Appellants contend that Vanbragt is nonanalogous art with respect to the claimed invention and Rice (App. Br. 4).

Two separate tests define the scope of analogous prior art: (1) whether the art is from the same endeavor, regardless of the problem addressed and, (2) if the reference is not within the field of the inventor’s endeavor, whether the reference still is reasonably pertinent to the particular problem with which the inventor is involved.
