Shenzhen Mindray Scientific Co. Ltd. currently has 3 pending office actions in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These 3 actions are spread across 3 distinct examiners and 3 distinct art units. This structure shows a complete lack of overlap in the personnel or the administrative units handling the company's current active patent applications, indicating a highly diversified prosecution landscape.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is KOO, BENJAMIN K, who is currently managing 1 pending office action. Since there are 3 pending office actions in total and 3 distinct examiners, each examiner is responsible for exactly 1 matter. This distribution ensures that no single examiner has a larger influence over the portfolio than the others. The workload is perfectly balanced among the assigned officials.
The use of 3 distinct art units indicates that the 3 pending office actions likely involve different technical sub-specialties within Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. For practitioners, this means navigating three different sets of examiner perspectives and art unit environments. The busiest examiner pending count of 1 confirms that the active cases are not concentrated under any single individual.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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 + other | 1 (33%) |
| §103 only | 1 (33%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (33%) |
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.
