Definitions
- the present invention relates to informational articles which are provided with a zone within which information will be provided either in handwritten or printed form and, more specifically, it relates to providing such an article wherein both counterfeiting, through photocopying, and alteration through manual or printed means are resisted.
- the present invention has met the above-described need by providing a means for an informational article, such as a temporary license plate as supplied by the state, to inherently resist counterfeiting by photocopying and also further means to resist any alteration of the information inserted by the vehicle dealer.
- an informational article such as a temporary license plate as supplied by the state
- the informational article has a preprinted side containing basic information, such as the state in which it is effective and a zone on such side for insertion of the expiration date by the dealer. It is obvious that such temporary plates must be sufficiently large as to be view ⁇ able from a substantial distance such that a law enforcement officer, for example, could without getting out of his or her vehicle, quickly determine whether the temporary vehicle registration has expired.
- the present invention provides a pattern within the zone which preferably is a refractive image, such as a hologram so as to resist reproduction by a form of photo- copying. Efforts to photocopy, even on paper of identical color as the original form would fail to reproduce the refractive image and thereby preclude photocopying as a means of counterfeiting the temporary registration plate.
- a refractive image such as a hologram
- the invention contemplates the dealer after applying the date of expiration within the zone placing an adhesively bonded transparent tape which might be made of a polyester or polyolefin, for example, over that area.
- the tape preferably is covered with a write resistant coating which is preferably a silicone resin to which a wax, such as polytetrafluoroethylene, has been added.
- the method of the present invention involves providing such an informational article, inserting the information within the zone with at least a portion of it being on the pattern to resist reproduction and thereafter applying the write resistant protective tape thereover to adhesively bond the same. It is an object of the present invention to pro ⁇ vide an efficient means for resisting counterfeiting by photocopying or alteration of an information containing article.
- Figure 1 is a front elevational view of a specimen temporary vehicle registration plate of the present invention.
- Figure 2 is a cross-sectional illustration of the temporary plate of the present invention taken through 2-2 of Figure 1.
- Figure 3 is a front elevational view of the speci ⁇ men temporary vehicle registration plate of Figure 1 after insertion of the information and applying the protective means.
- Figure 4 is a cross-sectional illustration of the completed informational article of Figure 3.
- the term "refractive image” means any visually perceptible contrasting portion which has contrast increased upon exposure to either natural or artificial light and shall include, but not be limited to photographs, illustrations, printed patterns, colors, and holograms.
- the term “informational article” means an article or portion thereof which is intended to communicate information and will expressly include, but not be limited to temporary vehicle registration plates, security signs, labels and cards, checks, bank drafts, money orders, and other types of informational signs, labels, and cards.
- FIG. 1 and 2 there is shown a paper or paperboard temporary registration form prior to insertion of "Che expiration date.
- the form is generally rectangular in shape and may have the size on the order of about 8 to 12 inches by about 4 to 8 inches. It is printed on one side and, in the form shown, has information regarding the state in the upper horizontal portion 2. It also has a horizontal zone 4 underlying zone 2 within which the expiration date will be inserted by the vehicle dealer either by the use of a pen, or marker to provide a thicker line, or by suitable printing means. Zone 4 may be considered as having upper and lower limits between the arrow points disposed above and below the word "EXPIRES" on both sides of zone 4.
- the blank space underlying zone 4 may be employed to provide a vehicle serial number, if desired.
- a pattern 6 which preferably is a refractive image such that any effort to counterfeit the temporary registration form by photocopying will be defeated.
- the preferred form of refractive image would be a hologram which, in the form shown, has a plurality of repeated diamond shapes such that as the form is moved in either natural or artificial light, varying colors will be seen within each zone. As a result, even if one were to photocopy the blank form on paper or paperboard of the identical color employed by the state, the color produced by the hologram would not be duplicated in appearance.
- a pattern on a reflective background is generally preferred.
- the dealer sells a vehicle he or she will insert, either manually or by printing means, in large numbers which can be viewed from a substantial distance, the date of expiration of the temporary registration within zone 4.
- the pattern 6 may be integrally provided in zone 4 or may be formed on a separate element which is adhesively bonded within zone 4 or provided as a coating.
- FIG. 1 and 2 Shown in Figures 1 and 2 is a tape member 10 which has been presecured to the printed face 12 of the temporary plate by suitable pressure-sensitive adhesive means within region 14 of the tape assembly 10 which can be either within zone 4 or adjacent thereto.
- the tape assembly 10 which is folded upwardly could be stored in a downward position overlying pattern 6.
- the tape assembly 10 has a strippable protective web 16 secured to the adhesive side of tape 20 to resist undesired premature sticking.
- Tape 20 is transparent and preferably composed of a material selected from the group consisting of polyester and polyolefins with polyeth ⁇ ylene and polypropylene being among the preferred materials in the latter generic category.
- zone 4 The information is inserted within zone 4 in at least partial overlying position with respect to pattern 6 which, preferably, is a continuous tape or coating, but may in the alternative, be segmented so as to provide discrete areas of the dates.
- Protective web 16 is then removed from tape 20 and protective web 16 is urged downwardly in overlying position with respect to the information provided in zone 4 and secured thereto in surface-to-surface contact by means of the pressure- sensitive adhesive on the undersurface of tape 20.
- tape assembly 10 may be provided as a separate member rather than one that was presecured.
- the exposed surface of the protective web tape preferably has a coating of a silicone resin so as to resist any efforts to write thereon in a manner that would overlay and alter the dates.
- a silicone resin in the most preferred form of the invention, about 2 1/2 to 10 percent by weight of a wax is incorporated in the silicone resin so as to enhance the write resistant characteristics in respect of marker pens, crayons, pens, and the like. This renders the exposed surface of tape 20 non-wetting with respect to inks.
- the preferred silicone resin is a heat curable resin.
- the preferred wax is polytetrafluoroethylene. Referring to Figures 3 and 4, the completed tempo ⁇ rary plate will be considered.
- the protective tape 20 overlies patterned portion 6 with the month 26, day 28, and year 30 being in partial overlying position with respect to the patterned portion 6 and partially overlying other portions of zone 4.
- the tape 20 is adhesively secured in overlying surface-to-surface position with respect to zone 4.
- any effort to lift tape 20 will result in the adhesive taking with it at least portions of the infor ⁇ mation receiving zone 4 which are not covered by pattern 6 and, if desired, portions of pattern 6.
- Suitable adhesives for use on the tape are an acrylic base pressure-sensitive adhesive for paper or paperboard articles and a rubber based adhesive for plastic articles, for example.
- the height of the pattern is about 40 to 60 percent of zone 4 in which the information will be inserted.
- a portion of the numbers or other information will be applied over the pattern and a portion will not.
- the pres ⁇ ence of a pattern underlying a portion of the number enhances the counterfeit protection.
- the presence of the information on the article itself and on the pattern makes it more difficult for one to attempt to remove the tape without destroying the underlying materials.
- the method of the present invention involves providing the appropriate form, inserting the desired infor ⁇ mation in at least partial overlying relationship with respect to the pattern and thereafter covering the informa ⁇ tion within the zone 4 by means of an adhesively bonded transparent tape member 20 which has its exterior surface write resistant treated.
- the present invention provides a simple and effective means of resisting both counterfeiting and alteration of informational articles, such as temporary vehicle registration plates.
- the inven- tion is sufficiently inexpensive to use as to be adapted for use in disposable items.
