Appeal No. 1996-2199
Application 08/191,060
a temperature measuring circuit connected to said
temperature sensing element and to said commutation
controller, for causing the commutation controller to operate
at the second frequency responsive to the temperature of the
substrate exceeding a first threshold temperature and for
subsequently causing the commutation controller to operate at
the first frequency responsive to the temperature of the
substrate falling below a second threshold temperature, the
second threshold temperature being lower than the first
threshold temperature.
The examiner relies on the following reference:
Ohi 5,296,789 Mar. 22, 1994
(effectively filed May 17, 1991)
Claims 1, 2, 4-11, 13, 15-21, 23, 24 and 26-29 stand
rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103. As evidence of obviousness
the examiner offers Ohi taken alone. A rejection of claim 27
under 35 U.S.C. § 112 has been withdrawn [answer, page 5].
Rather than repeat the arguments of appellant or the
examiner, we make reference to the briefs and the answer for
the respective details thereof.
OPINION
We have carefully considered the subject matter on
appeal, the rejection advanced by the examiner and the
evidence of obviousness relied upon by the examiner as support
