ROBERTSON, and ANDREW J. DILLON, Administrative Patent Judges. LEBOVITZ, Administrative Patent Judge. DECISION ON APPEAL This is a decision on appeal by the Patent Owner from the Patent Examiner’s decision to reject pending claims 1, 4, 15, 16, and 18 in the ex parte reexamination of US Patent 5,771,511. The Board’s jurisdiction for this appeal is under 35 U.S.C. §§ 6(b). We affirm the Examiner’s rejections. Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 2 I. STATEMENT OF CASE The patent in dispute in this appeal is U.S. Patent No. 5,771,511, filed August 4, 1995 and issued June 30, 1998 (“the ’511 patent”). The Patent Owner and real party in interest is Hill-Rom Services, Inc. Appeal Br. 5, dated February 18, 2014. A request for ex parte reexamination under 35 U.S.C. §§ 302-307 and 37 C.F.R. § 1.510 of claims 1, 4, 11, 15, 16, 18, and 45 of the ’511 patent was made on July 20, 2012 by third party requester Stryker Corporation. Request for Reexamination (i) (“Request”). The patentability of claim 45 has been confirmed by the Examiner. Appeal Br. 6. The rejection of claim 11 was withdrawn by the Examiner. Answer 2. Patent Owner discloses there is a concurrent proceeding pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana, Case No.1: 13-CV -00765-JMS-DKL, in which the Patent Owner has asserted the ’511 patent against the Third Party Requester. Appeal Br. 5. Patent Owner also discloses that other related patents are under reexamination and that the district court has stayed the concurrent district court proceeding pending the outcome of all of the foregoing reexaminations, including the present reexamination. Id. Claims Claims 1, 4, 15, 16, and 18 are pending and stand rejected by the Examiner. Answer 2. Claims 1 and 15 are each independent claims that comprise a bed and a peer-to-peer network. Claim 1 is representative and reads as follows: Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 3 1. A bed comprising: a base frame; a deck coupled to the base frame for supporting a body; a peer-to-peer communication network having a plurality of connection points; a plurality of modules, each module being electrically coupled to a selected connection point of the peer-to-peer communication network, each module being configured to perform a dedicated function during operation of the bed, and each module being configured to communicate over the peer-to- peer communication network with selected other modules, and each module including a processor circuit configured to transmit information to any other module and to receive information from any other module over the peer-to-peer communication network. Summary of Rejections The claims stand rejected by the Examiner as follows: 1. Claims 1, 4, 15, 16 and 18 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 (a) as obvious in view of Travis 1 and Heins. 2 2. Claims 1, 4, 15, 16, and 18 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 (a) as obvious in view of the Hill-Rom Manual 3 and Heins. 1 Stephen C. Travis, WO 94/27544 published December 8, 1994 2 Eric-Jurgen Heins, US 5,596,437 issued January 21, 1997. 3 Hill-ROM service manual for the Advance 1000/2000 Bed (copyright 1993). Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 4 II. REJECTIONS 1. TRAVIS AND HEINS Claim 1 is directed to a bed comprising a base frame, a deck, a peer- to-peer communication network, and a plurality of modules. The claim stands rejected over the combination of Travis and Heins, where Travis is cited for describing a bed comprising a base frame, deck, and plurality of modules. Final Rej’n 10 (incorporating by reference pages 415-443 of the Request). Travis was also found to describe a communication network, a master-slave network with a plurality of connection points, installed in the bed, but not a “peer-to-peer communication network” as recited in the claims. Request 417-419. For the latter limitation, Heins was relied upon for its description of an X-ray device with a moveable patient table that uses the CAN communication protocol, which was found to be a peer-to-peer communication network as recited in the claims. Id. at 419. Based on these teachings, the Examiner determined it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art “to substitute the peer-to-peer communication network, as taught by Heins ’437, for the master-slave network in Travis '544 in order to provide greater processing speeds and reliable transmission of data, as taught by Heins ’437, while maintaining the ability to add or delete subsystems or modules, as taught by Travis ’544 and Heins ’437.” Final Rej’n 10. Peer-to-peer communication network Patent Owner contends that Heins does not describe a “peer-to-peer communication network” as recited in the claims. Appeal Br. 54. Rather, Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 5 Patent Owner argues that Heins describes a master controller “in which there is only one point of interaction with a user and the operation of all of the disclosed components are responsive to those inputs.” Id. We begin with claim interpretation, because before a claim can be compared to the prior art it must be properly construed. In this case, the Examiner found that Patent Owner in the related district court litigation, which included the ’511 patent, had defined peer-to-peer communication network to mean “[a] network of modules where each module can initiate messages that are sent directly to other modules to which