Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a laminated security ticket comprising a carrier sheet of paper material and a face sheet of direct thermal paper.
  • the invention further relates to a system for handling security tickets.
  • tickets can incorporate some form of machine-readable code so that entrance can only be granted to ticket-holders whose ticket includes the prerequisite code.
  • machine-readable code By using different codes for different sections of the stadium or arena, entrance to various sections can be effectively controlled.
  • a flexible and easily adaptable printing technique is needed.
  • the ticket also displays a visible security pattern so that a visible check of the ticket is possible.
  • One known type of security ticket is preferably of a laminate construction comprising a carrier sheet of card or paper and a sheet of face material of thermal paper.
  • relevant information such as the name of the event, date, time, seat number, etc. can be printed onto the face material simultaneously with a machine-readable code.
  • the machine-readable code is normally of a bar code type which can be read by a scanner. Scanners are installed for example at entrances to arenas where the event for which the ticket is valid is being held. The ticket is inserted into a slot reader containing the scanner and, provided that the bar code information corresponds to information previously entered into the memory of the computer to which the scanner is connected, the holder of the ticket is admitted to the arena.
  • Such tickets are, however, relatively easy to copy since the bar code can be photocopied. Thus, the potential purchaser of such a ticket has no means of assuring that the ticket is in fact genuine and not a forgery.
  • a multilayer identification card is known from US-A-4 579 754 in which information in the form of patterns, letters, numbers and/or pictures is inscribed by means of a laser recorder in a laser transformable layer of the identification card which is made of plastic and is transparent in the visible spectral range.
  • a laminated security ticket comprising a carrier sheet of paper material and a face sheet of direct thermal paper, the ticket being characterized in that said face sheet is sufficiently transparent to permit the carrier sheet to be seen therethrough.
  • a system for handling security tickets comprising a supply of carrier sheets, a supply of transparent or semi-transparent face sheets, means for laminating the carrier sheets to the face sheets, hardware for thermal printing information on said face sheets, software to allow variation of the information printed on said face sheets and a programmable scanner for reading at least some of the information on the thus formed ticket.
  • the security ticket according to the present invention is provided with a face sheet of direct thermal paper which is sufficiently transparent to allow the carrier sheet to be seen therethrough, information printed on the surface of the carrier sheet to which the face sheet is applied is legible.
  • the ticket issuer can specify a particular design, security pattern or watermark for the carrier sheet for a particular event from the manufacturer of the carrier sheet and a visible check as to the authenticity of the tickets is easily attainable.
  • the carrier sheet may also be provided with a machine-readable code, for example a bar code, which can be read by a scanner.
  • a machine-readable code for example a bar code, which can be read by a scanner.
  • the markings on the carrier sheet be they a security pattern, a machine-readable code or both, may be printed on either or both faces of the sheet.
  • the carrier sheet is provided with a watermark in the form of a machine-readable bar code.
  • the bar code is then readable through the transparent or semi- transparent face sheet. It is to be understood that a carrier sheet comprising a water mark in the form of a machine-readable bar code may be manufactured and sold as a separate sheet.
  • the transparent or semi-transparent face sheet of the security ticket of the present invention may also be printed with a security pattern.
  • the carrier sheet may advantageously be provided with just a watermark since the light-transmitting properties of the face sheet will allow the watermark to be clearly visible when the ticket is held up to the light and viewed from the side remote from the face sheet.
  • a preferred security pattern be it for the carrier sheet, the face sheet or both, is a so called Guilloche pattern.
  • the ticket issuer may be provided with an adaptable printing system for printing the face sheets. As well as printing information on the face sheet relating to the event for which the ticket is valid, a machine-readable code may also be printed. Since the printing system is adaptable by the ticket issuer, the issuer is not restricted to the use of standard bar codes, but instead is free to use different algorithms for the code for different events or for different sections of the arena or stadium in which the event is to take place.
  • the face sheet is a sheet of infrared readable thermal paper.
  • the bar code which is printed on the face sheet is IR- readable, i.e. readable by an infrared scanner.
  • a "black window" formed from an infrared black ink can be preprinted on the face sheet. In this blackened window is then thermally printed a particular bar code by the ticket issuer.
  • a major advantage with this type of bar code is that it is not readable in the visible light spectrum and so is not copyable using standard photocopying techniques.
  • the entrances to the stadium or arena in which the event for which the tickets have been produced is to take place are provided with programmable scanning means into which the relevant data concerning the codes used by the ticket issuer is entered.
  • the scanning means includes those scanners which are necessary to read the machine-readable information on the tickets.
  • the carrier sheet is provided with a visible bar code and the face sheet with an IR-readable code
  • both a visible light scanner and an IR scanner are provided in the scanner means.
  • a particular advantage with the present invention is that the transparent or semi-transparent face sheet allows the machine- readable information printed on the carrier sheet to be read from the same side as the information carried on the face sheet.
  • the scanners in the scanning means need only be provided on one side.
  • the security ticket according to the present invention can incorporate different levels of security.
  • the ticket may comprise a carrier sheet provided with a watermark and/or preprinted security code and a transparent direct thermal face sheet.
  • machine-readable codes of standard type may be incorporated on the carrier and face sheet.
  • the carrier sheet may be provided with a security pattern, whilst the face sheet may be of infrared-readable thermal paper preprinted with a blackened window for an IR-readable code of non-standard type.

Abstract

Afin de rendre plus difficile la reproduction de tickets, on décrit un ticket de sécurité stratifié comprenant une feuille support de matériau en papier et une feuille en surface de papier thermique direct. La feuille en surface est suffisamment transparente pour permettre de voir à travers la feuille support. Une telle disposition permet à la feuille support d'avoir un filigrane et/ou un motif de sécurité, et/ou un code lisible par une machine et visible par la feuille en surface. La feuille en surface elle-même peut être pourvue d'un motif de sécurité et/ou d'un code lisible par une machine.
