Abstract
Abstract ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The invention relates to a method for pro-tecting sound records and the labels and/or packages thereof against imitation, in which individual character-izing data are marked on said labels and/or packages, characterized in that an additional characterizing or distinctive mark is applied to the labels, packages or sound records corresponding to the individual character-izing data in coded form, that the labels, packages or records are verified whether there is coincidence between the coded characterizing data and the additional charac-terizing or distinctive mark and that an imitation is detected in case a plurality of labels, packages or sound records have the same characterizing data or the same additional characterizing or distinctive marks.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
50 words
A method for protecting sound records and/ or labels and/or packages thereof against imitation, in which a distinctive mark is recorded on the sound record, label and/or package, characterized in that the distinc-tive mark is formed by coding of individual character-izing data of the respective sound record, label and/or package.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
50 words
A method for protecting sound records and/ or labels and/or packages thereof against imitation, in which a distinctive mark is recorded on the sound record, label and/or package, characterized in that the distinc-tive mark is formed by coding of individual character-izing data of the respective sound record, label and/or package.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
21 words
The method of claim 1, characterized in that the individual characterizing data indicate the type of relation to the distinctive mark.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
43 words
The method of claim 1, characterized in that the individual characterizing data form successive numbers of the respective sound records, labels and/or packages, respectively, and that said distinctive mark consists of numerals which are related to the successive numbers through an algebraic operation.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
25 words
The method of claim 3, characterized in that the individual characterizing data and the addi-tional distinctive mark consist of characters which may be automatically read.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
43 words
The method of claim 2, characterized in that the individual characterizing data form successive numbers of the respective sound records, labels and/or packages, respectively, and that said distinctive mark consists of numerals which are related to the successive numbers through an algebraic operation.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
25 words
The method of claim 5, characterized in that the individual characterizing data and the addi-tional distinctive mark consist of characters which may be automatically read.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
80 words
A marking device for recording a distinc-tive mark on sound records, labels and/or packages for protecting the sound records, labels and/or packages, respectively, against imitation, characterized in that a coding device is connected to a device for applying individual characterizing data on labels (10, 17) and/or packages (15, 19), said coding device generating a coded characterizing mark (14) from said characteriz-ing data (13) and controlling a recording device applying said characterizing mark additionally to the labels, packages and/or sound records.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
80 words
A marking device for recording a distinc-tive mark on sound records, labels and/or packages for protecting the sound records, labels and/or packages, respectively, against imitation, characterized in that a coding device is connected to a device for applying individual characterizing data on labels (10, 17) and/or packages (15, 19), said coding device generating a coded characterizing mark (14) from said characteriz-ing data (13) and controlling a recording device applying said characterizing mark additionally to the labels, packages and/or sound records.
