Summary
The application concerns a profile for a bricklayer-™s tool. The tool comprises a staff, a clamp, and an arrangement of bolts and handwheels to allow positioning. The main claim is directed to extrusion dies to produce said tool. The hearing officer considered whether the invention was sufficiently disclosed as required by Section 14(3); whether the amended claim disclosed added matter as set out in Section 76(2); and whether the amended claim clearly defined the scope of the invention as required by Section 14(5)(b). The hearing officer found that the application was not sufficiently disclosed and was not clear enough to be performed by a skilled addressee. As such it was not necessary to give further consideration of the added subject matter. The application was refused under Section 18(3).
