Abstract From the Canadian patent

A box-like housing for an electronics apparatus is provided having superior effects for preventing problems caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD). The wall of the housing is formed by a sandwiched plate consisting of the innermost layer of high electro-conductive material such as a steel plate the, middle layer of electro-insulating material such as plastic and the outermost layer of low electro-conductive material having much higher resistance compared with the innermost layer such as a carbon-containing paint coating. The innermost layer and the outermost layer are frame-grounded through a common earth line.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed October 10, 1991 and granted August 12, 1997. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 10, 2011.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 10, 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.
