In Innova/PureWater Inc. v. Safari Water Filtration Sys. Inc., 381 F.3d 1111, 1117–20 (Fed. Cir. 2004), the court noted that the phrase “operatively connected” is “a general descriptive claim term frequently used in patent drafting to reflect a functional relationship between claimed components,” that is, the term “means the claimed components must be connected in a way to perform a designated function.”
