`
`Sir:
`
`Applicants’ representatives conducted a telephone interview with the Examiner on
`
`January 29, 2014. Applicants’ representative discussed the inventive feature of the
`
`device wherein the position of the spring joint axis is in the negative Y—axis range when
`
`the second attachment is rotated by the actuator. The Examiner asked how the spring
`
`joint is not bent entirely, and why the portion of the spring joint near the first attachment
`is not bent as well.
`It was agreed upon that the amendments appear to introduce
`
`structural features which are not present
`
`in the prior art used in the most recent
`
`rejection, and therefore overcome the previous rejection. However, the support for how
`
`the spring remains unbent near the first at72ment must be .
