’487 patent. To conserve resources, the
Commission has determined to take no
position on infringement and validity as
it pertains to the ’487 patent. Regarding
the ’453 patent, the Commission has
determined that the prior art REMstar
device anticipates the asserted claims of
the ’453 patent under the Commission’s
construction of the claim limitation ‘‘a
retaining mechanism configured to
secure the connecting structure to the
CPAP apparatus’’ to mean ‘‘one or more
parts for holding in place the CPAP
apparatus that is configured to attach
the connecting structure to the CPAP
apparatus.’’ Given that Commission’s
construction is broader than the ALJ’s
construction, the Commission has
determined to affirm the ALJ’s
infringement and domestic industry,
technical prong, findings. With respect
to domestic industry the Commission
has determined to vacate the ID’s
findings and conclusion that ResMed
established a domestic industry under
19 U.S.C. 1337(a)(3)(C).
Having found a violation of section
337 in this investigation, the
Commission has determined that the
appropriate form of relief is: (1) A
limited exclusion order prohibiting the
unlicensed entry of sleep-disordered
breathing treatment systems and
components thereof that infringe one or
more of claims 1, 9, 32, 89, and 92 of
the ’527 patent; claims 19, 21, 29, 32,
and 36 of the ’392 patent; claims 32, 33,
34, and 53 of the ’267 patent; claims 30,
37, and 38 of the ’060 patent; and claims
1, 3, 5, 11, 28, 30, 31, and 56 of the ’883
patent that are manufactured by, or on
behalf of, or are imported by or on
behalf of BMC Medical Co., Ltd., 3B
Medical, Inc., or 3B Products L.L.C. or
any of their affiliated companies,
parents, subsidiaries, agents, or other
related business entities, or their
successors or assigns, except for service
and replacement parts for customers
that purchased their covered products
prior to the date the exclusion order
becomes final; and (2) cease and desist
orders prohibiting domestic respondents
BMC Medical Co., Ltd., 3B Medical, Inc.
from conducting any of the following
activities in the United States:
Importing, selling, marketing,
advertising, distributing, transferring
(except for exportation), and soliciting
U.S. agents or distributors for, sleepdisordered breathing treatment systems
and components thereof covered by
claims 1, 9, 32, 89, and 92 of the ’527
patent; claims 19, 21, 29, 32, and 36 of
the ’392 patent; claims 32, 33, 34, and
53 of the ’267 patent; claims 30, 37, and
38 of the ’060 patent; and claims 1, 3,
5, 11, 28, 30, 31, and 56 of the ’883
VerDate Sep<11>2014

patent. The proposed cease and desist
orders include the following
exemptions: (1) If in a written
instrument, the owner of the patents
authorizes or licenses such specific
conduct, or such specific conduct is
related to the importation or same of
covered products by or for the United
States; or (2) conduct limited to the
provision of service and replacement
parts for customers that purchased their
covered products prior to the date this
Order becomes final within the meaning
of 19 U.S.C. 1337(j)(4).
The Commission has also determined
that the public interest factors
enumerated in section 337(d) and (f) (19
U.S.C. 1337(d) and (f)) do not preclude
issuance of the limited exclusion order
or cease and desist orders. Finally, the
Commission has determined that a bond
in the amount of 65 percent of entered
value is required to permit temporary
importation during the period of
Presidential review (19 U.S.C. 1337(j))
of sleep-disordered breathing treatment
systems and components thereof that
are subject to the limited exclusion
order. The Commission’s orders and
opinion were delivered to the President
and to the United States Trade
Representative on the day of their
issuance.
The authority for the Commission’s
determination is contained in section
337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and in Part
210 of the Commission’s Rules of
Practice and Procedure (19 CFR part
210).
By order of the Commission.
Issued: December 23, 2014.
Jennifer Rohrbach,
Supervisory Attorney.
