- A feature added to an independent claim after the priority date and not constituting an essential element of the invention but a voluntary limitation of the scope of that claim does not invalidate the priority claimed (point 3.1).
One feature of a dependent claim can be combined with a preceding independent claim if there is clearly no close functional or structural relationship between the one feature of that dependent claim and its other features or between that one feature and the teaching of other dependent claims referred to in that dependent claim (point 2.2). - Affaires citées
