Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
The sonic or ultrasonic transducer includes a circular piezo-ceramic disk capable of generating radial oscillations and a metal ring, which embraces in tight close fitting relationship the circumferential surface area of the disk to form a radial oscillator in conjunction with the disk. The sonic or ultrasonic transducer formed in this manner has an emission surface corresponding to the entire surface area of the piezo-ceramic disk and metal ring, and displays a radial resonant frequency which is lower than that of the piezo-ceramic disk.

Why it's free to use
- Filed September 24, 1993 and granted April 28, 1998. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended September 24, 2013.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 24, 2015.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
