Abstract From the Canadian patent

A suspension mechanism for mounting a combustion chamber fan motor in a combustion powered hand tool including a flexible rubber web secured between a motor retaining ring and a cylinder head mounting bracket. The suspension mechanism is tuned for at least one of reducing the axial acceleration of the motor and dampening the oscillation of the motor relative to the tool. The web includes concentric grooves on its upper and lower surface and a number of bores on the upper surface to provide the requisite flexibility depending on the characteristics of the tool.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed November 18, 1998 and granted April 2, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended November 18, 2018.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by November 18, 2020.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
