Obviousness rejection

English to Chinese Law/Patents Engineering: Industrial Bowling patent
Amending the claims to include ridges 117 that prevent the ball from contacting the illumination sources 115 (if this is accurate) may be the best way to approach the enablement rejection, in addition to helping us with the obviousness rejection discussed below.

(因专利申请的)显而易见性驳回

在美国,审查员或法院判断两件专利申请是否相同时,是根据美国专利法第 102 条(新颖性)和 103 条(非显而易见性)进行的。如果两件专利申请相比没有独占性,或者是显而易见的,即使范围不同,但从法律上讲也认为它们是相同的发明申请(笔者根据所介绍的案例,认为范围不同是指上位和下位的技术方案之间是显而易见的情况),都会以美国专利法第 101 条驳回。

显著性多用于商标申请, 与专利申请的显而易见性含义不同。

商标的显著性,又称做商标的区别性或者识别性(distinctive character or

Patent prosecution is often an adversarial process, in which the Examiner assigned to your regular patent application rejects your claims and you attempt to overcome those rejections. It is not unusual for the Examiner to reject claims, giving as a reason for that rejection that the claimed invention would have been obvious to a person having ordinary skill in the art at the time the applicant conceived the claimed subject matter. This article explains how to overcome such obviousness rejections.
An obviousness rejection (made under 35 USC 103) is an assertion by the Examiner that a particular invention as described by the proposed words of a patent claim is insignificantly different from the prior art. The Examiner is not necessarily saying that your invention is obvious per se, but rather the way you have described it in a claim renders the subject matter obvious. (For example, you may have described in a claim the basic idea of your invention, rather than one way to do it, which is what you really invented.)
