The UCTE report said it was triggered by a trip of the Mettlen-Lavorgo line in Switzerland, when a tree hit it during a storm at 3 : 01 a . m . Due to high loads on remaining lines, an automatic device intended to protect the line blocked attempts to bring it back in service.

Thus, in " Cuno Engineering Corp . v . Automatic Devices Corp . " in 1941, the Court veered away from " Hotchkiss " to invalidate an automatic cigarette lighter for cars that used a thermostat to pop out the lighter so that the user did not have to hold it in place in the socket until it heated sufficiently.

One notable example of this struggle is the 1941 US Supreme Court case of " Cuno Engineering v . Automatic Devices Corp . ", which was said to establish the Flash of Genius doctrine as a test of patentability of an invention : " the new device must reveal the flash of creative genius, not merely the skill of the calling ".

The doctrine was formalized in " Cuno Engineering v . Automatic Devices ", which held that the inventive act had to come into the mind of an inventor in a " flash of genius " and not as a result of tinkering . " The new device, however useful it may be, must reveal the flash of creative genius, not merely the skill of the calling.
