Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
In construction of a tool chuck in which manual rotation of an outer operation sleeve causes concurrent rotation of an inner screw ring to move clamping jaws in a chuck body following the principle of screw feeding, a solid lubrication coating layer is interposed between the screw ring and the chuck body so as to minimize friction between the two elements during their relative rotation for clamping a tool via the jaws thereby effectively, utilizing input torque from the operation sleeve for clamping operation. The solid lubrication coating layer may be applied either to a washer or directly to the screw ring.

Why it's free to use
- Filed November 4, 1992 and granted October 14, 1997. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended November 4, 2012.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by November 4, 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.
