment: printed matter 93) The printed matter 93 of the third embodiment has a printed portion PT3 on the substrate 1. As shown in Fig. 3A, the printed portion PT3 has a first adhesive layer 21 on the substrate 1, with a first A adhesive layer 211 formed in a first region and a first B adhesive layer 212 in a second region different from the first region. A first A hologram foil layer 311 is adhered and formed on the first A adhesive layer 211, and a first B hologram foil layer 312 is adhered and formed on the first B adhesive layer 212. A UV ink layer 51 is formed as character information on the first A hologram foil layer 311, and a UV ink layer 52 is formed as character information on the first B hologram foil layer 312.

[0040] Thus, the printed section PT3 differs from the printed section PT2 in that it has a plurality of hologram foil layers formed by dividing the areas as the first hologram foil layer 31. More specifically, it differs in that it has a 1A hologram foil layer 311 and a 1B hologram foil layer 312, and that the 1A hologram foil layer 311 and the 1B hologram foil layer 312 formed by dividing the areas have UV ink layers 51 and 52, respectively; otherwise, they are the same. Another feature of the printed section PT3 of the printed matter 93 is that, in the normal state before peeling treatment, only the second hologram pattern M32 of the second hologram foil layer 32 is visible, and therefore, although complex hologram foil layers are formed inside and multiple character information is contained therein, it is indistinguishable from the printed sections PT1 and PT2 in the normal state.

[0041] The peeling process for the printed part PT3 using the adhesive tape 81 is basically the same as that for the printed part PT2. Hereinafter, as shown in Fig. 3B, a case will be described in which the peeling process using the adhesive tape 81 is performed and the boundary between the 1A hologram foil layer 311 and the 1B hologram foil layer 312 is included in the adhesion area AR1.

[0042] In this case, a peel-off printed section PT3A is obtained by the peel-off process. In the peel-off printed section PT3A, the UV ink layer 4 is exposed in the adhesive area AR1, similar to the peel-off printed sections PT1A and PT2A. In the peel-off printed section PT3A, the exposed adhesive area AR1 includes the formation area of ​​the 1A hologram foil layer 311 and the formation area of ​​the 1B hologram foil layer 312. Therefore, in the adhesive area AR1, the 1A hologram aspect M311 (hereinafter referred to as the 1A hologram aspect M311) formed by the 1A hologram foil layer 311 and the 1B hologram aspect M312 (hereinafter referred to as the 1B hologram aspect M312) formed by the 1B hologram foil layer 312 are visible across the boundary E3. In other words, if the 1A holo pattern M311 and the 1B holo pattern M312 are assumed to exhibit different holo patterns, two types of holo patterns will be visible simultaneously in the adhesive area AR1, and three types of holo patterns will be visible simultaneously in the peel-off printed section PT3A.

[0043] In the printing section PT3, a UV ink layer 51 and a UV ink layer 52 are formed on the firstA hologram foil layer 311 and the firstB hologram foil layer 312, respectively. As a result, as shown in Fig. 3C, the character information aspect M51 of the UV ink layer 51 is superimposed on the firstA hologram aspect M311 in the attachment area AR1 after the peeling process, and the character information aspect M52 of the UV ink layer 52 is superimposed on the firstB hologram aspect M312, which can be visually recognized. In Fig. 3C, the character information aspect M51 is, for example, a string of alphabets, and the character information aspect M52 is, for example, a string of numbers.

[0044] In this way, in the printed portion PT3, in the adhesive region AR1 after the peeling process, not only are multiple types of firstA holo patterns M311 and firstB holo patterns M312 that differ from the second holo pattern M32 in other regions apparent, but also the text information patterns M51 and M52 corresponding to each holo pattern are visible. Therefore, the printed matter 93 can be simply and easily determined to be an authentic seal or a counterfeit seal based on whether only the adhesive region AR1 peels off during the peeling process, and whether, even if peeled, the first holo pattern M31 appears in the peeled portion. In addition to this, whether the seal is authentic or a counterfeit seal can also be simply and easily determined based on whether the first holo pattern M31 that appears during the peeling process becomes multiple types of firstA holo patterns M311 and firstB holo patterns M312. Furthermore, whether the seal is genuine or counterfeit can be easily and simply determined by whether the character information aspect M51 and the character information aspect M52 are visible when superimposed on the 1A holo aspect M311 and the 1B holo aspect M312, respectively, and also by whether the content of the character information is correct when visible.

