Patent Number 7,638,962 Issues - Hatch Cover Manager to Michael Cardwell. The Hatch Cover Manager project is a good example of a successful product conceived by an inventor working within his chosen industry. Mike Cardwell has extensive experience in roof systems and roof safety equipment that he provides to customers through his company, Roof Tech Inc. His expertise alerted him to some serious defects in the state of the art, defects he set out to address with his inventive Hatch Cover Manager. Sabre helped Mike reduce the invention to practice with a 3D solid model incorporating an array of elements and features. We filed an early provisional application to protect his rights during development, then followed with a non-provisional application. Prosecution was complicated by the need to educate examiners to the subtleties of the roof hatch functions, but in the end a broad set of claims were allowed. Roof Tech is currently marketing the Hatch Cover Manager, and Mike is working on his next concept.

Patent Number 7,597,125 Issues - Fresh Dispense Cleaning Product to Levi Deaton. Levi Deaton's extremely well-developed and documented disclosure for the Fresh-Dispense gave us a great leg-up when it came to writing this application. We expect to see the Fresh-Dispense available in the U.S. very soon, as it's a terrific product that solves a common problem in an innovative manner.

Patent Number 7,531,731 Issues - Tremolo-Limiter to Don Longo & David Bremer. The Tremolo-Limiter arose from an idea of Mr. Longo's for means to preserve the playability of electric guitars with tremolo bars in the event of a broken string. Mr. Longo approached Sabre Technical Services Corp. for assistance in designing an apparatus to provide the functionality he envisioned. From that co-operative effort, the Tremolo-Limiter was born. Patent preparation was also by Sabre, with all rights to the invention assigned to Mr. Longo. The Tremolo-Limiter is currently being prepared for production and commercial launch

Patent Number 7,429,149 Issues - Sleeved Segmented Foundation Support Product to Matt Price and Rick Garoutte. This is one of several applications that we filed before the landmark Supreme Court decision KSR v. Teleflex, and then prosecuted after the decision changed the patentability landscape regarding obviousness. Sabre participated in multiple interviews with the examiner and was ultimately successful in arguing the inventiveness of this product.

It is a great pleasure to announce Sabre's acquisition of Don Moyer's ( www.donmoyer.com ) patent practice as well as the services of Don himself. Don is joining Sabre as a Senior Consultant and will be contributing his considerable expertise to both new and ongoing projects.
Don is well known for his work as founder of the Inventor's Council in Chicago, his long career as a patent agent, and his research and academic work as a PhD physicist Don's bio.
Most recently he is working with Alzheimers Spoken Here, a not-for-profit advocacy organization promoting, among other things, early diagnosis and treatment for Alzheimer's patients.
Don brings to Sabre an in-depth knowledge of patent drafting and prosecution, a wide-ranging and inventive approach to design, and a solid grounding in science and engineering principles. We are very fortunate to have him as one of our principal staff members.
