As Appellant argues (Appeal Br. 5), however, the Examiner’s reliance on
Dulberg to establish the prima facie obviousness of such a modification is
misplaced. At issue in Dulberg was whether a prior art disclosure of a cap pressfitted over the end of an assembly rendered obvious a manually removable cap in a
similar assembly. In re Dulberg, 289 F.2d 522, 523 (CCPA1961). The court
indicated that “[w]hether a cap is manually removable depends upon whether it is
desired to gain ready access to the space covered by the cap. If it were considered
desirable for any reason to obtain access to the end . . . it would be obvious to
make the cap removable for that purpose.” Id. Unlike Dulberg, the Examiner’s
proposed modification in the present case involves dividing Overton’s single
water-swellable element/tape 14 into two distinct parts or pieces, rather than
making two separate elements manually separable instead of press-fitted. Dulberg
is thus factually distinct from the present case. In addition, the Examiner does not
provide any reason in the Final Action for why one of ordinary skill in the art would have considered it desirable to divide Overton’s water-swellable
element/tape 14 into two separate water-swellable element/tapes 14.
