It's an "all solid, reverse hybrid". As far as I can tell, there is only one independent claim and the document is at the published application phase. I'm not sure if the examiner will allow the independent claim as there are a number of published examples of prior art reduced to practice and disclosed.

There is some prior art in the field. US 3429265 A from 1960 for example. Also CA 2367192 A1 from 2002 by inventors Anthony J. Cesaroni, Michael J. Dennett, Jeroen Louwers There seems to be a distinct lack of reference to Prior Art in modern patents. Have they dropped that criteria so I can patent the wheel now? Cheers, Burnsie.
