Appeal 2006-3236 Inter Partes Reexamination Control No. 95/000,006 Proposed new claim 16 in the reexamination is reproduced below. Claim 16 is almost identical to claim 1 in the '595 patent except that the word "wall" is eliminated, as indicated in brackets. For clarity, claim 16 is not underlined as required for a proposed new reexamination claim. 16. A tray for storing a semiconductor integrated circuit device having a package and wiring terminals on a lower surface of the package, said tray comprising: a substantially planar main body; and a first storage portion provided on a first surface of said main body for storing the semiconductor integrated circuit device, said first storage portion having a bottom surface and a first wall surface extending from said bottom surface and arranged around the semiconductor integrated circuit device when the semiconductor integrated device is stored in said first storage portion; a second wall surface disposed around a circumference of the semiconductor integrated circuit device so as to limit horizontal movement of the semiconductor integrated circuit device, said first wall surface being inclined at an angle so as to support an edge of the package of the semiconductor integrated circuit device such that the wiring terminals of the semiconductor integrated circuit device do not contact said first wall surface when the semiconductor integrated circuit device is stored in said first storage portion, and said second wall surface extending from said first wall surface in a direction away from said first [wall] surface of said main body, wherein said second wall surface is inclined at an angle larger than the angle of said first wall surface, with respect to the horizontal. - 6 -Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Next
