Abstract: A double, back to back oriented mechanical end face seal (10) for use in sealing toxic or corrosive fluids having an intermediate buffer fluid chamber (26) into which a relatively inert gas, such as nitrogen, is provided for use as a buffer fluid. The nitrogen gas is maintained at a pressure which exceeds the process fluid pressure by at least 10 p.s.i. and, in a preferred embodiment, spiral pumping grooves (44,74) in the mating rings (40,60) of each of the seals (22,24) are shaped and dimensioned to pump the nitrogen buffer gas through the first seal (22) from the intermediate chamber (26) into the process fluid chamber (12) and through the second seal (24) from the intermediate chamber (26) into the environment external to the housing (12) and sealing area, thereby avoiding the escape of the process fluid into the intermediate buffer chamber (26) and to the atmosphere. Contamination of the process fluid by the buffer gas may be tolerated. The buffer gas may be any relatively inert gas, a gas which is non-hazardous to the environment and also is compatible with the process fluid used; appropriate examples are nitrogen, carbon dioxide, air or one of the noble gases. The seal (10) can be used to seal a process fluid which is either a liquid or a gas. <IMAGE>

In other words, the edge is released by opening the curtain.
Patent AU-4836799-A (AU)
Title: Digital watermarks and methods for security documents
Inventor: RHOADS GEOFFREY B
IPC: G06V30/40
Filed: 1999-06-24
Abstract: Security documents (e.g. passports, currency, event tickets, and the like) are encoded to convey machine-readable multi-bit binary information (e.g. digital watermark), usually in a manner not alerting human viewers that such information is present. The documents can be provided with overt or subliminal calibration patterns. When a document incorporating such a pattern is scanned (e.g. by a photocopier), the pattern facilitates detection of the encoded information notwithstanding possible sealing or rotation of the scan data. The calibration pattern can serve as a carrier for the watermark information, or the watermark can be encoded independently. In one embodiment, the watermark and the calibration pattern are formed on the document by an intaglio process, with or without ink. A photocopier responsive to such markings can take predetermined action if reproduction of a security document is attempted. A passport processing station responsive to such markings can use the decoded binary data to access a database having information concerning the passport holder. Some such apparatuses detect both the watermark data and the presence of a visible structure characteristic of a security document (e.g., a printed seal of the document's issuer). <IMAGE>
