To accurately detail patent term adjustments (PTA), patent term extensions (PTE), continuation applications, divisional applications, related family members, and the projected expiration date for US patent 11490647, direct access to the official USPTO Public Patent Application Information Retrieval (PAIR) system or Patent Center is typically required. The provided Google Patents text offers some information, but granular details like PTA calculations are not explicitly laid out.

Here's what can be extracted and inferred from the provided patent text and general patent law, along with what would require direct USPTO system access:

US Patent 11490647:

  • Filing Date: January 17, 2020 [cite: The provided patent text]
  • Issue Date: November 8, 2022 [cite: The provided patent text]
  • Stated Expiration Date: July 1, 2041 [cite: The provided patent text] (This date already accounts for any adjustments.)

Patent Term Adjustments (PTA):

  • The provided Google Patents document lists an expiration date of "Active, expires 2041-07-01" [cite: The provided patent text]. This date is significantly later than the standard 20 years from the filing date (January 17, 2020), which would be January 17, 2040. This difference of approximately one year and five months strongly suggests that Patent Term Adjustment (PTA) has been granted to US11490647 to compensate for administrative delays during prosecution by the USPTO.
  • Specific PTA Calculation: The exact calculation of PTA is not provided in the Google Patents document and would require accessing the patent's file history on the USPTO Patent Center.

Patent Term Extensions (PTE):

  • There is no indication in the provided patent text or associated legal status details that US11490647 has been granted a Patent Term Extension (PTE). PTE is typically granted to compensate for delays in obtaining regulatory approval for certain patented products, like pharmaceuticals.

Continuation Applications:

  • The patent text indicates that the "Current application claims a priority to the U.S. Provisional Patent application Ser. No. 62/934,101 filed on Nov. 12, 2019." [cite: The provided patent text]
  • It also states "Priority to US16/746,689" and "Priority to US17/037,446" [cite: The provided patent text]. US16/746,689 is the application number for US11490647. US17/037,446 is associated with US11534031B2 ("Sandwich crimper") [cite: The provided patent text]. This indicates US11490647 is related to US11534031B2 through a shared priority or continuation claim.
  • Continuation-in-Part: The "Related Child Applications" section mentions US29/738,591 (USD962727S1) and US17/037,446 (US11534031B2) as Continuation-In-Part applications, both claiming priority from the same 2019-11-12 date [cite: The provided patent text].

Divisional Applications:

  • The provided patent text does not explicitly list any "divisional applications" for US11490647. However, the term "family members" (discussed below) often includes divisional applications.

Related Family Members:
Based on the "Priority Applications" and "Other versions" sections in the Google Patents document, the following related family members are identified:

  • US20210137151A1: This is a publication of the current application (US16/746,689) [cite: The provided patent text].
  • US11534031B2: Titled "Sandwich crimper," this patent claims priority from the same date (November 12, 2019) as US11490647 through US17/037,446 [cite: The provided patent text].
  • USD962727S1: Titled "Sandwich crimper," this is a design patent that claims priority from the same date (November 12, 2019) through US29/738,591 [cite: The provided patent text]. This is listed as a Continuation-In-Part of the priority application.
  • US201962934101P: This is the U.S. Provisional Patent application filed on Nov. 12, 2019, from which US11490647 claims priority [cite: The provided patent text].

Projected Expiration Date:

  • The Google Patents document explicitly states the patent "expires 2041-07-01" [cite: The provided patent text]. This date reflects the 20-year term from the earliest priority date, plus any granted Patent Term Adjustment (PTA).

Summary of Patent Term and Related Applications for US11490647:

  • Patent Term Adjustments (PTA): Likely granted, indicated by the expiration date of July 1, 2041, being significantly later than 20 years from the filing date. The exact PTA period would be detailed in the USPTO file wrapper.
  • Patent Term Extensions (PTE): Not indicated.
  • Continuation Applications: Yes, US11490647 itself is a continuation of US16/746,689 which claims priority from provisional application 62/934,101. It also shares priority with US11534031B2 (via US17/037,446) and USD962727S1 (via US29/738,591), with the latter two being Continuation-In-Part applications.
