Frame Construction

Patent No. EP1840315 (titled "Frame Construction") was filed by Schco on Mar 16, 2007. The application was issued on Feb 15, 2023.

Patent oppositions filed by competitors challenge the validity of a granted patent. These oppositions are typically based on claims of prior art, lack of novelty, or non-obviousness. They are a key part of the process for determining a patent's strength and enforceability.
