Abstract From the Canadian patent

An access control system for preventing access to underlying fasteners, and otherwise preventing tampering with the underlying control panel. A base plate is affixed to a base that is fastened to the underlying structure with standard fasteners. A cover plate is slidably disposed over the base plate and includes a key operated cylinder plug. The cylinder plug is inserted through the cover plate, base plate and into a receiving aperture in the base. A locking mechanism within the cylinder plug engages the base, and prevents the sliding disposition of the cover plate from the base plate.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed December 17, 1997 and granted August 13, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended December 17, 2017.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by December 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.
