Appeal No. 98-2111
Application 08/596,564
cylindrical inner surface of the hub/boss (78) extend
vertically above the food holding section of the plate (60)
therein. Again, we note that Patterson ‘737 is entirely
silent concerning any such relationship and that the showing
in Figure 4 is, at best, inconclusive.
In light of the foregoing, we will not sustain the
examiner’s rejection of independent claims 20, 28 or 30, or
any of the claims which depend therefrom, under 35 U.S.C. §
103 based on the combination of Patterson ‘737 and Patterson
‘028.
As should be apparent from the foregoing, the decision of
the examiner rejecting claims 20 through 30 of the present
application under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is reversed.
REVERSED
