          Appeal No. 96-2741                                                            
          Application 08/227,093                                                        

                                      CONCLUSION                                        
               Upon consideration of appellants' request for rehearing,                 
          we have denied the request with respect to making any changes                 
          in our decision regarding the rejections of claim 11 over                     
          Kotitalo and over Watanabe, and the rejections of claim 15                    
          over Kotitalo and over Watanabe and Takagi, but we have                       
          modified our decision to the extent that the rejection of                     
          claims 11 and 13 over Umezawa is now reversed.  Accordingly,                  
          the request for rehearing has been granted-in-part and the                    
          original decision is modified.                                                
               No time period for taking any subsequent action in                       
          connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR                      
          § 1.136(a).                                                                   
                                    GRANTED-IN-PART
