ARGUMENT(S) |
In the Office Action having a mailing date of September 17, 2019, the Examining Attorney required (i) Applicant enter certain amendments to the goods identified in Classes 7 and 9, (ii) Applicant
provide further information regarding the significance or meaning of the wording "MUCUBE", "MU" and/or "CUBE" appearing in the mark, (iii) Applicant clarify its entity type and (iv) Applicant provide
a true copy, photocopy, certification, or certified copy of the foreign registration from Applicant's country of origin. Applicant responds to each item raised as follows:
Amendments to Classes 7 and 9
Applicant amends certain of the goods in Classes 7 and 9 as provided in the applicable portion of the form herein. Additionally, Applicant respectfully requests the Examining Attorney reconsider
the requirement to amend the following goods identified in Classes 7 and 9 and consider the same identifications which have been accepted by the Office in the case of U.S. Registration No. 5,975,022
for "AFS" also in the name of the Applicant and identifying goods in Classes 7 and 9. See TSDR records and the registration certificate for U.S. Registration No. 5,975,022 attached hereto. In
consideration of U.S. Registration No. 5,975,022, Applicant respectfully requests the Examining Attorney reconsider the following identifications in Classes 7 and 9 of the present application:
Class 7:
"fluid controllers for use with machines for manufacturing semiconductor, solar cell, light emitting diode, display, liquid crystal and organic electroluminescence"
"fluid measurement apparatus for use with machines for manufacturing semiconductor, solar cell, light emitting diode, display, liquid crystal and organic electroluminescence"
"concentration controllers for use with machines for manufacturing semiconductor, solar cell, light emitting diode, display, liquid crystal and organic electroluminescence"
"concentration meters for use with machines for manufacturing semiconductor, solar cell, light emitting diode, display, liquid crystal and organic electroluminescence"
"concentration monitors for use with machines for manufacturing semiconductor, solar cell, light emitting diode, display, liquid crystal and organic electroluminescence"
"concentration sensors for use with machines for manufacturing semiconductor, solar cell, light emitting diode, display, liquid crystal and organic electroluminescence"
"fluid flow sensors for use with machines for manufacturing semiconductor, solar cell, light emitting diode, display, liquid crystal and organic electroluminescence"
Class 9:
"concentration meters"
Significance or Meaning of the Wording "MUCUBE", "MU" and/or "CUBE" Appearing in the Mark
Applicant enters a statement that the wording "MUCUBE", "MU" and "CUBE" have no meaning or significance in Applicant's trade or industry as provided in the applicable portion of the
form herein. Additionally, Applicant provides the following further information:
(1) Does “MU” or the Greek letter “μ” have any
meaning with respect to the applicant’s goods?
The "MU" or the Greek letter “μ” do not have any meaning
with respect to Applicant's goods.
(2) Is “MU” or the Greek letter “μ” descriptive with respect to the applicant’s goods?
The "MU" or the Greek letter “μ” are not descriptive with respect to
Applicant's goods.
(3) Does “CUBE” have any meaning with respect to the applicant’s
goods?
The wording "CUBE" does not have any meaning with respect to Applicant's goods.
(4) Is “CUBE” descriptive with respect to the applicant’s
goods?
The wording "CUBE" is
not descriptive with respect to Applicant's goods.
(5) What is the meaning of “MUCUBE?”
The
wording "MUCUBE" does not have any meaning.
(6)
Is “MUCUBE” a coined term?
The wording "MUCUBE" is a coined term.
Entity
Applicant clarifies its entity type as "kabushiki kaisha" as provided in the applicable portion of the form
herein.
Foreign Registration Certificate
Applicant provides a true copy, photocopy, certification or certified copy of the foreign registration certificate from Applicant's country of origin as provided herein.
Also, Applicant has submitted a request to delete the 1(b) filing basis on the assumption that the foreign registration certificate submitted will be accepted for 44(e) filing basis. If for any
reason, the foreign registration certificate is insufficient for the 44(e) filing basis, Applicant requests the 1(b) filing basis be
reinstated.
It is now believed that the case is in condition for publication and such action is hereby respectfully requested. Should the Examining
Attorney have any questions regarding the foregoing, please contact the undersigned at (303)
863-9700.
