The inner shell forms at its lower edge and on the outside thereof an upwardly-opening trough in which the insert is inserted. The free edge of the trough joins with the lower edge of the cuter shell above the bottom of the trough. The two shells, together with the insert form, ventilation openings which are lined by portions of the two shells.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed May 31, 1991 and granted August 26, 1997. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended May 31, 2011.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by May 31, 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.