[0045] In the normal state of the printed matter 93, before peeling treatment, the second hologram pattern M32 of the second hologram foil layer 32 is visible. Therefore, if an attempt were made to forge the printed matter 93, it would be clear that advanced counterfeiting techniques would be required, providing a deterrent effect against counterfeiting. Furthermore, in the normal state, it is impossible to grasp the multiple types of 1A hologram pattern M311 and 1B hologram pattern M312 in the first hologram foil layer 31 and the character information in the UV ink layer 5 corresponding to each of the 1A hologram pattern M311 and 1B hologram pattern M312. Furthermore, because the multiple types of hologram pattern concealed other than the second hologram pattern M32 and the presence and content of character information are unknown, a more advanced deterrent effect against counterfeiting and tampering is provided, and counterfeiting and tampering can be identified more easily and reliably.

[0046] (Fourth aspect: printed matter 94) As shown in FIG. 4A, the printed matter 94 of the fourth embodiment has a printed portion PT4 on a substrate 1. The printed portion PT4 is identical to the printed portion PT1 of the printed matter 91 of the first embodiment except that the second hologram foil layer 32 is replaced with a metal foil layer 6 made of a metal foil with a metallic luster similar to silver. The metal foil layer 6 is formed by vapor-depositing aluminum onto a resin film such as PET (polyethylene terephthalate), and its thinness allows it to transmit ultraviolet light to a certain extent. In the normal state without peeling treatment, the entire printed portion PT4 appears as a glossy portion M4 with a silvery luster, as shown in FIG. 4B. In FIG. 4B, the glossy portion M4 is shown in white.

[0047] The printing part PT4 is similar to the printing part PT1 in that the adhesive tape 81 is peeled off. Peeling occurs at the boundary E between the second adhesive layer 22 and the UV ink layer 4, and the first holographic pattern M31 is visible in the adhesion area AR1 of the adhesive tape 81. The visible pattern of the printed section PT4 after the peeling process is obtained by replacing the second holographic pattern M32 in FIG. 1D with the glossy pattern M4.

[0048] In the normal state of the printed matter 94, before peeling, the glossy aspect M4 due to the metal foil layer 6 is visible, and after peeling using the adhesive tape 81, the first holographic aspect M31 and the glossy aspect M4 are simultaneously visible. Therefore, it is possible to simply and easily determine whether the seal is genuine or a counterfeit seal based on whether only the adhesive area AR1 peels off during peeling, or whether the first holographic aspect M31 appears in the peeled area even if peeled. This shows that even if an attempt is made to counterfeit, advanced hologram counterfeiting technology is required, providing a highly effective deterrent against counterfeiting and tampering.

[0049] (Fifth embodiment: printed matter 95) As shown in Figure 5A, the printed matter 95 of the fifth embodiment differs from the printed part PT1 of the first embodiment in that the printed part PT5 formed on the substrate 1 has character information of letters or symbols printed in UV ink on the second hologram foil layer 32, which is the topmost part, as a UV ink layer 7, but is otherwise the same.

[0050] 5B, printed matter 95 has text information aspect M7 formed on second holographic aspect M32 before being peeled off, and can display information about printed matter 95. The effect obtained by peeling treatment using adhesive tape 81 is the same as that of printed matter 91.

[0051] (6th aspect: printed matter 96) As shown in Fig. 6A, a printed matter 96 of the sixth embodiment has a printed portion PT6 on a substrate 1. The printed portion PT6 differs from the printed portion PT5 in that a protective layer 8 is formed to cover the second hologram foil layer 32 and the UV ink layer 7. The protective layer 8 is a resin film that protects the second hologram foil layer 32 and the UV ink layer 7, has an adhesive layer not shown in Fig. 6A, and is laminated and formed by adhesion to the second hologram foil layer 32 and the UV ink layer 7. The resin film is, for example, a PP (polypropylene) film.

