Abstract From the Canadian patent

The apparatus has a plurality of carrying elements (20) which are arranged at a distance one behind the other on a drawing member (14) driven in, the circulating direction (U). The longitudinal direction (L) of the carrying elements (20) extends at an acute angle (.alpha.) with respect to the circulating direction. At the discharge locations (36) feed, devices (12) discharge a sheet-like product to each carrying element (20) which is moved past said discharge locations. While having a considerable processing capacity and a relatively low circulating speed, the apparatus requires only a modest amount of space.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed October 28, 1996 and granted June 1, 1999. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 28, 2016.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 28, 2018.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
