26 Final Written Decision original: Final Written Decision original

Document IPR2023-00485, No. 26 Final Written Decision original - Final Written Decision original (P.T.A.B. Sep. 10, 2024)
Dec. 8 (adopting Patent Owner’s own proposed definition of one of ordinary skill in the art); see Sur-reply 3–4 (citing Ex. 1066, 34:16–35:9; Ex. 1067, 101:3– 12, 102:20–104:9; Ex. 2017 ¶¶ 3–4, 8–10) (failing to establish adequately, if at all, how Dr. Howle’s qualifications include the requisite minimum five- year period of relevant design experience).
12 Even if Dr. Howle met the qualifications of one of ordinary skill in the art, for the reasons set forth below, we would arrive at the same conclusion, i.e., that the challenged claims would have been obvious over the combined disclosures of Yoakim, Jarisch, Rossi, and Castellani.
Patent 11,230,430 B2 “To satisfy the written description requirement the disclosure of the prior application must ‘convey with reasonable clarity to those skilled in the art that, as of the filing date sought, the inventor was in possession of the invention.” PowerOasis, 522 F.3d at 1306 (quoting Vas-Cath Inc. v. Mahurkar, 935 F.2d 1555, 1563–64 (Fed. Cir. 1991)) (internal marks omitted).
But Patent Owner and Dr. Howell do not explain how a barcode could be used in the devices depicted in Figures 16–18, which place the detection means 2.4.2 on the outer circumference of the flange (not its underside) and rely on toothed-rings physically interacting with either the chamber, retaining arms, or a pinion.
Petitioner further contends that one of ordinary skill in the art would have implemented the capsule recognition process of Rossi in the device of Yoakim and Jarisch in order to both increase safety and provide improved accuracy of brewing conditions.
