Intirion's MicroFridge Technology Receives USPTO Validation
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Recently, the United States Patent and Trademark Office's Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) affirmed the patentability of Intirion's groundbreaking MicroFridge combination appliance. The PTAB confirmed U.S. Patent No. 11,674,745 in full, and also validated the claims of U.S. Patent No. 11,674,746, which pertain to Intirion's integration of a microwave and refrigerator unit featuring an advanced smoke sensor and intelligent power management technology.
Significance of the PTAB Decision
This affirmation came after College Products initiated Post-Grant Review proceedings challenging both patents. However, the PTAB found these challenges unpersuasive regarding the revolutionary design by Intirion concerning its combination microwave and refrigerator, equipped with a smoke sensor and patented power management technology.
