Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
Modular roll apparatus particularly suitable for conveying hot material such as a sheet of steel being processed. Each roll has its own individual water bath and drive mechanism. A water trough isolates the bath from the bearings and drive mechanism for the roll and bathes the underside of the roll to cool it. The entire modular unit can be removed from its operating position and replaced by a similar such unit. A conveyor containing a multiplicity of such units is suitable for conveying hot sheet steel or other hot material in a processing mill.

Why it's free to use
- Filed November 2, 1994 and granted December 21, 1999. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended November 2, 2014.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by November 2, 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.
