A patent for a claimed invention may not be obtained, notwithstanding that the claimed invention is not identically disclosed as set forth in section 102, if the differences between the claimed invention and the prior art are such that the claimed invention as a whole would have been obvious before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to a person having ordinary skill in the art to which the claimed invention pertains. Patentability shall not be negated by the manner in which the invention was made.
Claim(s) 3 is/are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103 as being unpatentable over Kajiwara et al. (US 20150366086; “Kajiwara” hereinafter) in view of Matsumoto (US 20180138615; “Matsumoto” hereinafter).

[0063]), wherein conductor tracks (113) electrically conductively connect the at least one plug at the first free end and the second free end (par. [0063]); and a plastic encapsulation (101, 102; “Insulating resin members 101 and 102 are respectively formed, by transfer molding of a thermosetting resin”, par. [0062]) which seals the printed circuit board between the first free end and the second free end (par. [0065], fig. 9B, also see par. [0062] and [0064]), and rests against an inner side of the walls of the housing of the component in a first transversal direction and a second transversal direction (“Side surface portions of the board 91 protruding from the insulating resin members 101 and 102 are fitted to the groove-shaped side surface guides. The board 91 is fitted to the side surface guides and pushed until the insulating resin member 101 hits the opening 114a of the partition wall 114”, par. [0065]; also par. [0064] and fig. 9B).

Response to Arguments
Applicant’s arguments filed on 05/20/2019 have been fully considered but they are not persuasive.
In the remarks:
Applicants on page argues that- “After the foregoing Amendment, claim 1 has been amended to require, in part, "wherein conductor tracks on an outer surface of the printed circuit board electrically conductively connect the at least one plug at the first free end and the second free end." Applicant submits that none of the cited references of record, alone or in combination, teach, suggest, or disclose the limitations required by amended claim 1."
In response to argument- Examiner respectfully disagrees with applicant’s argument. Examiner relied on newly added art Matsumoto to teach this limitation. Newly added reference Hernandez also teach this limitation (see rejection of claim 10).
Applicants on page argues that- “Claim 1 requires "a plastic encapsulation which seals the printed circuit board between the first free end and the second free end," and that the plastic encapsulation "rests against an inner side of the walls of the housing ... in a first transversal direction and a second transversal direction." As described in Applicant's specification and drawings, the "plastic encapsulation" is the molded/encapsulating plastic on the printed circuit board provided between the free ends and configured to bear internally against the housing walls in two different transverse directions (see, e.g., Applicant's Fig. 2 and the accompanying description; Fig. 5 illustrating the two transverse directions). In other words, the claim is not satisfied by a structure where only the printed circuit board is guided by housing features and/or where a separate sealing part merely contacts an opening or interface; rather, the claim affirmatively requires that the plastic encapsulation itself be the structure that rests against the inner housing walls in both transverse directions. "
In response to argument- Examiner respectfully disagrees with applicant’s argument. Kajiwara teaches thermosetting resin members101 and 102 partially cover the circuit board 91 and spread or extend along two transverse directions as depicted in annotated fig. 9A. Further, at least a portion of the thermosetting resin members 101 and 102 rests against an inner side and/or inner side of the openings 109a and 114a of the walls 109 and 114 respectively as depicted in fig. 9B.
Further, in response to applicant's argument that the references fail to show certain features of the invention, it is noted that the features upon which applicant relies (i.e., "plastic encapsulation" is the molded/encapsulating plastic on the printed circuit board …) are not recited in the rejected claim(s). Although the claims are interpreted in light of the specification, limitations from the specification are not read into the claims. See In re Van Geuns, 988 F.2d 1181, 26 USPQ2d 1057 (Fed. Cir. 1993).
Applicants on page argues that- “With respect to Kajiwara, the Action relies on Kajiwara's disclosure that "side surface portions of the board ... protruding from the insulating resin members ... are fitted to ... side surface guides," and that the board is pushed until an insulating resin member "hits the opening ... of the partition wall." Even accepting this description, it does not disclose the claimed configuration where the "plastic encapsulation ... rests against an inner side of the walls of the housing ... in a first transversal direction and a second transversal direction." Kajiwara's cited passage describes (at most) the printed circuit board (not the plastic encapsulation) being fitted to side guides, and a resin member reaching ("hitting") an opening that functions as a stop. A "hit" of an opening edge is not a disclosure that the plastic encapsulation rests against an inner side of the surrounding housing walls in both transverse directions as recited. Nor does the cited passage disclose that the encapsulation bears against the inner housing walls in two transverse directions. Instead, it attributes the guiding/fit to "side surface portions of the board," which is materially different from the claim requirement that the plastic encapsulation itself rests against the inner side of the housing walls in both transverse directions. Accordingly, Kajiwara fails to disclose at least the "rests against an inner side ... in a first transversal direction and a second transversal direction" limitation required by claim 1."
In response to argument- Examiner respectfully disagrees with applicant’s argument. Kajiwara teaches thermosetting resin members101 and 102 partially cover the circuit board 91 and spread or extend along two transverse directions as depicted in annotated fig. 9A. Further, at least a portion of the thermosetting resin members 101 and 102 rests against an inner side and/or inner side of the openings 109a and 114a of the walls 109 and 114 respectively as depicted in fig. 9B.
