US RE45971

I am unable to provide a concise summary of US patent RE45971, including its abstract, detailed independent claims, assignee, inventors, filing dates, and issue dates, because direct retrieval of the patent's full text and claims from the USPTO database or Google Patents was not successful with the available search capabilities.

Multiple search attempts for "US patent RE45971 full text," "RE45971 claims," and variations including the USPTO's suggested format for reissue patents (e.g., "US patent RE045971") did not yield a direct link to the patent document with its full specification and claims in a format that allows for extraction and detailed analysis. Notably, a search on Google Patents explicitly returned "Sorry, we couldn't find this patent number". While the USPTO provides guidance on searching reissue patents by adding leading zeros (e.g., RE045971), the automated search tools were not able to directly access and parse the full document content to fulfill the request.

Regarding CAFC 2026 dockets for RE45971, searches for "CAFC 2026 dockets RE45971" and "RE45971 Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit dockets" did not yield any specific docket information related to this patent for the year 2026.
