[Element 1]: See [location]
[Element 2]: See [location]
[Element 3]: See [location] ...

Therefore, all limitations of claim [X] are met by [Reference].

Proposed § 103 Rejection

Claim(s) [X, Y, Z] are rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as obvious over [Reference A] in view of [Reference B].

Reasoning:

[Reference A] discloses:

[Elements 1, 2, 3]: See [locations]

[Reference A] does not explicitly disclose:

[Element 4]

However, [Reference B] teaches [Element 4]: See [location].

Motivation to Combine: [Reasoning why skilled artisan would combine A and B]

Predictable Result: The combination would produce the predictable result of [claimed invention].

Therefore, claim [X] would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art.

Dependent claims [Y, Z] would also be obvious because [reasoning].
