“In the most specific sense, ‘claim differentiation’ refers to the presumption that an independent claim should not be construed as requiring a limitation added by a dependent claim.” Liebel-Flarsheim Company v. Medrad, Inc., 358 F.3d 898 (Fed. Cir. 2004). In view of § 112(d) and the doctrine of claim differentiation, we do not construe claim 21 to require a transition region around the entire perimeter of the mating region. However, that begs the question: Around how much of the perimeter does claim 21 require the transition region to extend? The answer to that question is unknown to us and likewise would be to a person of ordinary skill in the art reading the claim in view of the Specification.
