Pursuant to our authority under 37 CFR § 1.196(b), we
enter the following new rejections.
Claim 1 is rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) as being
anticipated by Cone. Using claim 1 as a guide, Cone discloses
a wheel blocking device comprising an elongated guide means 23
arranged upon a ground surface A, and a wheel block carrier 59
guided slidably in a lengthwise direction of the guide means
(column 6, lines 19-23). The wheel block carrier includes
wheel blocks 27, 29 guided for movement by linkage 73-81
transverse (i.e., crosswise) to the lengthwise direction.
Cone further discloses control and drive means (hydraulic
cylinder 33 and the hydraulic control circuit of Figure 4) for
moving wheel block carrier 59 relative to guide means 23
(column 7, lines 40-47) and for moving wheel blocks 27, 29
relative to wheel block carrier 59 (column 7, lines 33-40).
