                 Application 09/873,638                                                                                

                        Figure 2 of the instant Specification shows the same embodiment as                             
                 Figure 1, but with the disk plates pivoted about the hinges formed by the                             
                 pins 9 and the slots 10.  Figure 2 of the instant Specification is reproduced                         
                 below:                                                                                                















                 Anticipation                                                                                          
                        Claims 1-10 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) as anticipated by                          
                 Yamanaka.1  Appellant has not argued the rejected claims separately.                                  
                 Therefore, we will focus on claim 1 as representative of the claimed subject                          
                 matter, and claims 2-10 will stand or fall with claim 1, as provided for in 37                        
                 C.F.R. § 41.37(c)(1)(vii).
