|---|---|---|---|
| Base term, 20 years from filing | Clock starts Sep 11, 2015, when the earliest non-provisional application in its chain was filed (this one was filed Mar 22, 2021); a parent in its chain could not be resolved (the next row) | Sep 11, 2035 | High confidence |
| Continuity chain | A parent in the chain could not be resolved | dated from this application's own claim | Medium confidence |

| Terminal disclaimer cap | Disclaimer resolved from the filed document (refs US 11,079,396, US 11,959,927) | resolves to May 19, 2039, no earlier than this term, so no change | Medium confidence |
| Patent term extension | None on file | no change | High confidence |

Maintenance fee events come from USPTO's own fee records. Its fee lookup asks for the patent number and the application number.
Not on this page: the patent's family, its recorded assignments and its citation count. USPTO's assignment records, linked above, list every recorded assignment.
Every date shows its work: the base term, any term adjustment or extension, any disclaimer cap, and the maintenance fee record, each with a confidence tier. How this record was built
Computed patent terms end on the dates shown. Related patents and pending applications may cover overlapping subject matter.
In force means the term is running and no lapse is on record. It is not a finding that the patent is valid.
