Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 112
The following is a quotation of the first paragraph of 35 U.S.C. 112(a):
(a) IN GENERAL.—The specification shall contain a written description of the invention, and of the manner and process of making and using it, in such full, clear, concise, and exact terms as to enable any person skilled in the art to which it pertains, or with which it is most nearly connected, to make and use the same, and shall set forth the best mode contemplated by the inventor or joint inventor of carrying out the invention.
The following is a quotation of the first paragraph of pre-AIA 35 U.S.C. 112:
The specification shall contain a written description of the invention, and of the manner and process of making and using it, in such full, clear, concise, and exact terms as to enable any person skilled in the art to which it pertains, or with which it is most nearly connected, to make and use the same, and shall set forth the best mode contemplated by the inventor of carrying out his invention.
Claims 18 and 19 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 112(a) or 35 U.S.C. 112 (pre-AIA ), first paragraph, as failing to comply with the written description requirement. The claim(s) contains subject matter which was not described in the specification in such a way as to reasonably convey to one skilled in the relevant art that the inventor or a joint inventor, or for applications subject to pre-AIA 35 U.S.C. 112, the inventor(s), at the time the application was filed, had possession of the claimed invention.
With regards to Claim 18, line 1 recites the limitation “the substrate comprises a heat sink”. The original disclosure as filed 5/28/2025 discloses a substrate forming part of a cartridge, and the cartridge and a heat sink being separate components such that the cartridge is received by the heat sink (see Specification, e.g., paragraph 329), and thermal dissipation from the cartridge via the heat sink (see Specification, e.g., paragraph 331). However, the substrate comprising a heat sink is not disclosed by the originally filed disclosure, particularly not found in Specification paragraph 363 and Figures 7A-11E and 26A-F as suggested by the Remarks filed 3/30/2026. Therefore, such limitation constitutes new matter.
With regards to Claim 19, line 1 recites the limitation “the substrate comprises a heat sink”. Claim 19 depends from Claim 3, which recites on lines 1-2 “the main body further comprises a heat sink”. The original disclosure as filed 5/28/2025 discloses a substrate forming part of a cartridge, and the cartridge and a heat sink being separate components such that the cartridge is received by the heat sink (see Specification, e.g., paragraph 329), and thermal dissipation from the cartridge via the heat sink (see Specification, e.g., paragraph 331). However, separate heat sinks such that the main body comprises a heat sink and the substrate comprising a heat sink is not disclosed by the originally filed disclosure, particularly not found in Specification paragraph 363 and Figures 7A-11E and 26A-F as suggested by the Remarks filed 3/30/2026. Therefore, such limitation constitutes new matter.
Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 103
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:
