Abstract From the Canadian patent

A method of forming a moulded product of settable resin reinforce with fibres comprising drawing a bundle of tows of reinforcing fibres through a bath of fluid but settable resin mix and between die cavities of an open die, closing the die to conform the envelope shape of the tows to the shapes of surfaces which define cavities in the die; characterised by pinching the tows of the bundle at least at one end of the die sufficiently to inhibit expulsion of resin from that said end, and subjecting said tows to a high pressure while the resin sets.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed October 30, 1992 and granted July 9, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 30, 2012.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 30, 2014.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
