Extensions

US patent 9532164, titled "Mashing mapping content displayed on mobile devices," was issued on December 27, 2016, from an application filed on August 3, 2013.

Here's a breakdown of its patent term and related applications:

Patent Term Adjustments (PTA)

Patent Term Adjustment (PTA) adds time to a patent's 20-year term to compensate for certain delays caused by the USPTO during prosecution. Common delays include the USPTO not issuing an office action within 14 months of filing, not responding to an applicant's reply within four months, or not issuing the patent within 36 months of filing.

To determine the exact PTA for US9532164, direct access to the patent's Image File Wrapper (IFW) or the patent grant document itself would be necessary, as the PTA calculation is typically noted on the front page of the issued patent. This information is not explicitly provided in the Google Patents overview or the search results.

Patent Term Extensions (PTE)

Patent Term Extension (PTE) is a separate mechanism primarily for patents claiming human drug products, medical devices, food additives, or color additives, to compensate for time lost during regulatory review by the FDA. PTEs are capped at a maximum of five years, and the total patent life with an extension cannot exceed 14 years from the date of FDA approval.

Given that US patent 9532164 relates to "mashing mapping content displayed on mobile devices," it is highly unlikely to be eligible for Patent Term Extension (PTE), as it does not appear to cover a product subject to FDA regulatory review.

Continuation and Divisional Applications

The Google Patents page for US9532164 lists the following related applications:

• US13/987,520: This is the application number for US9532164 itself, filed on August 3, 2013.

The patent explicitly states it claims priority to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/974,258 filed Oct. 12, 2007. Therefore, US 2009/0100342 A1, which is the publication of this earlier application, is the direct parent.

Related Family Members

Based on the information, the patent family includes:

• US 2009/0100342 A1 (Parent Application): Titled "Mashing mapping content displayed on mobile devices," filed October 12, 2007.
• US 2015/0038161 A1: An "other version" or related publication of the application leading to US9532164.

Projected Expiration Date

The term of a U.S. patent (other than a design patent) generally begins on the date the patent issues and ends 20 years from the earliest filing date for which a benefit is claimed under 35 U.S.C. §§ 120, 121, or 365(c).

US patent 9532164 claims priority to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/974,258 filed October 12, 2007. Therefore, the base 20-year patent term would expire on October 12, 2027.

However, the Google Patents page explicitly states the "Adjusted expiration" date as January 30, 2029. This indicates that there has been a Patent Term Adjustment (PTA) applied to the patent, extending its life beyond the standard 20 years from the earliest priority date. Without accessing the specific PTA calculation from the USPTO, the reason for this adjustment cannot be detailed, but it accounts for USPTO delays during prosecution.

Therefore, the projected expiration date for US patent 9532164 is January 30, 2029.
