Abstract From the Canadian patent

A resistive current limiter takes the form of a hollow cylinder and is composed of high-temperature superconducting material. In this connection the high-, temperature superconducting material may be a polynary oxide. To produce said resistive current limiter a homogeneous, melt is prepared from an oxide mixture suitable for, forming high-temperature superconductors in a specified, stoichiometry and said melt is allowed to run at, temperatures above 900°C, into a casting zone which rotates about its horizontal axis. The molding solidified as a cylinder, is removed from the casting zone. The cylinder is sawn so as to produce a gap extending parallel to its axis. Furthermore a, multiplicity …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed May 27, 1992 and granted January 21, 1997. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended May 27, 2012.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by May 27, 2014.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
