Appeal No. 1999-0972
Application 08/724,340
distances equal to or less than a standard spacing of at least
15 inches comprising, inter alia, the steps of providing a
series of separably joined insulation modules, each having a
width of between about one and eight inches, detaching at
least one module from the series to form an insulation panel
having a width approximating the distance between adjacent
framing members and inserting the panel into the cavity. In
short, there is nothing in Grant’s disclosure of multiple
conformable insulation assembly 60 which cures the
Sawtell’s failure to meet these claim limitations.
In summary, the decision of the examiner to reject 1
through 16, 18 through 26 and 38 through 66 is affirmed with
respect to claims 1 through 16 and 18 through 26 and reversed
with respect to claims 38 through 66.
