- The present invention relates to an engraved face photograph display sheet and a face photograph display sheet to be collated with an identification face photograph, and a certificate for use with the sheets, and more particularly, to an engraved face photograph display sheet, a face photograph display sheet and a certificate for use with the sheets which can be inserted together with sheets, on which necessary articles are mentioned, into an identification notebook, such as a passport, a certificate or the like.
- In the present invention, besides the passport, a stock certificate, a bankbook, a personal check, a car registration certificate and the like are given as examples of the identification certificate.
- Conventionally, a face photograph, which is attached to various kinds of certificates, such as a passport, is taken by the applicant, pasted on a prescribed sheet of a certificate, sealed to prevent forgery, and covered with a transparent sticker.
- However, since the photograph tends to peel in the above adhesion method, it is possible that the certificate will be forged or altered by exchanging the photograph for another photograph. For example, if a traveler has his passport stolen or has lost his passport, the passport may be abused and the traveler may sustain an unexpected loss.
- In order to solve the above conventional problem, the inventor of the present invention conducted various examinations and found that it was possible to easily judge whether an adhering photograph is exchanged for another photograph and to perfectly prevent forgery by engraving a face photograph or a two-tone (for example, black and white or brown and white) photograph on a synthetic resin sheet according to a face photograph adhering at the time of application, so that the inventor has developed the present invention.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a face photograph display sheet to be collated with an identification face photograph, in which a face photograph with density gradation is engraved on a surface layer at a predetermined portion of a synthetic resin sheet.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a face photograph display sheet to be collated with an identification face photograph, in which a colored engraving base layer is buried in a synthetic resin sheet and forms a smooth plane connected to the sheet as a unit, and in which a face photograph with density gradation is engraved on the colored engraving base layer.
- Still another object of the present invention is to provide a certificate, such as a passport, in which an engraved face photograph display sheet or a face photograph display sheet having the above arrangement is inserted and fastened.
- In an engraved face photograph display sheet of the present invention, a face photograph with density gradation is directly engraved on a surface layer at a predetermined portion of a synthetic resin sheet. In a face photograph display sheet of the present invention, a colored engraving base layer is buried in a synthetic resin sheet and forms a smooth plane connected to the sheet as a unit and a face photograph with density gradation is engraved (engraved with two colors, such as black and white) on the colored engraving base layer.
- Therefore, even if an adhering face photograph is exchanged for another photograph, it is possible to easily execute identification and to completely prevent forgery by collating and comparing (checking in the same manner as a normal engraved printing) the face photograph with an engraved face photograph displayed on an engraved face photograph display sheet or a face photograph display sheet of the present invention.
- Furthermore, in the present invention, a face photograph is directly engraved on a surface layer at a predetermined portion of a synthetic resin sheet, and a two-tone, such as black and white, image (face photograph) engraved on a colored engraving base layer is buried in the synthetic resin sheet and forms a smooth plane connected to the sheet as a unit. Therefore, the sheet has high durability, is more unlikely to be damaged by friction compared with the case in which the photograph is pasted on the sheet, and can withstand long use.

- Figs. 1 and 2 are sectional views showing an embodiment of a process of producing the present invention, and Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing the state in which a passport is open.
- First, a face
photograph display sheet 12 is formed in the same shape as eachsheet 11 in a passport 10̸ shown in Fig. 3 by using a synthetic resin sheet approximately 0̸.1 to 0̸.2mm in thickness. Then, an engraved face photograph 15 with density gradation is engraved at a proper portion of the facephotograph display sheet 12 by means of a conventional known engraving apparatus, described below, based on aphotograph 13 attached in the same manner as on a conventional passport. As a result, a passport in which the engraved face photograph display sheet is inserted and fastened can be produced. - In the above case, the face photograph is directly engraved on a surface layer at a predetermined portion of the synthetic resin sheet. Next, the case, in which a colored engraving base layer is unitedly buried in a synthetic resin sheet and a face photograph is engraved on the colored engraving base layer, will be described.
