`TO AVOID ABANDONMENT OF APPLICANT’S TRADEMARK APPLICATION, THE USPTO MUST RECEIVE APPLICANT’S
`COMPLETE RESPONSE TO THIS LETTER WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF THE ISSUE/MAILING DATE BELOW.   A RESPONSE
`TRANSMITTED THROUGH THE TRADEMARK ELECTRONIC APPLICATION SYSTEM (TEAS) MUST BE RECEIVED BEFORE
`MIDNIGHT EASTERN TIME OF THE LAST DAY OF THE RESPONSE PERIOD.
`
`ISSUE/MAILING DATE: 4/3/2018
`
`TEAS PLUS OR TEAS REDUCED FEE (TEAS RF) APPLICANTS – TO MAINTAIN LOWER FEE, ADDITIONAL
`REQUIREMENTS MUST BE MET, INCLUDING SUBMITTING DOCUMENTS ONLINE:  Applicants who filed their application
`online using the lower-fee TEAS Plus or TEAS RF application form must (1) file certain documents online using TEAS, including responses to

`and (3) agree to receive correspondence from the USPTO by e-mail throughout the prosecution of the application.  See 37 C.F.R. §§2.22(b),
`2.23(b); TMEP §§819, 820.  TEAS Plus or TEAS RF applicants who do not meet these requirements must submit an additional processing fee of
`$125 per class of goods and/or services.  37 C.F.R. §§2.6(a)(1)(v), 2.22(c), 2.23(c); TMEP §§819.04, 820.04.  However, in certain situations,
`TEAS Plus or TEAS RF applicants may respond to an Office action by authorizing an examiner’s amendment by telephone or e-mail without
`
`incurring this additional fee.   
`
`The referenced application has been reviewed by the assigned trademark examining attorney.  Applicant must respond timely and completely to
`the issue(s) below.  15 U.S.C. §1062(b); 37 C.F.R. §§2.62(a), 2.65(a); TMEP §§711, 718.03.
`
`Summary of Issues
`
`1)     Prior-Filed Pending Applications
`2)     Identification of Goods and Services
`3)     Multiple-Class Application Advisory
`4)     Disclaimer
`
`Search of Office Database
`
`The trademark examining attorney has searched the USPTO’s database of registered and pending marks and has found no similar registered
`marks that would bar registration under Trademark Act Section 2(d).  TMEP §704.02; see 15 U.S.C. §1052(d).  However, marks in prior-filed
`pending applications may present a bar to registration of applicant’s mark.
`
`Prior-Filed Pending Applications
`
`The filing dates of pending U.S. Application Serial Nos. 86906606, 87131367, and 87728632 precede applicant’s filing date.  See attached
`referenced applications.  If one or more of the marks in the referenced applications register, applicant’s mark may be refused registration under
`Trademark Act Section 2(d) because of a likelihood of confusion with the registered mark(s).  See 15 U.S.C. §1052(d); 37 C.F.R. §2.83; TMEP
`§§1208 et seq.  Therefore, upon receipt of applicant’s response to this Office action, action on this application may be suspended pending final
`disposition of the earlier-filed referenced applications.
`
`In response to this Office action, applicant may present arguments in support of registration by addressing the issue of the potential conflict
`between applicant’s mark and the marks in the referenced applications.  Applicant’s election not to submit arguments at this time in no way
`limits applicant’s right to address this issue later if a refusal under Section 2(d) issues.
`
`Identification of Goods and Services
`
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
`

