Abstract From the Canadian patent

An elongate hollow tubular assembly mounts a temperature sensing element in a reservoir to determine the temperature of a liquid in the reservoir. The tubular assembly includes an inner tubular member constructed of a thin, light-weight, electrically insulating and thermally conducting material, an intermediate tubular member constructed of a thin, heat-sealable dielectric, material, having an end thereof which extends into the reservoir heat-sealed; and an outer tubular member constructed of a moldable, water-impervious heat-resistant and durable material. A sealing arrangement is provided for sealing an end of the outer tubular member which extends into the reservoir.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed May 7, 1991 and granted December 13, 1994. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended May 7, 2011.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by May 7, 2013.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
