Abstract From the Canadian patent

A slide surface construction which is an inorganic skin film formed of an aggregate of Fe crystals having a body-centered cubic structure. The aggregate includes a large number of (222) oriented Fe crystals with their (222) planes (by Miller indices) oriented toward a slide surface. At least some of these (222) oriented Fe crystals are hexagonal pyramid-shaped Fe crystals having six ridge lines. These Fe crystals having six ridge lines ensure that the oil retention of the slide surface construction can be improved, and a slide load acting on the slide surface can be finely divided.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed April 29, 1994 and granted June 27, 2000. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended April 29, 2014.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 29, 2016.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
