  • Patent number: 7900280
    Abstract: Goggles are provided having a lens cup with a seal portion extending around its peripheral rear edge. The seal portion is adapted to seal against the face of a wearer of the goggles via a face contact surface. The face contact surface is preformed to follow substantially the contours of the wearer's face around the wearer's eye socket, so that little force between the seal portion and the wearer's face is required to achieve sealing. The face contact surface may be preformed in accordance with the average wearer from a demographic group or preformed bespoke for the wearer.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20050064151
    Abstract: A security document including layers of security coatings disposed on a substrate. The coating layers include a first security coating disposed on the substrate and a second security coating disposed on the first security coating. One of the security coatings is a solvent-sensitive coating, while the other is an abrasion-sensitive coating. Together, these coatings ensure that attempts at tampering with the document produce notorious indicia of such tampering. The security document is particularly adapted for ink jet printing. Additional security features may include thermochromic ink, bar codes, and pantographic warnings, as well as another solvent-sensitive security coating that is distinct from the earlier-described solvent-sensitive coating. By way of example, this second solvent-sensitive coating could be configured to be sensitive to particular forms of tampering, such as where solutions containing phosphoric acid are used to tamper with the document.
