Abstract From the Canadian patent

A school desk has legs adapted to be lengthened for raising the desk. The legs are provided with a sleeve adapted to fittingly slide on the legs. The legs have a transversal perforation, and the sleeves have a set of vertically disposed holes. A screw and nut combination is used to lock the sleeves on the legs at selected vertical positions. The sleeves are vertically grooved to facilitate their sliding action and to allow the screw and nut combination to positively lock the sleeves on the legs.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed May 7, 1991 and granted October 25, 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.
