Appeal No. 2000-1476
Application 08/801,918
Figure 1 in the reference depicts the display unit 7 and the
CPU 8 as being separate from the cab control unit 1, and
columns 5 and 6 in the reference describe the display unit as
being used to display a set-up screen for pre-selecting and
downloading certain variables into the CPU and a run-time
screen for showing various operating parameters.
As conceded by the examiner (see page 2 in the final
rejection and page 3 in the answer), Skantar does not respond
to the limitations in independent claims 1, 16 and 22
requiring the display (or display means) to instantly display
the desired braking action (or brake action pressure) as a
function of the determined position of the brake operator (or
brake operator means).
As persuasively argued by the appellants (see pages 7 and
10 in the main brief ), Skantar also fails to respond to the
limitations in claims 1 and 16 requiring the display (or
display means) and the electronic controller (or controller
means) to be in or on the discrete housing (or housing means)
which mounts the brake operator (or brake operator means).
