pertinent and analogous arts regardless of where classified.
Other pertinent areas where the seal of claims 17 through 32
on appeal could reasonably be found may be known to the
examiner and should also be considered. In conducting any
further search of the prior art, the examiner should be
cognizant of the fact that claim 17 requires a seal including
a first
section having a first hardness and a second section
“integrally molded with said first section” having a second
hardness less than said first hardness.
