How later courts describe this case
- "Even where the ordinary meaning of the claim is clear, it is well-established that `the prosecution history limits the interpretation of claim terms so as to exclude any interpretation that was disclaimed during prosecution.'"
- “The public notice function of patents requires that a patentee be prevented from expressly stating during prosecution that the claims do not cover a particular device and then later suing for infringement by that same device.”
