If the proposed modification would render the prior art invention being modified unsatisfactory for its intended purpose, then there is no suggestion or motivation to make the proposed modification. In re Gordon, 733 F.2d 900 (Fed. Cir. 1984). Nakagaki states, “it is an object of the present invention . . . to provide an elevator capable of further reducing the vertical height of a top space of an elevator shaft, of further stably suspending a cage, and comprising a reduced number of component parts.” Nakagaki ¶ 17 (emphasis added). The modification proposed by the Examiner would defeat this objective, thus, rendering Nakagaki unsatisfactory for this intended purpose. Accordingly, Appellants’ argument is persuasive.
