How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• finding that an element should not be read into a claim in which “the cam feature was explicitly included as an element in numerous claims, but not in the claim in suit”
• discussing cases limiting claim language because feature “described as essential to the invention” but declining to do so when the specification “does not state that the cam is the actual invention it- self”
• noting general presumption that each claim 12 has a different scope and doctrine of claim differentiation is “especially strong when the limitation 13 in dispute is the only meaningful difference between an independent and dependent claim”
• “A patent applicant is not required to describe in the specification every conceivable and possible future embodiment of his invention.”
• claim differentiation “is especially strong when the limitation in dispute is the only meaningful difference between an independent and dependent claim, and one party is urging that the limitation in the dependent claim should be read into the independent claim”
• “[T]his is not a case || in which a feature was described in the written description as critical but was never 11 || explicitly listed in the claim language, suggesting that the relevant structure in the claims || should be narrowly construed as having that feature.”
