Appeal 2007-4189
Application 10/164,986
the lower ring taught by AAPA comprises blind holes. In other words, we
find that AAPA either teaches or would have suggested “at least two dowel
pins connecting said first and second ring together by frictionally engaging
said at least two blind holes in said first ring and said at least two blind holes
in said second ring” as required by claim 21.
Accordingly, we affirm the Examiner's rejections of claims 21-29.
ORDER
The Examiner's decision rejecting claims 1-9 and 11 is reversed. The
Examiner's decision rejecting claims 21-29 is affirmed. The decision of the
Examiner is affirmed-in-part.
No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with
this appeal may be extended under 37 C.F.R. § 1.136(a)(1)(iv)
