Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
An upper control arm for a vehicle suspension system having a modulus section of hollow construction for reduced weight. The modulus section of the control arm is of a stamped and welded construction thereby eliminating material weight while reducing the cost of manufacturing. The modulus section has a substantially triangular configuration with a reinforced rim flange along the high compression stress area of the control arm elbow. The reinforced rim flange improves the strength of the control arm without sacrificing the weight reduction provided by the hollow construction.

Why it's free to use
- Filed December 9, 1992. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended December 9, 2012.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by December 9, 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.
