DETAILED ACTION
Notice of Pre-AIA or AIA Status
The present application, filed on or after March 16, 2013, is being examined under the first inventor to file provisions of the AIA .
This is the first Office Action on the merits. Claims 1-20 are currently pending, with claims 5 and 20-22 are withdrawn from consideration and claims 1-4, 6-19, and 23-25 are considered.
Election/Restrictions
Applicant's election with traverse of Species A in the reply filed on 03/10/2026 is acknowledged. The traversal is on the grounds that the species identified are not distinct inventions that would require separate searches and examinations as they “merely represent different embodiments or implementations of the same underlying system”. This is not found persuasive because while the species may include similar elements, they operate under different principles (e.g., Species A utilizes siphoning based on the placement of the “suck component” and “extension component”, which is different from Species B, C, D, and E, which all utilize passive communicating vessel principles).
The requirement is still deemed proper and is therefore made FINAL.
Priority
Receipt is acknowledged of certified copies of papers required by 37 CFR 1.55.
Specification
The title of the invention is not descriptive. A new title is required that is clearly indicative of the invention to which the claims are directed.
The following title is suggested: “Hummingbird Feeder and Camera System” or “Hummingbird Feeder and Image Shooting System”.
Claim Objections
The claims are objected to because of the following informalities: the claims appear to be a literal translation into English from a foreign document and are replete with grammatical and idiomatic errors. For example, in claim 1, “the suck component being used for suck of a hummingbird” should be corrected.
Appropriate correction is required.
Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 112(b)
The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 112(b):
(b) CONCLUSION.—The specification shall conclude with one or more claims particularly pointing out and distinctly claiming the subject matter which the inventor or a joint inventor regards as the invention.
Claims 1-4, 6-19, and 24-25 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 112(b) as being indefinite for failing to particularly point out and distinctly claim the subject matter which the inventor or a joint inventor regards as the invention.
Claim 1 is indefinite because it is unclear what is being required in the following recitation: “the extension component being used for extending the suck component to a designated shooting position opposite to the camera for the camera to capture an image of the hummingbird in a pre-set area according to shooting requirements when the hummingbird is sucking sugar water; wherein the image of the hummingbird comprises: at least one of the hummingbird, the suck component, and the extension component”. It is unclear if applicant is attempting to positively recite the image. One of ordinary skill in the art would not be able to reasonably ascertain the metes and bounds of the claimed subject matter. Claims 2-3 are similarly indefinite.
Claim 3 is indefinite because it is unclear which limitations are included in the conditional statement, especially in view of the formatting, spacing, and punctuation. Is claim 3 stating:
Interpretation I: “the suck component is provided with a water storing bladder, and the suck port communicates with the water storing bladder” or “the water storing bladder independently stores water” or “the water storing bladder is connected to a water tank, and the water tank supplies the sugar water” are all included in the conditional statement.
Interpretation II: the limitation of “the suck component is provided with a water storing bladder, and the suck port communicates with the water storing bladder” is required, while only “the water storing bladder independently stores water” or “the water storing bladder is connected to a water tank, and the water tank supplies the sugar water” is part of the conditional statement.
Claim 7 is indefinite because it is unclear which limitations are included in the conditional statement, especially in view of the formatting, spacing, and punctuation. Is claim 7 stating:
Interpretation I: all the following limitations are part of the conditional statement (“the water delivering passage communicates with the water tank and the suck component” or “the suck component is provided with a water storing bladder, and the water delivering passage communicates with the water tank and the water storing bladder”.
Interpretation II: “the water delivering passage communicates with the water tank and the suck component” or “the suck component is provided with a water storing bladder” is part of the conditional statement, and “the water delivering passage communicates with the water tank and the water storing bladder” is not a part of the conditional statement.
Claim 15 is indefinite because it is unclear what is meant by “a thickness of a gasket of the recessed portion is smaller than a thickness of a respective gasket of other parts”. It is unclear if “a respective gasket of other parts” is being required in the limitation. One of ordinary skill in the art would not be able to reasonably ascertain the metes and bounds of the claimed subject matter.
Claim 24 recites the limitation, "the plurality of suck component" in lines 1-2. There is insufficient antecedent basis for this limitation in the claim.
Claim 25 recites the limitation, “wherein the camera captures an image of the humming bird at 360 degrees in at least one dimension”. This term is indefinite because it is unclear what this limitation is requiring.
In view of the rejections above under 35 USC § 112, the claims referred to in any and all rejections below are rejected as best understood. All other claims depending on one or more of the rejected claims above are rejected the same.
Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 102
The following is a quotation of the appropriate paragraphs of 35 U.S.C. 102 that form the basis for the rejections under this section made in this Office action:
A person shall be entitled to a patent unless –
(a)(1) the claimed invention was patented, described in a printed publication, or in public use, on sale, or otherwise available to the public before the effective filing date of the claimed invention.

Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 103
The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 103 which forms the basis for all obviousness rejections set forth in this Office action:
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.
The factual inquiries for establishing a background for determining obviousness under 35 U.S.C. 103 are summarized as follows:
1. Determining the scope and contents of the prior art.
2. Ascertaining the differences between the prior art and the claims at issue.
3. Resolving the level of ordinary skill in the pertinent art.
4. Considering objective evidence present in the application indicating obviousness or nonobviousness.
Claims 1, 6-8 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103 as being unpatentable over Gauker et al. (US 8739733 B2), hereafter referred to as “Gauker” in view of Li.
Regarding claim 1, Gauker teaches a hummingbird shooting system (figs. 1-16), comprising:
a feeding assembly, the feeding assembly comprising an suck component (70) and an extension component (stem portion of 68), the suck component being used for suck of a hummingbird (col. 5, lines 42-50), the extension component being connected to the suck component (fig. 1), but does not explicitly teach a camera, and the extension component being used for extending the suck component to a designated shooting position opposite to the camera for the camera to capture an image of the hummingbird in a pre-set area according to shooting requirements when the hummingbird is sucking sugar water;
