Optically variable surface pattern

摘要

An optically variable surface pattern ( 1 ) contains relief structures ( 9.1; 9.2; 9.3 ) for producing at least two representations ( 2; 3; 4 ). The relief structures ( 9.1; 9.2; 9.3 ) have a period length (L) of at least five micrometers and are sawtooth-shaped. The relief structures ( 9.1; 9.2; 9.3 ) associated with different representations ( 2; 3; 4 ) have different angles of inclination (alpha;beta;gamma). The angles of inclination are so selected that the representations ( 2; 3; 4 ) can be perceived separately by a viewer on the one hand and on the other hand when producing a copy by means of a color photocopier they are all transferred onto the copy.
