Appeal No. 2001-1966
Application 09/140,846
1. An encapsulated electrophoretic display, comprising a
capsule comprising particles dispersed in a suspending fluid,
wherein said particles contain a liquid.
30. A process for creating an encapsulated electrophoretic
display, comprising the steps of:
(a) encapsulating a dye in a liquid into a plurality of
first capsules; and
(b) encapsulating said plurality of first capsules into a
second capsule in a binder.
The following references are relied on by the examiner:
Chang 4,314,013 Feb. 2, 1982
Saxe et al. (Saxe) 5,650,872 July 22, 1997
Jacobson 6,124,851 Sep. 26, 2000
(filing date July 20, 1995)
Claims 1-37 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103. As
evidence of obviousness, in a first stated rejection, the
examiner relies upon Saxe in view of Chang as to all of these
claims on appeal. In a second stated rejection of claims 1-4
and 30, the examiner relies upon Jacobson alone.
Rather than repeat the positions of the appellants and the
examiner, reference is made to the briefs and answer for the
respective details thereof.
