Abstract From the Canadian patent

The invention relates to an electrostatic separating device in the form of a free-fall separator for sorting triboelectrically charged mixtures of materials.A separate voltage source (9a 9b,) is attached in such a manner to each of the electrodes forming a pair of electrodes that one of these sources supplies a positive voltage in relation to the earth potential and the other supplies a negative voltage in relation to the earth potential and as a result the potential difference relative to earth is zero in the middle of the separator.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed November 17, 1997 and granted April 3, 2001. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended November 17, 2017.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by November 17, 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.
