The principle of "rearrangement of the parts" finds its roots in In re Japikse, 181 F.2d 1019, 1023 (CCPA 1950). There, claims were held unpatentable because rearranging the position of a starting switch would not have modified the operation of the device. Id. But, Japikse does not stand for a per se rule of obviousness simply through rearrangement of individual parts nor does it displace the requirement of an articulated reason to support the proposed modification. See In re Fritch, 972 F.2d 1260, 1266 (Fed. Cir. 1992).