`

`Applicant must clarify much of the wording in the identification of goods and services because it is indefinite and too broad.  See 37 C.F.R.
`§2.32(a)(6); TMEP §§1402.01, 1402.03.  This wording is indefinite because it does not make clear what the goods and services are.  Please see
`below for further guidance.
`
`Furthermore, the activities identified as “retail or wholesale services” in International Class 35 are indefinite and must be clarified because these
`services could include a wide array of retail and wholesale support services – from accounting to advertising and marketing services.  See 37
`
`C.F.R. §2.32(a)(6); TMEP §§1402.01, 1402.11.  
`
`If applicant’s retail services involve retail stores or outlets (online or brick-and-mortar), or distributorships, applicant should amend the
`identification to specify (1) the nature of the retail activity provided (e.g., retail stores, retail distributorships, online retail outlets), and (2) the
`field or type of goods offered through those retail services.  See TMEP §§1301.01(a)(ii), 1402.11.  Applicant must also amend the identification
`to specify the nature of the wholesale activity that applicant provides (e.g., wholesale distributorships, wholesale services by direct solicitation by
`sales agents, or wholesale store services).   If the services are in the nature of wholesale stores, direct solicitation, or distributorships, the
`
`identification should also indicate the field or type of goods offered through the wholesale services.   See TMEP §§1301.01(a)(ii), 1402.11.   
`
`Finally, applicant has included the term “ or” in the identification of goods and services.  However, this term is generally not accepted in
`identifications when (1) it is unclear whether applicant is using the mark, or intends to use the mark, on all the identified goods or services; (2)
`the nature of the goods and services is unclear; or (3) classification cannot be determined from such wording.  See TMEP §1402.03(a). An
`application must specify, in an explicit manner, the particular goods or services on or in connection with which the applicant uses, or has a bona
`fide intention to use, the mark in commerce.  See 15 U.S.C. §1051(a)(2), (b)(2); 37 C.F.R. §2.32(a)(6); TMEP §1402.01.  Therefore, applicant
`should replace “ or” with “ and” in the identification of goods or services, if appropriate, or rewrite the identification with the “ or” deleted and
`
`the goods or services specified using definite and unambiguous language.  
`Applicant may substitute the following wording, if accurate:  
`
`“ Metalworking machines and tools, namely, {indicate particular tools in this Class, e.g., saws and cutters}; metalworking machine
`using lasers; industrial robots for metalworking using laser; laser welding machines for metalworking; laser cutting machines for
`metalworking” in International Class 7; and/or
`
`“Electronic machines, apparatus and their parts, namely, {indicate particular machines in this Class, e.g., weighing machines}; distance
`measuring apparatus; measuring and testing machines and instruments, namely, {indicate particular machines and instruments in this
`Class, e.g., coordinate measuring machines, metal strength testing machines}” in International Class 9; and/or
`
`“ Advertising and publicity services; business management analysis and business consultancy; marketing research and analysis;
`providing information concerning commercial sales; publicity material rental; providing information on newspaper articles, namely,
`{indicate particular information in this Class, e.g., information about newspaper subscriptions}; retail store services and wholesale
`store services featuring metalworking machines and tools; retail store services and wholesale store services featuring distance
`measuring apparatus; retail store services and wholesale store services featuring electronic machines; retail store services and
`wholesale store services featuring electrical machinery and apparatus” in International Class 35; and/or
`
`“Providing information on newspaper articles, namely, {indicate particular information in this Class, e.g., information about
`newspaper delivery}” in International Class 39; and/or
`
`“Providing information on newspaper articles, namely, {indicate particular information in this Class, e.g., information about
`newspaper publishing}” in International Class 41.
`
`Applicant may amend the identification to clarify or limit the goods and services, but not to broaden or expand the goods and services beyond
`those in the original application or as acceptably amended.   See 37 C.F.R. §2.71(a); TMEP §1402.06.   Generally, any deleted goods and services
`may not later be reinserted.   See TMEP §1402.07(e).
`
`For assistance with identifying and classifying goods and services in trademark applications, please see the USPTO’s online searchable U.S.
`Acceptable Identification of Goods and Services Manual.   See TMEP §1402.04.
`
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
`

