Regarding the lower surface identified by the Examiner as corresponding to the claimed second location, the Examiner does not provide a persuasive reason why one skilled in the art would understand this surface as "designed" or "made" to accomplish the specific objective recited. See, e.g., In re Giannelli, 739 F. 3d at 1380 ("the relevant question before the Board was whether the apparatus described in the [prior-art] patent was "'made to," "designed to," or "configured to,"' allow the user to perform [ the recited function]") accord In re Man Machine Interface Technologies, 822 F. 3d 1282, 1286-87 (Fed. Cir. 2016). Thus, the Examiner's finding cannot be sustained.

Giannelli, In re, 739 F.3d 1375, 109 USPQ2d 1333 (Fed. Cir. 2014) 2111.04
