Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
Traffic channeling device includes a deformable plastic drum and a rubber collar insertable over the drum to act as ballast for the drum. The rubber collar comprises a bead portion and an integral side wall portion of a recycled truck tire. When the rubber collar is inserted over the drum, the rubber collar gives the drum a relatively low center of gravity and grips the ground over a relatively large surface area to resist tipping of the drum and eliminate walking of the drum on the ground.

Why it's free to use
- Filed November 26, 1992 and granted July 26, 1994. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended November 26, 2012.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by November 26, 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.
