Abstract From the Canadian patent

A roof vent comprises two parts, a cover and a conduit. The conduit with a pipeline already attached, can be easily connected to the cover after the cover has been installed on a roof. The conduit will plug into the cover making installation easy. The vent includes a channel or moat which surrounds the outlet of the conduit. Thus if during extreme weather conditions, moisture passes into the cover from outside through its opening and if it gets past the door flap it will be trapped in the channel.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed August 13, 1999 and granted September 16, 2003. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended August 13, 2019.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by August 13, 2021.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
