Appeal No. 98-3354 Page 8 Application No. 08/427,743 1990), Specialty Composites v. Cabot Corp., 845 F.2d 981, 986, 6 USPQ2d 1601, 1604 (Fed. Cir. 1988) and In re Sneed, 710 F.2d 1544, 1548, 218 USPQ 385, 388 (Fed. Cir. 1983)). Here, we can think of no circumstances under which the artisan, consistent with the appellant's specification, would construe the resilient, elastic member 60 of Guzik to correspond to the claimed weight. With respect to claims 25-27, 34, 35 and 37, we have carefully reviewed the teachings of Salminen but find nothing therein which would overcome the deficiencies of Guzik that we have noted above. The examiner's rejections are all reversed. REVERSEDPage: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
