Information paper for identity certificate book

The present invention relates to information paper or identity certification information paper in a certificate of identity such as a passport. More particularly, the present invention relates to a data sheet having improved safety characteristics made from a combination of innovative polymeric materials.

Travel documents, also known as passports, such as these identity certificates or safety books, should be manufactured with the necessary security or security to avoid counterfeiting. Passport manufacturing has now used a variety of systems and methods to enhance the security of passports in all aspects. One such system or method is to embed an identity code, optical memory, electronic or magnetic wafer in a passport book or its data sheet. Another research and development direction of the identity certificate book is to make the information paper attached to the identity certificate book with high security and anti-counterfeiting security design and innovation.

There have been several techniques in the prior art relating to the data sheet and the manner in which it is attached to the identity certificate book. PCT Patent Application Publication No. WO2012098216 discloses a security document and a method of manufacturing the same that attach a data sheet to a security document booklet using a one-page set. The data sheet is made of polycarbonate (PC), and the sheet sleeve comprises three layers of different materials, including a first polyester fiber layer, a second plastic polyurethane (PU) or polyester adhesive layer, and a third polycarbonate. Ester layer. Since the sheet sleeve is an outer material sheet, and the polycarbonate surface is thermally bonded to the polycarbonate material sheet, the strength of the data sheet attached to the identity certificate book is insufficient, which may result in the identity certificate book. The risk of forgery of the material page is increased.

European Patent No. EP2433810 discloses a manual electronic passport comprising a piece of information paper having a data sheet carrying personal identification information and a connection page glued to the cover page of the passport book. The data sheet is a multi-layer material in which each layer is made of polycarbonate and the first and second layers contain one or more security or security elements. However, it attaches the data sheet to the passport book using only a simple sticking method, and does not provide an intermediate layer or special design for the additional portion of the data sheet. The use of glued adhesives may result in the separation of the data sheet from the passport book due to aging of the adhesive, which is extremely risky.

Polish Patent No. PL333063 also discloses another passport invention, which provides an information page containing information on the identity of the passport owner and photos. The information sheet also contains a thermoplastic material such as polycarbonate and is personalized by laser beam engraving. However, it is the same as the electronic passport of EP2433810, and no intermediate layer or reinforcing material is added to the additional part of the information page. In addition, the patent does not mention a method or system for combining information pages with the rest of the passport book.

European Patent No. EP 1 574 359 discloses a laminated paper for use in a safety booklet and a method of manufacturing the same. The laminated paper comprises at least two rigid polycarbonate core layers and a flexible nylon element interposed therebetween, the nylon elements extending beyond the outer edges of the core layers to form a flexible strip. The flexible element can be provided in the form of an intermediate layer and includes a plurality of holes in which the core material layer is bonded together and the flexible element is attached to the laminated paper. The laminated paper can be used for travel documents such as passports, and can include a hard core embedded layer in which a non-contact integrated circuit chip is embedded. However, the prior invention did not mention the use of any reinforcing material to increase the strength of the nylon, thus failing to ensure a firm and durable combination of the laminated paper and the safety book.

Accordingly, the present invention is intended to provide an information paper for a certificate of identity, The identity certificate book specifically refers to a passport or travel document, and the information paper of the present invention contains improved security features, particularly in the data page and in the portion of the information paper attached to the identity certificate book.
