the evidence of record, in support of the allegation. The allegation, without more,
carries little weight in the instant inquiry.
Because Li and Epstein are sufficient to demonstrate prima facie unpatentability
of at least instant claim 20, we consider Mano to represent merely cumulative
teachings. We sustain the § 103 rejection of claims 1-3, 20-24, 26-29, 31-37, 39-45, 47,
and 48.
CONCLUSION
The rejection of claims 1-3, 20-24, 26-29, 31-37, 39-45, 47, and 48 under 35
U.S.C. § 103 is affirmed.