[0052] When a peeling process is performed on the printed portion PT6 of the printed matter 96 using adhesive tape 81, the resin film of the protective layer 8 is not easily broken by shear, so as shown in Figure 6B, not only the adhesion area AR1 of the adhesive tape 81 but the entire area where the protective layer 8 is formed peels off and separates from the boundary E.

[0053] In the printed matter 96, in its normal state before the peeling process using the adhesive tape 81, the second hologram feature M32 is visible. When the peeling process is performed, the second hologram foil layer 32 is peeled off and separated together with the adhesive tape 81, thereby making the first hologram feature M31 visible. Therefore, it is possible to simply and easily determine whether the seal is genuine or a counterfeit seal based on whether the new first hologram feature M31 appears during the peeling process. Furthermore, in the printed matter 91, in its normal state before the peeling process, the second hologram feature M32 due to the second hologram foil layer 32 is visible. Therefore, even if an attempt is made to counterfeit the printed matter 91, it is clear that advanced hologram counterfeiting technology would be required, providing a highly effective deterrent against counterfeiting and tampering.

[0054] In the peeling process for the printed materials 91 to 96 of the first to sixth embodiments described above, the adhesive strength between each of the second adhesive layer 22 and the first adhesive layer 21 and the adjacent layer is adjusted to achieve interfacial peeling or cohesive peeling at the UV ink layer 4 at a specific boundary E. This adhesive strength corresponds to the peel strength in the direction perpendicular to the adhesive surface. The adhesive strengths are defined as follows: The adhesive strength between the second adhesive layer 22 and its adjacent underlying UV ink layer is defined as a first adhesive strength St1; the adhesive strength between the second adhesive layer 22 and its adjacent upper second hologram foil layer 32 or metal foil layer 6 is defined as a second adhesive strength St2; the adhesive strength between the first adhesive layer 21 and its adjacent upper first hologram foil layer 31 is defined as a third adhesive strength St3; and the adhesive strength between the first adhesive layer 21 and the substrate 1 corresponding to the adjacent lower layer is defined as a fourth adhesive strength St4.

[0055] In this case, the strength relationship is adjusted and set as a manufacturing specification such that the first adhesive strength St1 is smaller than any of the second adhesive strength St2, the third adhesive strength St3, and the fourth adhesive strength St4. Whether or not the printed matters 91-96 have this strength relationship in the printed portions PT1-PT6 can be determined by whether or not peeling occurs between the second adhesive layer 22 and the first hologram foil layer 31 when a peeling process is performed using the adhesive tape 81. The items to be adjusted to achieve the above-described strength relationship include the following: the composition of the first adhesive that becomes the first adhesive layer 21 and the second adhesive that becomes the second adhesive layer 22, the contact area between the first adhesive layer 21 and the second adhesive layer 22 and the adjacent layers, the intensity and irradiation time of the UV light irradiated onto the layer to be cured during UV curing, etc. These items may be selectively adjusted to achieve the above-described strength relationship. In particular, if light-transmitting layers are laminated on the layer to be cured, the intensity, etc. of the UV light that passes through those layers and reaches the layer to be cured may be adjusted. Furthermore, the intensity or irradiation time of UV light irradiated on the first adhesive and the second adhesive may be adjusted so that the remaining rate of uncured portions in the second adhesive layer 22 is greater than the remaining rate of uncured portions in the first adhesive layer 21, and the adhesive strength of the second adhesive layer 22 is smaller than the adhesive strength of the first adhesive layer 21. The remaining rate of uncured portions can be determined, for example, from the degree of curing based on a spectrum measured by a Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer.

[0056] By setting the above-described strength relationship, the printed matters 91 to 96 undergo interfacial peeling at a specific boundary E or cohesive peeling in the UV ink layer 4 when peeled off with the adhesive tape 81. In other words, the printed matters 91 to 96 undergo peeling between the second adhesive layer 22 and the first hologram foil layer 31 when peeled off.

[0057] The method for producing the printed objects 91-96 described above in detail will be described with reference to FIG. 7 and FIGS. 8A-8F. FIG. 7 is a side view showing the configuration of a printing apparatus PD that prints the printed objects 91-96. FIG. 8A is a flow diagram showing the procedure for producing the printed object 91 by wet printing.

