Appeal No. 2002-0271
Application No. 09/467,406
has withdrawn the appeal as to claims 21 through 24 and conclude
that the examiner's rejection of such claims is not before us for
review. Thus, the appeal as to claims 21 through 24 is
dismissed. Claims 8, 12 through 14, 26 and 27, the only other
claims remaining in the application, stand objected to, but have
been indicated by the examiner to be allowable if rewritten in
independent form. Claims 15 through 20 have been canceled.
As noted on page 1 of the specification, appellant's
invention relates to safety razors of the type that have a
plurality of adjacently mounted blades permanently mounted in a
razor head. As can be seen from Figure 9 of the application, the
invention more particularly relates to a razor having a plurality
of short blades (98) mounted in the razor head at a high slicing
angle of greater than 30 degrees and less than about 85 degrees,
and oriented at a shaving angle in the range between 2 degrees
and 90 degrees. Independent claims 1, 11 and 25 are
representative of the subject matter on appeal and a copy of
those claims can be found in the Appendix to appellant's brief
(Paper No. 13).
