Field of Art

Vehicle seating systems and mobility vehicle interior configurations, specifically focusing on adaptable seat mounting technologies for transportation vehicles including specialized mobility vehicles

Person of Ordinary Skill (PHOSITA) Profile

A mechanical engineer with expertise in automotive seating design, familiar with vehicle interior modification techniques, CAD design, and adaptive mounting systems for transportation vehicles

Obviousness Rationale

A person skilled in the art would recognize that the PTD represents predictable variations on the source patent's core seat mounting technology by extending the fundamental adapter plate concept to new use cases while maintaining substantially similar structural and functional principles. The disclosed variations demonstrate incremental engineering adaptations that would be apparent to a skilled practitioner seeking to optimize vehicle seating configurations.

Obvious Combinations & Variations

Adapter plate with multiple through-holes and threaded through-bores for seat mounting
PTD Variation
Enhanced mounting configuration with modified hole patterns and alternative attachment mechanisms
Obviousness Reasoning
Routine design modification representing predictable variation in mounting geometry, achievable through standard engineering design choices
Source Patent Element
Floor-mounted seat assembly with modular adapter configuration
PTD Variation
Extended application of adapter plate concept to alternative vehicle interior layouts
Obviousness Reasoning
Logical extension of existing technical solution to different vehicle types using known engineering adaptation techniques
Source Patent Element
Threaded through-bores for securing base components
PTD Variation
Alternative fastening approaches maintaining core mechanical interface principles
Obviousness Reasoning
