`
`I.
`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`Lenovo (United States) Inc. (“Petitioner’’) filed a Petition (Paper1,
`
`“Pet.”) requesting an inter partes review of claims 1-16 and 18-22 of U.S.
`
`Patent No. 8,624,844 B2 (Ex. 1001, “the ’844 patent”). LiTL LLC (“Patent
`
`Owner”) filed a Preliminary Response. Paper 5 (“Prelim. Resp.”).
`
`Wehave authority to determine whetherto institute an inter partes
`
`review. See 35 U.S.C. § 314 (2018); 37 C.F.R. § 42.4(a) (2020). The
`
`standard for institution is set forth in 35 U.S.C. § 314(a), which providesthat
`
`an inter partes review maynotbeinstituted unless “there is a reasonable
`
`likelihood that the petitioner would prevail with respect to at least 1 of the
`
`claims challengedin the petition.” As discussed below, we determinethat
`
`Petitioner does not show a reasonable likelihood of prevailing with respect
`
`to the challenged claims. Accordingly, we denyinstitution of an inter partes
`
`review.

`On April 1, 2014, the Office issued a Certificate of Correction that inserts
`the word “mode” after the word “frame” in claim 1. /d. at Certificate of
`Correction.

`
`Ill. DISCUSSION
`
`A.
`
`Level of Ordinary Skill in the Art
`
`Petitioner contendsthat a person of ordinary skill in the art
`
`(“POSITA”)
`
`least a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical
`would have had at
`Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science, plus
`two to three years of work experience in designing hardware
`and/or software aspects of the User Interface (UI) for portable
`computing devices; the POSITA would also be familiar with
`designs of the user interface employed and displayed by the
`operating system and
`its
`organization of content
`and
`functionality. Alternatively, the POSITA would have received a
`graduate degree such as a Master’s or PhD degree with at least
`one year of work experience related to hardware and/or software
`design aspects of the UI for portable computing devices; the
`POSITA would also be familiar with designs of the user interface
`employed and displayed by the operating system and its
`organization of content and functionality.
`Pet. 15—16 (citing Ex. 1010 § 26).
`
`Patent Owner does not dispute Petitioner’s asserted level of ordinary
`
`skill in the art. See generally Prelim. Resp.
`Wefind, based on the current record, that Petitioner’s contentionis
`reasonable. For purposes ofthis Decision, we adopt the level of ordinary
`skill in the art Petitioner proposes.

`
`Claim Construction
`
`Petitioner proposes a claim construction for “content mode,” as well
`99 66
`
`as several related terms, i.e., “first content mode,”
`
`“second content mode,”
`
`and “mode(s) of content.” Pet. 16-18. We determine we neednot explicitly
`
`construe those terms to determine whetherto institute an inter partes review.
`
`See Nidec Motor Corp. v. Zhongshan Broad Ocean Motor Co., 868 F.3d
`
`1013, 1017 (Fed. Cir. 2017) (“we need only construe terms‘that are in
`
`controversy, and only to the extent necessary to resolve the controversy”
`
`(quoting Vivid Techs., Inc. v. Am. Sci. & Eng’g, Inc., 200 F.3d 795, 803
`
`(Fed. Cir. 1999))).
`
`Wedetermine, however, that construction is necessary for “frame
`
`mode.” Claim 1 recites, among other things, “[a] portable computer
`
`configurable betweena plurality of display modes .
`
`.
`
`. wherein theplurality
`
`of modes includes a frame mode in which the main display componentis
`
`orientated towards the operator, the base contacts a substantially horizontal
`
`surface, and the keyboard faces the substantially horizontal surface.”
`
`Ex. 1001, 17:9-51; see id. at Certificate of Correction. Independent claims
`
`10 and 18 have similar “frame mode” limitations. Jd. at 18:65—-19:2, 20:25-
`
`29. The °844 patent explains that frame modeis “illustrated in FIG. 26.” Id.
`
`at 16:23. Figure 26 is reproduced below.

`

`Keyboard facing down

`
`FIG. 26
`
`Figure 26 and the accompanyingtext characterize frame modeas having the
`keyboard face down on a surface with the screen face up, and the base and
`
`display components forming a non-zero angle 134, similar to easel mode’s
`
`inverted “V.” See id. at 16:6-13.
`
`Frame modeis distinct from “tablet mode,” which the ’844 patent
`
`acknowledges was knowninthe art. See id. at 1:32—55 (citing U.S. Patent
`Nos. 6,771,494 (Ex. 2009) and 6,266,236 (“the ’236 patent”) (Ex. 2010)). In
`
`tablet mode,the display is “rotated and folded against the base.” Jd. at 1:43—
`
`46. Tablet modeis depicted, for example, in the ’236 patent’s Figure 2,
`
`which is reproduced below.

