Shanghai United Imaging Healthcare Co., Ltd. has 69 pending office actions in Communications. The matters span 63 distinct examiners and 35 distinct art units, indicating broad examiner distribution with multiple matters assigned within some technical units.
GUNBERG, EDWIN C is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. The limited concentration means that portfolio-wide coordination is more important than focusing on one examiner. Art-unit monitoring can help organize recurring communications issues across otherwise distributed examination assignments.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 11 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 11 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 only | 3 (5%) |
| §101 + other | 5 (8%) |
| §103 only | 22 (33%) |
| §102 only | 4 (6%) |
| §112 only | 2 (3%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (3%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 27 (41%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (2%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
Manual office-action response work runs about 10 hours per case. The time-saved bands below show what IP Author's prosecution pipeline typically delivers — a conservative 20% on the low end, 35% in the middle, 50% on the high end.
