Claim 1 stands rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as

rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as unpatentable over Kikuchi and

Rather than repeat the arguments of Appellants or the
Examiner, we make reference to the briefs and the answer for the 4
details thereof.
2Our understanding of this reference is based on an English
translation thereof prepared by the United States Patent and
Trademark Office. A copy of that translation is attached hereto.
3The final rejection of claims 5, 10 and 11 under 35 U.S.C.
102 has been withdrawn by the examiner and forms no part of the
appeal herein.
4Appellants filed an appeal brief on October 27, 1994. We
will refer to this appeal brief as simply the brief. Appellants
filed a reply appeal brief on March 22, 1995. We will refer to
this reply appeal brief as the reply brief. The Examiner stated
in the Examiner’s letter mailed April 3, 1995 that the reply
brief has been entered and considered but no further response by
the Examiner is deemed necessary.
