In an electronic article surveillance system, quadrature transmitting and receiving antennas are used to improve field distribution. A transmitting antenna arrangement includes first and second adjacent co-planar antenna loops and excitation circuitry for generating respective alternating currents in the first and second loops such that the respective alternating currents are 90 DEG out of phase. In a receiving arrangement, respective signals received from two adjacent co-planar antenna loops are respectively phase-shifted by +45 DEG and -45 DEG , and the resulting phase-shifted signals are summed. A far-field cancelling transmitting antenna arrangement includes four loops operated at phases of 0 DEG , 90 DEG , 180 DEG and 270 DEG respectively. All four loops may be co-planar, with any bucking vertical segments being horizontally displaced from each other. Alternatively, the 0 DEG and 180 DEG loops may also be arranged in a common plane that is close to and parallel with another plane in which the 90 DEG and 270 DEG loops are arranged.

A print media processing apparatus having scanner feed rollers for holding and transporting print media against an image scanner appropriately controls the scanner feed roller position. The scanner feed rollers are opposite the image scanner, which is disposed along a vertical segment of a transportation path along which a check or form is transported. A roller retraction mechanism moves the scanner feed rollers between a closed position in which the rollers press against the scanning surface, and an open position in which the rollers are retracted therefrom. The scanner feed rollers retract to the open position a specific time after scanning ends. By delaying retraction of the rollers in this manner, the present invention solves the problem of a check or other print media, after having been processed and transported to the exit side of the rollers, from slipping down between the rollers and the image scanner into the vertical transportation path because the rollers opened as soon as scanning ends.

Modular vertical floating pipe comprising a plurality of modules, each module formed by (a) two pipe segments of slightly different diameter, the lower segment with the smaller diameter segment joined by a collar with the upper pipe segment and (b) an annular floater of such dimensions that could slide up only in the lower vertical segment. A longer pipe would be formed by inserting one module on top of another, and repeating the operation until all modules have been utilized. The additional weight of a new module will be pushing the section of the pipe already formed down. The difference in diameter between the upper and lower segments will allow the pipe to bend with undersea currents. Appropriate seals will dampen the bending movements and cabling supporting a weight attached to cabling guides will prevent disengagement of the modules. By tying the cable to the top floater, the long pipe could be lowered and disconnected from the platform, allowing the platform and the pipe to ride a threatening storm independently.