they are connected.” Joint Claim Construction Statement 6 in Case 1:11CV01120, U.S. District Court for So. District of Indiana, dated May 21, 2012 (in IDS filed May 9, 2013). Answer 6. We adopt this definition for “peer-to-peer communication network” as recited in all the rejected claims. Patent Owner does not dispute this definition, but contends that “peer- to-peer communication network” excludes a “master-slave communication network.” Appeal Br. 16-20. Patent Owner bases this exclusion on disclosure in the ’511 patent and the examiner’s comments during the original prosecution of the ’511 patent. Id. at 18-20. The ’511 contains the following disclosure pertinent to this issue: The electronic system architecture for the hospital bed of the present invention includes a plurality of electronically controlled modules located on the bed which are interconnected in a peer-to-peer configuration. This peer-to-peer communication network configuration enables any of the plurality of modules to communicate directly with another module in the network without the need for a master controller. ’511 patent, col. 1, ll. 16-23. Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 6 In conventional bed control systems which use a master controller, the master controller must be initially designed or subsequently redesigned to accommodate additional modules. Since no master controller is required in the peer-to-peer network configuration, the electronic control system of the present invention does not have to be redesigned or reprogrammed each time a module is added or removed from the bed. Id. at col. 1, ll. 32-39. The patent does not state that a “master controller” cannot be a part of the peer-to-peer communication network. Rather, the patent states that communication is enabled between modules in the network “without the need for a master controller.” ’511 patent, col. 1, ll. 16-23. The patent states that because “no master controller is required,” the control system does not have to be redesigned when modules are added or removed from the bed. Id. at col. 1, ll. 32-39. However, consistent with the definition of “peer-to- peer communication network,” the ’511 patent describes the network as enabling communication directly between modules. ’511 patent, col. 1, ll. 16-23. The issue is whether the above-quoted language in the specification of the ’511 patent exclude a master controller from the system. During reexamination of an unexpired patent, claims are given their broadest reasonable interpretation consistent with the specification. Claim language “should be read in light of the specification as it would be interpreted by one of ordinary skill in the art.” In re Suitco Surface, Inc., 603 F.3d 1255, 1260 (Fed. Cir. 2011). Based on this canon of interpretation, the court in In re Abbott Diabetes Care Inc., 696 F.3d 1142, 1150 (Fed. Cir. Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 7 2012), interpreted the term “electrochemical sensor” to mean “a discrete electrochemical sensor devoid of external connection cables or wires to connect to a sensor control unit” (emphasis added) because the specification disparaged external cables or wires in the specification and all the disclosed embodiments lacked such cables or wires. In reaching this interpretation, the court rejected the argument that the “case law still requires an explicit disclaimer of external cables or wires” for cables and wire to have been excluded from the claim. Id. In this case, the patent specification does not disparage a master controller, but rather says that it is not needed or required. Patent Owner has not pointed to embodiments in the ’511 patent that would guide a person of ordinary skill in the art to read “peer-to-peer communication network” to exclude a master controller as was the case in Abbott. Ordinarily, limitations from the specification are not imported into the claims. Hill-Rom Servs., Inc. v. Stryker Corp., 755 F.3d 1367, 1372-73 (Fed. Cir. 2014). Thus, while the patent describes a master controller as not being necessary, Patent Owner has not provided sufficient evidence that one of ordinary skill in the art would reasonably construe the claimed peer-to-peer network to exclude a master controller. Patent Owner also argues the claims are being read broader than they were during the original prosecution of the ’511 patent. Appeal Br. 16. In the Notice of Allowance for the ’511 patent, the Examiner stated: The primary reason for allowance of the claims is the prior art of record does not teach nor does any combination thereof fairly suggest a bed having a deck coupled to a base frame with a plurality of active modules having a processor circuit Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 8 configured to communicate information to other modules through a communication network which without the need of a CPU perform [sic] dedicated functions during the operation of the bed. Notice of Allowance 2. However, this statement, does not expressly say that the Examiner had construed “a peer-to-peer communication network” to exclude a master controller. Patent Owner does not provide a definition of “master controller,” but in describing the prosecution of the ’511 patent, Patent Owner stated that the original examiner “made clear that the scope of the claims exclude an arrangement where a master controller is responsible for controlling when and whether messages are initiated on the network by any other modules.” Appeal Br. 19. Heins, however, describes an arrangement where different modules can initiate message transmission. Consequently, even were we to interpret the claims narrowly as Patent Owner contends, Heins still meets the claimed limitation of a peer-to-peer communication network. The following disclosures in Heins are pertinent to this determination: The invention relates to an X-ray device including a number of components to each of which is assigned a data transmission node working by the CAN protocol whose data input and data output are in mutual communication with other data transmission nodes via transmitters and receivers, the data transmission nodes being connected to the relevant associated components through connection lines. Heins, Abstract (emphasis added). Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 9 According to the CAN protocol, each node can transmit data to each of the other nodes at any time (Multimaster principle) without having to wait for an authorization to transmit. The exchange of information accordingly takes place very quickly, which is essential for at least some components in an X-ray device. Heins, col. 1, ll. 30-35 (emphasis added). The high access speed to other nodes provided by systems according to the CAN protocol is maintained because each of the nodes transmitting in the wireless manner can reach each and any of the other nodes transmitting in the wireless manner at any time. Heins, col. 2, ll. 24-28 (emphasis added). It is evident from these express disclosures in Heins that different nodes or modules “communicate information to other modules through a communication network . . . without the need of a CPU,” a teaching that the Examiner found to be missing from the prior art at the time the’511 patent was originally prosecuted. Notice of Allowance 2. Specifically, the components described in Heins are “in mutual communication with other data transmission nodes via transmitters and receivers,” “without having to wait for an authorization to transmit,” and “can reach each and any of the other nodes transmitting in the wireless manner at any time.” See above quoted passages from Heins. Patent Owner’s statements about there being “no disclosure that the other nodes operate without the authority of the operating unit 102 . . . more importantly, there is no disclosure that they do have unfettered access to initiate communications” (Appeal Br. 55) is undermined by the disclosures in Heins quoted above, such as “each of the nodes transmitting in the wireless manner can reach each and any of the Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 10 other nodes transmitting in the wireless manner at any time.” Heins, col. 2, ll. 24-28. Heins also specifically teaches: During the patient table movement, the node may transmit a message about the patient table position at regular time intervals or, for example, when a particular position – for example, the horizontal position – has been reached, which message is transmitted by the transmitter of the infrared converter 8, reaches in the same manner as described above inter alia the receivers of the nodes 9 and 10, and causes the node 9 to show the transmitted patient table position on the display 92. Heins, col. 4, ll. 59-67 (emphasis added). Figure 1 of Heins is reproduced below to show this configuration more clearly: Figure 1 shows components 5, 6, and 7 for moving the tabletop of a patient table. Heins, col. 3, ll. 41-55. Operating unit 102 controls the movement of the table by transmitting information wirelessly to nodes 1, 2, Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 11 and 3. Id. at col. 4, ll. 11-14. Heins explicitly discloses that node 1, to which module 5 is connected, can initiate sending a message without intervention of operating unit 102: “the node may transmit a message about the patient table position at regular time intervals or, for example, when a particular position – for example, the horizontal position – has been reached.” Id. at col. 4, ll. 59-62. This information is transmitted to other nodes – for example, node 9 which is connected to the display and node 10 which is the operating unit. Id. at col. 4, ll. 63-65. Thus, contrary to statements made by Patent Owner (See Rebuttal Br. 6), module 5 can initiate messages and communicate with a plurality of nodes in the system. The operating unit 102 controls the movement of module 5, but module 5 has the ability to initiate and send messages to other modules in the system, specifically nodes 9 and 10, and thus meets the definition of a peer-to-peer network “where each module can initiate messages that are sent directly to other modules to which they are connected.” Patent Owner refers to disclosure in Heins, and in CAN protocols generally, that networks can be configured such that a dominant message “squelches the remaining transmissions so that the dominant message is given priority access to the bus or other physical layer.” Rebuttal Br. 7. While this may be true and characteristic of the CAN protocol used in Heins, it is commonsense that node 1, which is connected to module 5, would still retain the ability to transmit messages about patient position at “regular time intervals” or when a particular position has been reached so the operator is aware of the patient’s position in the X-ray device. Heins, col. 4, ll. 59-67. Patent Owner’s statement that the transmission by the nodes (1, 2, 