FIG. 8E is a flow diagram for explaining the printing procedure for producing the printed object 95. FIG. 8F is a flow diagram for explaining the printing procedure for producing the printed object 96.

[0058] (Printing device PD) The printing device PD shown in Figure 7 is an inline offset printing device capable of so-called cold foil processing. Specifically, it can print UV adhesive on a film substrate or a sheet of paper, and then adhere foil onto it to produce a printed product with foil. The printing device PD is configured so that multiple units are arranged in parallel to produce printed materials on a line through continuous processing, and for example, the "ROLAND 700 HiPrint" manufactured by Manroland can be used.

[0059] As shown in FIG. 7, the printing apparatus PD includes a substrate delivery unit P1, an adhesive application unit P2, a foil supply unit P3, a printing unit P4, a coating unit P5, a UV curing unit P6, a discharge unit P7, and a control unit CT. In the printing device PD, the substrate 1 is loaded as a roll or a stack of sheets into a substrate delivery unit P1, which unwinds the substrate 1 from the roll or delivers the sheets one by one to the adhesive application unit P2.

[0060] The adhesive application unit P2 applies UV adhesive to a predetermined area of ​​the substrate 1 and delivers it as an intermediate product. The foil supply unit P3 has a foil delivery unit P31 and a foil rewinding unit P32 and supplies foil to the substrate 1. In the foil supply unit P3, the foil is placed on the intermediate body from the adhesive application unit P2 so that it overlaps the first adhesive, and is then delivered as a second intermediate body. The supplied foil is, for example, a metal foil, a hologram foil, etc.

[0061] The printing unit P4 prints with UV ink as needed on the foil of the second intermediate delivered from the foil supply unit P3, i.e., the intermediate having adhesive and foil placed on the base material 1, and delivers it as a third intermediate. For example, the four-color printing shown in Figure 7 has a black printing unit P41, a cyan printing unit P42, a magenta printing unit P43, and a yellow printing unit P44.

[0062] The coating unit P5 coats the third intermediate product sent out from the printing unit P4 with UVOP varnish or the like as needed, and sends it out as a fourth intermediate product. The UV curing unit P6 irradiates the fourth intermediate delivered from the coating unit P5 with ultraviolet light to cure the adhesive, UV ink, and UVOP varnish, thereby forming a printed matter (for example, printed matter 92). The discharge unit P7 holds the printed material so that it can be moved and discharged.

[0063] The control unit CT controls the overall operation of the printing device PD based on a preset program, for example, by controlling the UV ink application pattern and adhesive application area to be applied in a preset pattern and area, respectively.

[0064] (Printing process) Next, a process for producing a printed matter 91 or the like using the printing apparatus PD will be described.

[0065] (Printed material 91) The procedure for producing the printed matter 91 will be described with reference to Figures 1A, 7, and 8A. The procedure for producing the printed matter 91 is the same for both wet printing and dry printing. In the following description, the reference numerals for the steps shown in Figure 8A will be written in parentheses. The printed matter 91 is produced by passing the substrate 1 as a sheet through the printing device PD twice (two passes).

[0066] In FIG. 8A, first, the adhesive application unit P2 applies a first adhesive to become the first adhesive layer 21 to an area to be the printing portion PT1 on the substrate 1 delivered from the substrate delivery unit P1 (SA11).

[0067] The foil supply unit P3 places the first hologram foil that will become the first hologram foil layer 31 on the first adhesive applied by the adhesive application unit P2, with the hologram surface 31p facing the first adhesive side (SA12).

[0068] Since the printing unit P4 is not used in the production of the printed matter 91, the coating unit P5 applies a UV-curable coating agent such as a UV-curable ink to form the UV ink layer 4 onto the first hologram foil of the intermediate body delivered from the foil supply unit P3 (SA13).

[0069] The UV curing unit P6 irradiates the intermediate body sent out from the coating unit P5 with ultraviolet light, curing the first adhesive and the UV curable coating agent, thereby forming an intermediate body 91A in which the first adhesive layer 21, the first hologram foil layer 31, and the UV ink layer 4 are laminated and cured in this order on the substrate 1 (SA14).

