Abstract From the Canadian patent

A wheel harness for anchoring a wheel of a motor vehicle with respect to the floor of a transportation vehicle comprises an elongated strap which has an anchor at each end and a wheel chock which is slidably mounted on the strap. The wheel chock can be releaseably secured to the floor in close proximity to a wheel in use to form a chock which will bear against the wheel to prevent movement of the wheel. A length adjustment device is provided for adjusting effective length of the strap to increase or decrease the effective length of the strap to tighten or release the harness with respect to the wheel in use.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed December 1, 1989 and granted July 6, 1993. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended December 1, 2009.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by December 1, 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.
