Abstract From the Canadian patent

An inverter for supplying electrical energy from a DC supply to a load, includes a transformer having a primary winding circuit coupled to the DC supply, and a secondary winding circuit coupled to the load. The primary winding circuit includes a first switch for interrupting the DC supply causing energy to be stored in the transformer, and the secondary winding circuit includes a second, unidirectional switch to produce an output of one sign when closed. The primary winding circuit further includes an electrical device effective to return energy to the DC supply when the first and second switches are open.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed April 12, 1990 and granted June 27, 2000. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended April 12, 2010.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 12, 2012.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
