Text: 12 Illustrations of the three aluminum pans alleged to infringe claims 17-20 are provided below: 13 NOTE: OPINION CONTAINS TABLE OR OTHER DATA THAT IS NOT VIEWABLE 14 NOTE: OPINION CONTAINS TABLE OR OTHER DATA THAT IS NOT VIEWABLE 15 As is evident, the handles in each of the accused pans are not fastened directly to the rim of the pan. In the Handi-Foil and PCA structures, the handles are integral with underlying support wires, which are in turn attached to a lateral cross-piece (i.e., running perpendicular to the underlying support wires). It is the lateral cross-piece, not the handles, which is attached to the rim in these pans. In Reynolds' two-piece unit having a removable reusable rack, the handles are part of the removable rack and are not fastened to the rim at all. Rather, the rack is removably connected to the pan by way of a clamp-like member.
