Abstract From the Canadian patent

The humidity of the atmosphere of a heat-treating furnace is controlled by the use of superheated steam which is generated by the use of a furnace-heated humidifier to which water is fed through a capillary tube. A secondary gas flow passes through the humidifier and is humidified by the superheated steam. The humidified secondary gas flow then passes to a primary gas flow to be mixed therewith before the, primary gas flow passes to the furnace atmosphere.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed November 6, 1989. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended November 6, 2009.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by November 6, 2011.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
