Patent AU-2025800-A (AU)
Title: Fluid energy transfer device
Inventor: YARR GEORGE A
IPC: F01C1/10
Filed: 1999-11-17
Abstract: A trochoidal gear pump or engine uses a coaxial hub with the outer and/or inner rotor and an associated rolling element bearing assembly that preferably uses pre-loaded bearings to precisely set the rotational axis and/or the axial position of the rotor with which it is associated. This allows the fixed-gap clearance between the rotor surfaces and the housing surfaces or the other rotor surfaces to be set at a distance that minimizes operating fluid shear forces and/or by-pass leakage and eliminates gear tooth wear thus preserving effective chamber to chamber sealing. The device is useful in handling gaseous and two-phase fluids in expansion/contracting fluid engines/compressors and can incorporate an output shaft that accommodates an integrated condensate pump for use with Rankine cycles. A vent from the housing cavity to a lower pressure input or output port regulates built-up fluid pressure in the housing thereby optimizing the efficiency of the device by controlling bypass leakage.

Title: Method and apparatus for cryptographically camouflaged cryptographic key storage certification and use
Inventor: KAUSIK BALAS NATARAJAN
IPC: H04L9/30
Filed: 1998-12-22
Abstract: A digital wallet stores a cryptographically camouflaged access-controlled datum (330), e.g., a private key encrypted under the user's PIN (300). Entry of the correct PIN will correctly decrypt the stored key (330). Entry of certain "pseudo-valid" PINs will also decrypt the stored key, but incorrectly, resulting in a candidate key indistinguishable from the correct key (350). Such pseudo-valid PINs are spread thinly over the space of PINs, so that the valid user is unlikely to realize a pseudo-valid PIN via a typographical error in entering the correct PIN. In existing wallet technologies only the correct PIN produces a candidate key; thus, hackers can discover the correct PIN by exhaustive search.
