Clearly, King does not provide such evidence and the examiner has provided no evidence of such, especially important in the face of appellants’ reasonable argument that such current is not induced in the ring. More importantly, even if the King and Allegre teachings were to be combined with Persson, we are at a loss as to how, exactly, such a combination would be made. There is no indication of how the squirrel cage structures of King and Allegre would be incorporated into Persson. If, as the examiner appears to indicate, only the end rings of these structures would be incorporated, the question again is raised as to why the artisan would have dissected the squirrel cage structures of King and Allegre and used only the end rings therefrom. Further, why would the artisan have been led to modify Persson so as to include the rings and how would such rings be installed in Persson?