[0070] In the second pass, the intermediate 91A is sent from the substrate sending unit P1 to the adhesive application unit P2. The adhesive application unit P2 applies a second adhesive to become the second adhesive layer 22 onto the UV ink layer 4 (SA21). The second adhesive is a UV-curing adhesive, and the adhesive strength and other properties may be adjusted depending on the types of the UV ink layer 4 and the second hologram foil layer 32, and the second adhesive may have different physical properties from the first adhesive.

[0071] The foil supply unit P3 places the second hologram foil, which will become the second hologram foil layer 32, on the intermediate body coated with the second adhesive sent from the adhesive application unit P2, with the hologram surface 32p facing the second adhesive side (SA22).

[0072] The printing unit P4 and the coating unit P5 are not used, and the UV curing unit P6 irradiates the intermediate body sent out from the foil supply unit P3 with ultraviolet light to harden the second adhesive, resulting in a printed matter 91 having a printed section PT1 in which the second adhesive layer 22 and the second hologram foil layer 32 are laminated and hardened in that order on the intermediate body 91A (SA23).

[0073] (Wet printing of printed matter 92) The procedure for producing printed matter 92 by wet printing is shown in Figure 8B. This procedure differs from the procedure for producing printed matter 91 in that it adds step (SB13) of applying UV ink to become UV ink layer 5 onto the first hologram foil placed in step (SA12), but the rest is the same. That is, steps (SA11), (SA12), (SA13), and (SA14) in Figure 8A correspond to steps (SB11), (SB12), (SA14), and (SA15) in Figure 8B, respectively. Also, steps (SA21) to (SA23) of the second pass in Figure 8A are the same as steps (SB21) to (SB23) of the second pass in Figure 8B, respectively.

[0074] The application of UV ink in (SB13) is a process in which a printing unit P4 is used to print desired patterns, characters, etc. in desired colors.

[0075] (Dry printing of print 92) 8C, the dry printing of the printed matter 92 is performed in three passes. This procedure involves performing steps (SC11) to (SC13), which are the same as steps (SB11) to (SB13) used in the wet printing of the printed matter 92. After this, the first adhesive and the UV ink that will become the UV ink layer 5 are cured by the UV curing unit P6, completing the first pass (SC14).

[0076] Thereafter, in the second pass, the coating unit P5 applies a UV-curable coating agent that will become the UV ink layer 4 (SC21), and this is cured by the UV curing unit P6, completing the second pass (SC22).

[0077] Thereafter, in the third pass, the adhesive application unit P2 applies a second adhesive (SC31). Then, the foil supply unit P3 places the second hologram foil that will become the second hologram foil layer 32 on the applied second adhesive (SC32), and the UV curing unit P6 hardens the second adhesive (SC33), resulting in a printed matter 92 having a printing portion PT2.

[0078] (Printed material 93) Printed matter 93 is produced using the same procedure for both wet printing and dry printing, as shown in Figure 8D. For printed matter 93, the first adhesive layer 21 and first hologram foil layer of printing section PT3 are divided into multiple regions, resulting in a large number of passes, totaling four. This process is explained in detail below.

[0079] In the first pass, the adhesive application unit P2 applies the 1A adhesive to the area where the 1A adhesive layer 211 is to be formed, in the range to be the printing section PT3 of the substrate 1 sent out from the substrate sending unit P1 (SD11).

[0080] The foil supply unit P3 places the 1A hologram foil that will become the 1A hologram foil layer 311 on the 1A adhesive of the intermediate body that has been coated with the 1A adhesive sent from the adhesive application unit P2, with the hologram surface 31p facing the 1A adhesive (SD12). Next, UV ink that will become the UV ink layer 51 is applied to the hologram foil placed in (SD12) (SD13). Next, the UV curing unit P6 cures the 1A adhesive and the UV ink that will become the UV ink layer 51 to form an intermediate 93A in which the 1A adhesive layer 211, the 1A hologram foil layer 311, and the UV ink layer 51 are laminated (SD14), completing the first pass.

[0081] Thereafter, in the second pass, the adhesive application unit P2 applies the 1B adhesive to a desired region where the 1B adhesive layer 212 is to be formed, other than the region where the 1A adhesive layer 211 is formed (SD21).

