Abstract From the Canadian patent

Ends of heat transfer plates (S1, S2), is formed by bending foldable materials in a zigzag shape along bend lines (L1 L2), are cut in an inverted V-shape, and flange sections (26) formed by bending vertex parts of the inverted Vshape portions are superposed one over another and brazed in a planar contact state, thereby to form combustion gas passage inlets (11) and air passage outlets (16) along the two sides of the V-shape portions. Compared with brazing of separate flange members onto the cut faces of the vertex parts of the V-shape portions, this fabrication not only dispenses with precise finishing of the cut faces, but also serves to increase the brazing strength.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed January 23, 1998 and granted October 21, 2003. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended January 23, 2018.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by January 23, 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.
