Descripcion de la invencionDescription of the invention

El dispositivo portador de imagenes latentes objeto de la presente invencion, comprendiendo una placa transparente o traslucida, preferentemente de vidrio y unos elementos de iluminacion enfrentados a al menos uno de los extremos o cantos de la placa de vidrio, presenta unas particularidades constructivas orientadas a permitir la visualizacion a conveniencia de una imagen latente grabada en al menos uno de los laterales o caras de la placa transparente, de forma que dicha imagen latente sea inapreciable (no visible) y la placa transparente mantenga su trasparencia cuando los medios de iluminacion no se encuentran en funcionamiento, y que dicha imagen latente se ilumine y sea claramente visible cuando los medios de iluminacion proyectan luz sobre la misma.The device carrying latent images object of the present invention, comprising a transparent or translucent plate, preferably of glass and lighting elements facing at least one of the ends or edges of the glass plate, has constructional features oriented to allow the convenient display of a latent image recorded on at least one of the sides or faces of the transparent plate, such that said latent image is invaluable (not visible) and the transparent plate maintains its transparency when the lighting means are not found in operation, and that said latent image is illuminated and clearly visible when the lighting means cast light on it.

Para ello, y de acuerdo con la invencion, la placa transparente presenta en una de sus superficies o caras una imagen latente definida por unas microincisiones, regulares o irregulares, de una amplitud comprendida entre 1 y 8 micras y una profundidad comprendida entre 1 y 7 micras, que no resultan apreciables a simple vista, y mantienen la transparencia de la placa en la zona de definicion de dicha imagen latente.To do this, and according to the invention, the transparent plate has on one of its surfaces or faces a latent image defined by microincisions, regular or irregular, of an amplitude between 1 and 8 microns and a depth between 1 and 7 microns, which are not visible to the naked eye, and maintain the transparency of the plate in the area of definition of said latent image.

Dichas microincisiones se encuentran distribuidas de forma mas o menos regular por la superficie correspondiente a la imagen latente ocupando aproximadamente entre el 1% y el 6% del total de la superficie de la imagen latente a visualizar.Said microincisions are distributed more or less regularly over the surface corresponding to the latent image occupying approximately 1% to 6% of the total surface of the latent image to be displayed.

De este modo, en un vidrio aparentemente transparente, cuando se ilumina la totalidadThus, in a seemingly transparent glass, when the totality is illuminated
