- Amendments introducing new features including the expressions "much nearer" which are based exclusively on the original drawings and which are isolated from other features derivable from said drawings extend the subject-matter beyond the content of the application as filed if, without said other features, the defined subject-matter is ambiguous and thus its features do not provide greater precision (c.f. T 0169/93, OJ EPO 1985, 193).
ORDER
For these reasons it is decided that:
1. The decision under appeal is set aside.
2. The main request is rejected.
3. The case is remitted to the first instance with the order to maintain the patent according to the first auxiliary request, i.e. with Claims 1 to 6 as presented during the oral proceedings of 7 June 1994 and the description and drawings as granted.
