Kinnear-Weed Corporation v. Humble Oil & Refining Company
Opinion
We did not intend to read into the claims of appellant’s patent, as limitations of that patent, any part of the drawings or of the specifications not expressed or necessarily referred to by implication in those claims. In our opinion, the claims themselves of the reissue patent are limited to a combination rotary drilling tool, bit, or drill, and the patent has not been infringed by the appellee. We correct clerical errors in a sentence in the next to the concluding paragraph of the opinion reading, “We agree with the district court that the appellant has not infringed appellee’s patent” [259 F.2d 402] by changing the sentence to read “We agree with the district court that the appellee has not infringed appellant’s patent.” The petition for rehearing is
Denied.
