HASTINGS, Chief Judge.
This is a suit for infringement of plaintiff’s United States Patent No. 2,-673,805, issued on March 30, 1954, on application filed March 2, 1953, to Tip Top Products Company as assignee of Benjamin W. Coleman. The district court held the single claim of this patent to be valid and infringed.
The district court further held that defendants were not guilty of unfair competition and that there had been no willful appropriation of plaintiff’s patent giving rise to the recovery of treble damages under 35 U.S.C.A. § 284.
This appeal is solely from that part of the judgment…
