2. Statement motivated according to articles 29.6 and 29.7 of the Regulations for the execution of Law 11/1986, of March 20, on Patents on novelty and inventive activity; quotes and explanations in support of this statement

The present invention relates to a safe.

Document D01 is the most representative of the prior art. Said document, in relation to the Claim 1 refers to (references in parentheses correspond to document D01): “Safety box comprising an essentially cubic body (2), closed on all sides except for one in the which incorporates a door (3) characterized in that said body (2) and said door (3) are joined by means of bolts (4,5) as a hinge; and where, the door (3) incorporates, in turn, a closure (19-21) activated by at least two electronic opening (37.38) and closing (39.40) circuits that will activate or deactivate the closing ”. Said document D01 differs from the object of claim 1 of the application, in that both the bolts (4,5) and the closure (19-21), are hydraulic and non-pneumatic systems.

Document D02 consists of a security system for doors, for example safety boxes. Said system It consists of bolts, preferably tires that are activated and deactivated through a compressor. How can observe on page 4, lines 18-19 of this document, it is indicated that the fluid used in the safety system can Be both pneumatic and hydraulic. In view of the above, the use of hydraulic or pneumatic systems in this type of gearboxes can be considered Security is an obvious choice for an expert in the field. Therefore, it can be stated that it is obvious to a person skilled in the art, the combination of documents D01 and D02 for achieving the technical characteristics of claim 1. Therefore, said claim is novel, but it lacks inventive activity, Art. 8 Law 11/1986 on Patents.

In relation to claim 2, it is specified that the pneumatic closure is composed of at least one polyester latch fiberglass reinforced. There are some documents, such as document D03 that refer to safety boxes that use fiberglass as a component (column 8, lines 30-34), but none of the documents cited, alone or in combination with each other They use polyester fiberglass reinforced latches. Therefore, it is considered that claim 2 enjoys novelty and inventive activity, Art. 6, 8 Law 11/1986 of Patents

Claim 3 refers to the body incorporating a plurality of outward plates. It is considered that the use of outward plates in the body of a safety box to facilitate its clamping in the hole intended for placement, it is an obvious feature in the state of the art related to security boxes. Therefore, since said claim 3 is dependent on claim 1, it is considered that like this one, the Claim 3 lacks inventive activity, Art. 8, Law 11/1986 on Patents.

Claim 4 relates to the fact that the box is powered by a compressor adjacent to the box and connected to a automaton through a plurality of solenoid valves. This characteristic can be seen in document D02, page 8, line 35-page 9, line 14. In view of the foregoing, it can be said that claim 4, dependent on claim 1, is novel but It lacks inventive activity, Art. 8 Law 11/1986.

Finally, claim 5 refers to the door being opened by a mobile application that sends a signal encoded to an automaton. The opening of security doors through mobile applications is widely known by a person skilled in the art in the state of the art related to safe deposit boxes, therefore, it considers that this claim lacks inventive activity, Art. 8, Law 11/1986 on Patents.
