 To the extent that functional limitations imply structure, they cannot be ignored. See, e.g., Textron Innovations Inc. v. Am. Eurocopter Corp., 498 F. App’x 23, 28 (Fed. Cir. 2012) (“In certain circumstances functional language may be used to add limitations to an apparatus claim.”) (citing K-2 Corp. v. Salomon S.A., 191 F.3d 1356, 1363 (Fed. Cir. 1999) (“[T]he functional language tells us something about the structural requirements”)).

Although we agree with the Examiner that the disputed limitation is a functional limitation, to the extent that functional limitations imply structure, they cannot be ignored. See, e.g., Textron Innovations Inc. v. Am. Eurocopter Corp., 498 F. App’x 23, 28 (Fed. Cir. 2012) (“In certain circumstances functional language may be used to add limitations to an apparatus claim.”) (citing K-2 Corp. v. Salomon S.A., 191 F.3d 1356, 1363 (Fed. Cir. 1999) (“[T]he functional language tells us something about the structural requirements . . . .”)). By its plain language, claim 3 requires a rotating unit that is structurally capable of “rotating] a dumpling wrapper cut by the cutting unit relative to a dumpling die,” such as the rotating unit described by the Appellants’ Specification. See, e.g., Spec. 10:5-11; Fig. 7.
