The Examiner further stated that the claimed invention would have been obvious because “[s]hifting Rosenbaum’s magnets onto his wheels would have not modified the operation of his device.” Id. at 7, 24 (citing In re Japikse, 181 F.2d 1019 (CCPA 1950)).

Appellants argue that “the Examiner has failed to show in the references or elsewhere why such modifications and combinations would be made as he has proposed” and that the Examiner is engaging in impermissible hindsight reconstruction of the claimed invention. Br. 14; id. at 12 (arguing the motivation provided by the Examiner to modify Rosenbaum with the teachings of Burrows are “mere conclusory statements that do not comply with [KSR Int’l Co. v. Teleflex Inc., 550 U.S. 398 (2007)]”).
