The present invention relates to a method for marking consisting of several elements of packaging for satariano in her products, as well as to an apparatus for carrying out the method. In the context of the present invention the term "Satarova products" refers to piece the products are grouped or with a few products, as well as to bulk or dispersed materials. The present invention relates primarily to such satariano products as products of the tobacco industry and in this case it is preferable cigarettes, as well as filter cigarette, which usually grouped or stocked in a certain way on several pieces as supply during the successive stages of individual elements of the package in the form of inserts, inlays or onlays, respectively enclosed in the packaging material supplied in the form of blanks and forming the inner and outer wrapper. Depending on the applied for this purpose packaging materials as a result of packaging in the form of so-called soft packs or hard packs (with hinged cover).
The present invention was used to develop measures that would allow to establish the fact prefabrication of each individual packaging for the protection ol the products from counterfeits.
This problem is solved in the proposed invention the marking device consisting of several elements of packaging for satariano it products due to the fact that the individual items of the packaging supply characteristic marking signs, and at least one element of the package provide a marking sign, cryptographically linked on the basis of individual characteristic marking of the characteristics of the individual elements of the package.
Supply of marking only the packaging elements without drawing on satariano in this packaging products provides at acceptable costs effective protection of products against forgery. When this marking signs can be applied in the form of visually visible or invisible random numbers, in the form of text information or bar code. The actual process of marking can be done, for example, a printed, optical (laser), magnetic, electric (on the basis of the change in conductivity) or other method.
In the particular case of the method of individual packaging elements can be supplied random characteristic marking signs.
According to one of the options that are required to be registered by the reader according to the markings on the material of the individual items of the packaging cryptographicexception code packaging accordingly, the control code can be provided if the packaging elements to guide in the process of packing has already been done on them before the packaging process characteristic marking signs, and ready packaging to provide cryptographically linked marking sign.
In another embodiment, the random characteristic marking signs proposed to be applied to the feed elements of the packaging in the packaging process, and cryptographically linked marking sign to put on the outside of, respectively, read from the outside element of the finished package.
In both cases, with the aim to use for marking the maximum number of packaging elements can be provided not only to be read outside of the marking signs, but also have inside the package marking signs that can be read only after opening the package.
According to another variant, intended primarily for process manufacturing cigarette packs, marking signs, which refers to the packaging, it is proposed to apply in the process of packing preferably on the inner wrapper, the blend box, outer wrapper, tear strip, and a transparent outer wrapper of the package.
In the above with the person marking individual items of the packaging, it is advisable to apply in the packaging process sequentially on the packing satariano products.
In addition, to further enhance the protection of products against forgery by marking only the packaging elements preferably cryptographically linked marking sign is additionally contained related to the production process of marking signs. Such marking signs can carry, for example, information about the date of manufacture, place of manufacture and the manufacturer's individual packaging that allows the reader besides checking the control code, relating to individual items of the packaging, to analyze the reliability of other data. Thus the reader should assume only a single detection or identification of individual code packaging, i.e. with repeated detection of the same code in another package this package is classified as counterfeit, respectively as containing counterfeit products. In order to eliminate the possibility of illegal manufacture of a large number of packages with the same marking signs reader, it is advisable to centrally coordinate among themselves with a certain periodicity. In the implementation proposed in the invention of the method of marking according to another preferred variant it is necessary that h is ordinary at least one marking sign is preferably cryptographically linked marking sign, was made to be read from the outside.
The object of the invention is also an installation for marking consisting of several elements of packaging for satariano in her products.