`
`“(T]he specification is always highly relevant to the claim
`
`construction analysis. Usually, it is dispositive; it is the single best guide to
`
`the meaning of a disputed term.” Philips v. AWH Corp., 415 F.3d 1303,
`1315 (Fed. Cir. 2005). Consistent with the ’844 patent’s specification, for
`
`purposesof this Decision, we construe “frame mode”as having the
`keyboard face down on a surface with the screen face up, and the base and
`display components forming a non-zero angle. Frame modeis distinct from
`
`“tablet mode,” where the display is flush against the base.
`

`
`Analysis
`
`Overview ofShimura (Exs. 1003 and 1004)
`1.
`All grounds rely on Shimura. Shimura is a Japanese patent application
`
`publication (Ex. 1003), for which Petitioner provided a certified English
`translation (Ex. 1004). Shimurarelates to a personal computerthat “can
`
`adopt a modesuitable for a user environment centered on a pen input
`operation and a mouseinput operation while retaining a mode which can use
`a keyboard.” Ex. 1004, code (57). Figure 1 of Shimura, reproduced below,
`
`illustrates an example of the personal computer. Jd.

`Patent 8,624,844 B2
`
`As shownin Figure 1, the personal computer includes main part 101
`
`provided with keyboard 104 on the front; cover part 102 provided with
`display 105 on the front; and coupling mechanism 103, which enables the
`opening and closing of computer parts 101 and 102 andis used to couple
`one end of main part 101 and one end of cover part 102 with display 105
`
`such that cover part 102 faces main part 101. /d. Coupling mechanism 103is
`
`structured so that it can also open cover part 102 so that the orientation of
`
`cover part 102 exceeds 180° relative to main part 101. Jd. Figure 4 of
`
`Shimura, reproduced below, showsan inclined view ofthe personal
`
`computer, with main part 101 rotated nearly 360° with respect to cover part
`
`102. Id. J 16-17, Fig.4.

`Patent 8,624,844 B2
`
`Obviousness Analysis
`2.
`Basedonthe present record, Petitioner does not demonstrate a
`
`reasonable likelihood of showing the asserted prior art would have rendered
`
`obvious the subject matter of challenged claims 1-16 and 18-22.
`
`Independentclaims 1, 10, and 18 require a “frame mode in which the main
`
`display componentis oriented towards the operator, the base contacts a
`
`substantially horizontal surface, and the keyboard faces the substantially
`
`horizontal surface.” Ex. 1001, 17:47—51, 18:66—19:2, 20:27—30, Certificate
`
`of Correction. Forall of its asserted grounds, Petitioner relies on Shimura’s
`
`Figure 4 for teaching the claimed “frame mode.” Pet. 57, 87, 102. We agree
`
`with Patent Ownerthat Shimura’s Figure 4 does not disclose or suggest a
`
`frame mode. See Prelim. Resp. 27-32.
`
`Shimura’s Figure 4 (reproduced below,left) depicts the device’s
`
`display folded against the base—i.e., tablet mode—trather than in a frame
`
`mode wherethe base and display components form a non-zero angle similar
`
`to easel mode’s inverted “V,” as depicted in the ’844 patent’s Figure 26
`
`(reproduced below,right).
`[Figure 4}
`@a
`
`103: O6
`
`
`
`
`Keyboard facing down
`into surface
`
`Although, as Petitioner notes, Shimura teachesthat its computer can be
`
`configured to any angle between 0° to 360°, see Pet. 22 n.1 (citing Ex. 1004
`
`FIG. 26
`
`12
`
`HP Inc. - Exhibit 1003 - Page 14
`
`HP Inc. - Exhibit 1003 - Page 14
`
`

`

`IPR2021-00822
`Patent 8,624,844 B2
`
`{7 8, 10, 17), that too does not disclose frame mode. This is so because, as
`
`Patent Owner explains, beyond the required opening angle, frame mode
`
`additionally requires a hinge that “must support the display to preventit
`
`from collapsing into tablet mode.” Prelim. Resp. 31. Petitioner pointsto
`
`nothing in Shimura that would indicate its hinge could support the display in
`
`frame mode. See Pet. 22, 41-42, 46-47, 53, 57, 59, 70. Thus, on the current
`
`record, Petitioner has not made a sufficient showing that the asserted
`
`combinations of Shimura and other references teach or suggest the claimed |
`plurality of modes including a “frame mode”as requiredin all the
`
`challenged claims.
`
`IV. CONCLUSION
`
`For the reasons above, we determine that Petitioner has not
`
`established a reasonable likelihood that it would prevail in showing that at
`least one of the challenged claims is unpatentable.
`
`V. ORDER
`
`In consideration of the foregoing,it is hereby:
`
`ORDEREDthatthe Petition is denied, and we do notinstitute an inter
`
`partes review of any claim of the ’844 patent based on a groundasserted in
`
`the Petition.