[0082] Next, foil supply unit P3 places 1B hologram foil, which will become 1B hologram foil layer 312, on top of the 1B adhesive of the intermediate body that has been applied with the 1B adhesive sent from adhesive application unit P2, with hologram surface 31p facing the 1B adhesive (SD22). Next, UV ink, which will become UV ink layer 52, is applied on top of the hologram foil placed in (SD22) (SD23).

[0083] Next, the UV curing unit P6 hardens the 1B adhesive and the UV ink that will become the UV ink layer 52 on the base material 1 of the intermediate body 93A to form an intermediate body 93B in which the 1B adhesive layer 212, the 1B hologram foil layer 312, and the UV ink layer 52 are laminated (SD24), completing the second pass.

[0084] In the third pass, the coating unit P5 applies a UV-curable coating agent that will become the UV ink layer 4 (SC31), and this is cured by the UV curing unit P6 to form an intermediate 93C with the UV ink layer 4 laminated thereon, thereby completing the second pass (SC32).

[0085] In the fourth pass, the adhesive application unit P2 applies a second adhesive onto the UV ink layer 4 (SD41).

[0086] Next, the foil supply unit P3 places the second hologram foil that will become the second hologram foil layer 32 on the second adhesive of the intermediate body delivered from the adhesive application unit P2, with the hologram surface 32p facing the second adhesive side (SD42). This is then transferred to the UV curing unit P6, where the second adhesive is cured by UV irradiation, resulting in a printed matter 93 having a printing part PT3 (SD43).

[0087] (Printed material 94) The printed matter 94 can be produced by using a metal foil instead of the second hologram foil in the step (SD42) of placing the second hologram foil in the flow of the printed matter 93.

[0088] (Printed material 95) As shown in Figure 8E, printed matter 95 can be produced by inserting and adding a step (SB222) of applying UV ink to become UV ink layer 7 between step (SB22) of placing the second hologram foil and step (SB23) of UV curing in the manufacturing process of printed matter 92.

[0089] (Printed material 96) As shown in Figure 8F, printed matter 96 can be produced by inserting and adding a step (SB224) of laminating and forming protective layer 8 between step (SB222) of applying UV ink and step (SB23) of UV curing in the manufacturing process of printed matter 94.

[0090] The aspects of the present invention are not limited to the above-described configurations, and may be modified by combining them to the extent possible without departing from the gist of the present invention.

[0091] The thickness of each layer formed in each embodiment is not limited, and may be appropriately set within a range in which the function of each layer can be exerted.

[0092] Although an example has been described in which the UV ink layer 4 is formed by curing a UV-curable coating agent, the curing system of the coating agent is not limited to UV curing, and the coating agent may be cured by another curing system such as thermal curing.

[0093] The intensity and duration of the UV light irradiated by the UV curing unit P6 may be adjusted depending on the characteristics of the object to be cured. Regarding the curing of the first adhesive layer 21, not only is the curing characteristics of the first adhesive layer 21 adjusted, but the first adhesive is cured by UV light that has passed through the UV-curable coating agent that forms the first hologram foil layer 31 and the UV ink layer 4 that are laminated thereon. Therefore, the UV transmission characteristics of the first hologram foil layer 31 and the UV-curable coating agent may be adjusted so that the first adhesive layer 21 is in a preferred cured state. Regarding the curing of the second adhesive layer 22, not only is the curing characteristics of the second adhesive layer 22 adjusted, but also the UV transmission characteristics of the laminated second hologram foil layer 32 and protective layer 8 may be adjusted so that the second adhesive layer 22 is in a preferred cured state.

[0094] The UV ink layers 5, 51, 52, and 7 may be patterns as well as letters or symbols. The character information aspects M5, M51, M52, and M7 include information conveyed by patterns.

[0095] In addition to the above-described peeling process of the adhesive tape 81, the second hologram foil layer 32 and the second adhesive layer 22 can also be scraped off with a metal piece or the like, which may result in scraping off the underlying layers, including the UV ink layer 4. The above-described first to fifth embodiments can be realized by limiting the peeling of layers above the UV ink layer 4 to only the adhesion area AR1 of the adhesive tape 81. For this reason, it is desirable to evaluate the authenticity of the printed materials 91 to 95 by exposing the UV ink layer 4 through the peeling process of the adhesive tape 81.
