a shell-like structure between the gimbal spring and the
floating head. We also note that Hashimoto fails to teach
placement of an integrated circuit anywhere on this structure.
Upon our close review of Morikawa, we find that
Morikawa teaches on page 7 that Figure 1 is a top view of the
practical example of the main part of the magnetic head device
of Morikawa's invention. Morikawa shows an integrated circuit
5 placed on top of the head suspension 3. We note that
Morikawa does not teach a shell in which the integrated
circuit is placed inside. Furthermore, we note that Morikawa
does not teach the same structure that Hashimoto teaches in
which the head suspension includes a hollow structure.
Upon a close review of the Examiner's answer, we
fail to find that the Examiner has addressed Appellant's
argument as to why one of ordinary skill in the art would have
a reason to place the integrated circuit within the hollow