`

`Multiple-Class Application Advisory
`
`The application identifies goods and services in more than one international class; therefore, applicant must satisfy all the requirements below for
`each international class based on Trademark Act Section 1(b):
`
`(1)      
`
`(2)      
`
`List the goods and/or services by their international class number in consecutive numerical order, starting with the lowest
`numbered class.
`
`Submit a filing fee for each international class not covered by the fee(s) already paid (view the USPTO’s current fee schedule).  
`The application identifies goods and/or services that are classified in at least 5 classes; however, applicant submitted a fee(s) sufficient
`for only 3 class(es).   Applicant must either submit the filing fees for the classes not covered by the submitted fees or restrict the
`application to the number of classes covered by the fees already paid.
`
`See 15 U.S.C. §§1051(b), 1112, 1126(e); 37 C.F.R. §§2.32(a)(6)-(7), 2.34(a)(2)-(3), 2.86(a); TMEP §§1403.01, 1403.02(c).
`
`See an overview of the requirements for a Section 1(b) multiple-class application and how to satisfy the requirements online using the Trademark
`Electronic Application System (TEAS) form.
`
`Disclaimer
`
`Applicant must disclaim the wording “WELDING” because it merely describes an ingredient, quality, characteristic, function, feature, purpose,
`or use of applicant’s goods and services, and thus is an unregistrable component of the mark.  See 15 U.S.C. §§1052(e)(1), 1056(a); DuoProSS
`Meditech Corp. v. Inviro Med. Devices, Ltd., 695 F.3d 1247, 1251, 103 USPQ2d 1753, 1755 (Fed. Cir. 2012) (quoting In re Oppedahl & Larson
`
`LLP, 373 F.3d 1171, 1173, 71 USPQ2d 1370, 1371 (Fed. Cir. 2004)); TMEP §§1213, 1213.03(a).  
`
`Applicant’s goods encompass numerous metalworking tools and machines, including welding machines. Thus, the wording WELDING merely
`describes a feature or purpose of applicant’s goods and must be disclaimed.
`
`An applicant may not claim exclusive rights to terms that others may need to use to describe their goods and/or services in the marketplace.  See
`Dena Corp. v. Belvedere Int’l, Inc., 950 F.2d 1555, 1560, 21 USPQ2d 1047, 1051 (Fed. Cir. 1991); In re Aug. Storck KG, 218 USPQ 823, 825
`(TTAB 1983).  A disclaimer of unregistrable matter does not affect the appearance of the mark; that is, a disclaimer does not physically remove
`the disclaimed matter from the mark.  See Schwarzkopf v. John H. Breck, Inc., 340 F.2d 978, 978, 144 USPQ 433, 433 (C.C.P.A. 1965); TMEP
`
`§1213.  
`
`If applicant does not provide the required disclaimer, the USPTO may refuse to register the entire mark.  See In re Stereotaxis Inc., 429 F.3d
`1039, 1040-41, 77 USPQ2d 1087, 1088-89 (Fed. Cir. 2005); TMEP §1213.01(b).
`
`Applicant should submit a disclaimer in the following standardized format:
`
`No claim is made to the exclusive right to use “WELDING” apart from the mark as shown.
`
`For an overview of disclaimers and instructions on how to satisfy this disclaimer requirement online using the Trademark Electronic Application
`System (TEAS) form, please go to http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/law/disclaimer.jsp.
`
`  A
`
` prompt response to this Office action will expedite prosecution.

`hours of this e-mail notification.
`
`(2)  TIMELY RESPONSE IS REQUIRED:  Please carefully review the Office action to determine (1) how to respond, and (2) the applicable

`transmitted through the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS) must be received before midnight Eastern Time of the last day of the
`response period.   For information regarding response time periods, see http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/process/status/responsetime.jsp.

`more information regarding abandonment, see http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/basics/abandon.jsp.
`
`PRIVATE COMPANY SOLICITATIONS REGARDING YOUR APPLICATION:  Private companies not associated with the USPTO are
`using information provided in trademark applications to mail or e-mail trademark-related solicitations.  These companies often use names that
`
`  
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
` 
`

`

`closely resemble the USPTO and their solicitations may look like an official government document.  Many solicitations require that you pay
`
`“fees.”   
`
`Please carefully review all correspondence you receive regarding this application to make sure that you are responding to an official document
`from the USPTO rather than a private company solicitation.  All official USPTO correspondence will be mailed only from the “United States
`Patent and Trademark Office” in Alexandria, VA; or sent by e-mail from the domain “@uspto.gov.”   For more information on how to handle
`private company solicitations, see http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/solicitation_warnings.jsp.
