BRIEF SUMMARY
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to a registration form for the registration of one or more particulars of a person or an object and of an identification means of that person or that object, as well as for coupling the particulars and the identification means to a registration mark.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
From GB-A-2.272.667 an identity card is known which is laminated when ready, consisting of a form, wherein an identification means in the form of a photograph may be permanently incorporated between two form zones adhering to each other. The form also comprises a zone in which particulars are recorded that are to be processed by an administrative staff.
Such a registration form or application form or processing form is in practice used for feeding (digitalized) membership administrations such as of sports clubs. However, the form may also be used for the registration of paintings, jewellery and other objects. In such a case the registration form may serve to feed a data file which may or may not be digitalized. The existing registration forms have the disadvantage that they require various processing steps to be carried out by an administrative staff in order to couple the identification means undetachably to the particulars filled in on the form.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The inventions aims to simplify this, so that the administrative staff is required to carry out fewer processing steps. Another aim of the invention is to allow the user of the form to determine the quality of the identification means to be used himself. This is realized by means of the registration form according to the invention because it comprises, at least for a part, an interacting upper and under part which are detachable from and reattachable to each other, and between the upper and under part of which the identification means can be visibly incorporated. In this way the person filling in the registration form may include the identification means in the form without involving the administrative staff. Subsequently, the administrative staff is merely required to process the registration form, thus avoiding the risk of coupling the identification means to the particulars of the wrong person or object.
Preferably the upper part comprises a space or a transparent zone behind which the identification means can be affixed. Such a space or transparent zone defines a frame in which the identification means, for instance, a photograph of the person or the object, may be positioned exactly as desired. This could be useful in cases where the registration form is utilized for a personal administration when it also serves for the issue of registration certificates which carry a reproduction of such identification means. The frame then assists the positioned reproducibility of the identification means which is finally to be applied to the registration certificate. But also--in general--with other kinds of reproduction of the digitalized image based on the registration form, for instance, via a computer screen, the positioned reproducibility does not depend on operations by the administrative staff.
In a particular embodiment of the invention the form can be separated into a first field carrying the particulars of the person or object and a second field provided with the detachable and reattachable upper part and under part, wherein both the first field and the second field carries the registration mark. This has the advantage of allowing separate processing of the first field carrying the personal or object particulars and the second field which is provided with the identification means without yet causing any confusion regarding the coupling between the particulars and the identification means. Preferably the space is formed by removing a zone delimited by a perforation line from the upper part, which zone is provided with the registration mark. This part may be retained by the user. Should the coupling between the identification means and the registration mark become broken during the further processing of the registr
