Appeal No. 2000-1634 Page 3
Application No. 09/093,279
BACKGROUND
The appellants' invention relates to a spherical clevis
assembly. A copy of the claims under appeal is set forth in
the appendix to the appellants' brief.
The prior art references of record relied upon by the
examiner in rejecting the appealed claims are:
Conner 2,022,801 Dec. 3,
1935
Pfaar 3,441,299 Apr. 29,
1969
Claims 1, 2 and 4 to 6 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C.
§ 102(b) as being anticipated by Pfaar.
Claim 3 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being
unpatentable over Pfaar in view of Conner.
Rather than reiterate the conflicting viewpoints advanced
by the examiner and the appellants regarding the above-noted
rejections, we make reference to the answer (Paper No. 11,
mailed January 13, 2000) for the examiner's complete reasoning
