Abstract From the Canadian patent

A differential housing support assembly includes a pivot pin which projects from an end of the housing and is pivotally received in an annual ring of a support bracket which is bolted to a vehicle frame member. A cover plate is bolted to an end fact of the ring and includes a central portion which is directly engageable with an end of the pivot pin. Free play between the pivot pin and the cover plate is adjusted by controlling the number of annular shims placed between the annular ring and the cover plate.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed July 9, 1990 and granted March 1, 1994. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended July 9, 2010.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by July 9, 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.
