          Appeal No. 95-4897                                                          
          Application 08/242,806                                                      


          as a blueprint for piecing together elements in the prior art               
          to defeat the patentability of the claimed invention.   Such                
          an approach would be an illogical and inappropriate process by              
          which to determine patentability.  IN RE DENIS ROUFFET,  97-                
          1492 (Fed. Cir. decided July 15, 1998).                                     
               We have not sustained the rejection of claims 6 through                
          10 under 35 U.S.C. § 103.  Accordingly, the Examiner's                      
          decision is reversed.
