Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
This hydraulic actuator has a drive volume (11) pressurized by extreme-pressure oil. The oil pressure is converted into a valve movement by a drive piston (10). A spring element acts upon the drive piston (10) in a manner opposing the oil pressure. The actuator is to be constructed such that extreme-pressure oil escaping from the drive volume (11) cannot cause any consequential damage. This is achieved in that the drive volume (11) is completely surrounded by a safety volume (3, 7) filled with low-pressure oil.

Why it's free to use
- Filed July 18, 1990 and granted March 28, 2000. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended July 18, 2010.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by July 18, 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.