- In the same manner as above, a face
photograph display sheet 12 is formed in the same shape as eachsheet 11 in a passport 10̸ by using a synthetic resin sheet 1 of approximately 0̸.1 to 0̸.2mm in thickness. Then, as shown in Fig. 1, a coloredengraving base layer 2 is mounted on the face photograph display sheet 12 (the synthetic resin sheet 1). In order to mount the colored engraving base layer, a method of applying paints, ink composite or the like or a printing method, such as offset printing, can be used. Next, as shown in Fig. 2, the facephotograph display sheet 12 provided with the coloredengraving base layer 2 is applied with heat and pressure by means of a heating plate, a heating roller or the like so as to bury the coloredengraving base layer 2 into the face photograph display sheet 12 (the synthetic resin sheet 1) and form a smooth plane unitedly composed of the coloredengraving base layer 2 and the face photograph display sheet 12 (the synthetic resin sheet 1). - After that, a face photograph 16, which is a black and white shaded image with density gradation, is engraved at a
proper portion 14 of such facephotograph display sheet 12 by means of a conventional known engraving apparatus, described below, according to aphotograph 13 attached in the same manner as in a conventional passport, so that a passport in which the face photograph display sheet is inserted an fastened can be produced. - Fig. 4 is a structural view of a conventional known engraving apparatus and shows the mechanism for engraving an engraved face photograph or a face photograph at a proper portion of a sheet according to a photograph document. The apparatus is disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication (Kokoku) No.54-31410̸, No.54-25451 and so on.
- As shown in Fig. 4,
numeral 21 denotes a scanning head provided with a light source lamp and a multiplication tube, andnumeral 22 denotes an engraving head provided with an engraving stylus which vibrates up and down. Adocument pedestal 23 for laying aphotograph document 28 thereon and anengraving pedestal 24 for laying asheet 29 thereon are respectively disposed under bothheads swing arm 26 through aswing lever 25. - In the above arrangement, a spotlight from the light source in the
scanning head 21 shines a point on thephotograph document 28, the light reflected from the point enters the light multiplication tube, and photoelectric current in accordance with the amount of the light reflected from thephotograph document 28, that is, the shade of thephotograph document 28 arises. The photoelectric current passes through a proper calculation amplification circuit and controls the degree to which the stylus of theengraving head 22 cuts into the sheet 29 (precisely, the colored engraving base layer disposed on a proper portion of the sheet 29). - Since the tip of the stylus is pyramidal, if the stylus cuts deep into the
sheet 29, the area of a concave portion is large and the area of the remained portion of thesheet 29 is small. In other words, that corresponds to a high-light portion of thephotograph document 28. On the other hand, if the stylus cuts shallowly, the area of the concave portion is small, the area of the remained portion is large, and that corresponds to a shadow portion of thephotograph document 28. Thus, an engraved image with density gradation, such as a face photograph, is formed. - The number of lines in the direction of the reciprocation movement of the
engraving pedestal 24 is determined by adding a periodical intermittent movement in accordance with the desired number of lines and the speed of the reciprocation movement of the pedestal to the up and down movement of the stylus in accordance with the shades. - When a line is cut in a reciprocation movement of the
engraving pedestal 24, theengraving head 22 and thescanning head 21 connected to theengraving head 22 through alateral transport lever 27 are laterally moved by a pitch in accordance with the number of lines. Then, another line is cut by a reciprocation movement of theengraving pedestal 24. - According to such operations, it is possible to cut the surface layer at a proper portion of an optional face photograph display sheet 12 (the synthetic resin sheet 1) or a portion of the colored
engraving base layer 2 buried in thesheet 12 and to produce an engraved image or a black and white shaded image of an optional face photograph on thephotograph document 28. - The kind of the synthetic resin sheet 1 forming the face
photograph display sheet 12 is particularly not limited, the sheet may be made of a conventional plastic material, such polyvinyl chloride resin, polyolefine resin or the like. - Furthermore, as a coloring agent in the paints or the ink composite used to mount the colored
engraving base layer 2, a conventional inorganic pigment, a conventional organic dye or pigment or the like can be used. - As described above, according to the engraved face photograph display sheet, the face photograph display sheet and the certificate for use with the sheets, even if the attached photograph is exchanged for another photograph, since it is impossible to exchange the engraved face photograph, which is a black and white shaded image, of the present invention, identification can be easily and certainly performed. Therefore, it is possible to extremely effectively utilize an identification notebook, such as a passport, a certificate and so on.
