Appeal No. 97-1025
Application No. 08/183,571
Therefore, claim 20 and claim 38 dependent thereon are not
supported by the originally filed disclosure.
Additionally, we have determined from our review of the
appealed claims and the originally filed disclosure that the
following items are not supported by the originally filed
disclosure: (1) "said control means includes a plurality of
control pads positioned . . . in at least one open at one side
recess" wherein the control means is positioned on the hub member
as recited in claim 3; (2) "said control means include a
plurality of control pads positioned . . . in at least one open
at one side recess" wherein the control means is positioned on
the connecting member as recited in claim 35; and (3) "said
control pads are positioned in at least one open at one side
recess" wherein the control pads are positioned on the spoke
member as recited in claim 43. Therefore, claims 3, 35 and 43
and claims 8, 10, 11, 20, 38, 40 to 42 and 44 dependent thereon
are not supported by the originally filed disclosure.
