Abstract From the Canadian patent

A liquid feeding apparatus quantitatively feeds a liquid by pressing and clogging an elastic tube between a press roller and an arc-shaped guide portion through rotational motion of the press roller. The liquid feeding apparatus includes a main unit in which the press roller is provided and a liquid cassette which accommodates a liquid cartridge. One end of the elastic tube is connected to a reservoir for the liquid to be fed and the other end is connected to a check valve. The liquid cassette is removably fitted to the liquid feeding apparatus so that the elastic tube is subject to pressing action of the press roller.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed March 26, 1997 and granted September 4, 2001. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended March 26, 2017.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by March 26, 2019.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