3) could Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 12 result from of a command from operating unit 102 (id. at 8) is inconsistent with the disclosure that messages can be transmitted at regular intervals or when a position is reached, since in each case it is the node 1/5 which is deciding when to transmit a message. Patent Owner has failed to distinguish this express disclosure in Heins from the claimed peer-to-peer communication network. Patent Owner has also not adequately explained how the presence of an operating unit that controls movement of the patient table in Heins is a “master controller” that is excluded by the claims. Patent Owner’s own definition of the peer-to-peer networks involves initiation of message transmission by nodes in the network, but does not preclude there being a unit in the system that transmits messages to other nodes to initiate their movement as described in Heins. Patent Owner cites Dailey ’350 as “mak[ing it] clear that master/slave and peer-to-peer are mutually exclusive networks as understood in the art. Dailey ’350, cl. 2, 11. 15-18.” Rebuttal Br. 17. Dailey ’350 teaches at the cited passage that “[i]n contrast to a master/slave architecture, a ‘peer-to- peer network’ permits every device on the network to initiate as well as receive messages from the other devices on the network.” As discussed, Heins’s teaches that node 1/5 can initiate messages to the display and unit 102, as well as receive messages from unit 102 and thus is not strictly a master/slave architecture as described in Dailey ’350. Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 13 Rationale for the rejection Patent Owner contends that the Examiner “relies on supposed advantages of Heins to justify modification of Travis, without considering what a person of ordinary skill in the art would find from reviewing the references. This conclusory analysis lacks the explicit analysis required by KSR.” Appeal Br. 57. Patent Owner further argues that the Examiner's conclusion “that faster processing speeds would be achieved by implementing the Heins structure in Travis assumes that the person of ordinary skill in the art would be motivated to make such a combination.” Id. Patent Owner states that the Examiner’s rationale is defective because the Examiner “fails to identify why a person of ordinary skill in the art would substitute the complicated structure of Heins for the completely operational system of Travis, other than the conclusory analysis that such a modification would make Travis process faster; a rationale that imputes a need into Travis that the reference itself does not identify.” Id. An explicit suggestion to modify the prior art is unnecessary to establish obviousness. KSR Intern. Co. v. Teleflex Inc., 550 U.S. 398, 415 (2007) made it clear that an obviousness “analysis need not seek out precise teachings directed to the specific subject matter of the challenged claim, for a court can take account of the inferences and creative steps that a person of ordinary skill in the art would employ.” KSR, 418. The Court held that “[o]ften, it will be necessary for a court to look to interrelated teachings of multiple patents; the effects of demands known to the design community or present in the marketplace; and the background knowledge possessed by a person having ordinary skill in the art, all in order to determine whether Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 14 there was an apparent reason to combine the known elements in the fashion claimed by the patent at issue.” Id. Patent Owner’s contention that the Examiner’s rationale was deficient because “the reference itself” did not identify the need for the substitution of Heins’s network into Travis’s bed (Appeal Br. 57) is therefore legally incorrect. Patent Owner’s contention that the Examiner’s analysis is conclusory is not supported by the record. The Examiner found the skilled worker would have had reason to use Heins’s network in Travis “in order to provide greater processing speeds and reliable transmission of data . . . while maintaining the ability to add or delete subsystems or modules.” Final Rej’n 10. The Examiner’s statement regarding greater processing speeds is supported by express disclosure in Heins. See, e.g., Heins, col. 1, ll. 52-54; col. 2, ll. 10-11 and 24-28. Furthermore, as set forth in the Request: it would have been obvious to include a peer to peer communication network having multiple connection points with the bed of Travis '544. See, e.g., MPEP § 2143(A) (combining prior art elements according to known methods to yield predictable results); Request 419. As held in KSR: if a technique has been used to improve one device, and a person of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that it would improve similar devices in the same way, using the technique is obvious unless its actual application is beyond his or her skill. Sakraida and Anderson's–Black Rock are illustrative—a court must ask whether the improvement is more than the predictable use of prior art elements according to their established functions. KSR at 417. Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 15 In this case, it appears from the record that the peer-to-peer communication network described in Heins’s X-ray device is being used in Travis’s hospital bed for its known and expected function in enabling communication between modules in a medical device. Patent Owner contends “that the modification suggested by the Examiner is nonobvious as being beyond the level of ordinary skill art,” citing as evidence a declaration by Michael Hayes, 4 filed in an inter partes reexamination 95/002,054 of another patent. According to Patent Owner, Mr. Hayes “admits that he was unable to substitute CAN into the architecture of the Requester's hospital beds without assistance from a third- party firm that ‘had extensive experience designing and implementing CAN networks across numerous industries.’ Hayes Decl. ¶27.” Appeal Br. 34. Patent Owner urges: The inability of Mr. Hayes to implement CAN in the Requester's hospital bed(s) without the assistance of subject matter experts, far outside the skills of a person of ordinary skill in the art, is strong objective evidence of the nonobviousness of the implementation. Id. (emphasis omitted). We have reviewed paragraph 27 of Mr. Hayes declaration and it does not contain an admission by Mr. Hayes that implementing CAN in a hospital bed was beyond his skill. Rather, Mr. Hayes testified that engaging a third party firm would save time and money. 4 Declaration by Michael J. Hayes, dated December 11, 2012, filed in reexamination 95/002,055 of US 7,669,263. Mr. Hayes is a “Senior Principal Electrical Engineer at Stryker Medical.” Hayes Decl. ¶2. Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 16 Stryker worked with a third party design firm to assist in the design and implementation of the CAN network on our hospital beds. This design firm had extensive experience designing and implementing CAN networks across numerous industries. The firm presented examples of several designs they had done for other customers, and said they could use the experience they developed working with other customers when working for Stryker, which would save us time and money. Hayes Decl. ¶27. Contrary to Patent Owner’s argument, Mr. Hayes testified: CAN was well-known in the United States and had been widely adopted in the automotive industry. Because CAN was well- known, and because the similar network requirements between hospital beds and other industries were well-known, implementing CAN on a hospital bed would not have been, as the Dixon Declaration states, "charting new waters." Id. at ¶26. Overall, selecting and implementing CAN on a hospital bed was straightforward and did not provide any unexpected results. It required the routine design choices that engineers, including myself, were familiar with and made all the time. Id. at ¶35. Consequently, we do not consider Patent Owner’s argument persuasive that Mr. Hayes testimony is evidence of the nonobviousness of the claimed invention. Summary For the foregoing reasons, we conclude that the Examiner’s rejection of claim 1 as obvious in view of Travis and Heins is supported by a preponderance of the evidence. We have fully considered Patent Owner’s Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 17 arguments, but do not find them supported by sufficient evidence or reasoning to rebut the rejection. Claims 4, 15, 16, and 18 were not argued by Patent Owner separately and thus fall with claim 1 for reasons set forth by the Examiner. 2. HILL-ROM ADVANCE MANUAL AND HEINS Patent Owner challenges this rejection for the same unpersuasive reasons as for the rejection in view of Travis and Heins. Patent Owner also argues that the bed described in the Hill-Rom Manual does not have a communication network. Appeal Br. 44. For example, Patent Owner, citing a Declaration by Paul R. Weil, contends that the Hill-Rom Manual describes a system of logic control which does not transfer communications. Id. This argument is not persuasive. Patent Owner did not identify testimony by Mr. Weil that the bed in the Hill-Rom Manual does not comprise a communication network. Arguments of counsel cannot take the place of evidence lacking in the record. Estee Lauder Inc. v. L'Oreal, S.A., 129 F.3d 588, 595 (Fed. Cir. 1997). Mr. Weil testified about numerous examples in which user input was used to operate bed, which serves as communication between the user and the bed. Weil Decl., e.g., 7-10 and 30. Weil also states: “To the extent that any user input is transferred between two locations, it is transferred as a discrete signal that is transferred directly with no intervention by any components,” indicating communication of user input within the network. Id. 46. While this transfer is explained to be like light switches (id.), it is not inconsistent with a communication function. Appeal 2014-007778 Reexamination Control 90/012,399 Patent U.S. 5,771,511 18 Nonetheless, even if the Hill-Rom Manual is determined not to be a communication network, the bed still requires user input to be adjusted as does the X-ray device in Heins. Thus, the Examiner’s determination that it would have been obvious to implement Heins’s communication network in the bed described in the Hill-Rom Manual for its known and expected functions in controlling a medical device is still appropriate and rational. For the foregoing reasons, we conclude that the Examiner’s rejection of claim 1 as obvious in view of the Hill-Rom Manual and Heins is supported by a preponderance of the evidence. We have fully considered Patent Owner’s arguments, but do not find them supported sufficient evidence or reasoning to rebut the rejection. Claims 4, 15, 16, and 18 were not argued by Patent Owner separately and thus fall with claim 1 for reasons set forth by the Examiner.
