1765 Ex Parte Hedrick et al 12770529 - (D) OWENS 103 CANAANLAW, P.C. LENIHAN, JEFFREYS
For support, the Appellants rely on, inter alia, Kropa v. Robie, 187 F.2d 150, 152 (CCPA 1951). According to the Appellants:
In Kropa the Court held that the preamble, "an abrasive article," gave life and meaning to the interference count at issue, although the claim recited abrasive grains and a binder, because not every combination of those components forms an abrasive article .... Kropa supports patentability here, as not every combination of upper and lower sheets form "roll roofing."
App. Br. 12 (citation omitted).
