Appeal No. 1996-2822
Application 08/153,916
Examiner rejects claims 8 and 19 through 23 under 35 U.S.C. §
103 over Kondo and claims 6, 9 through 13 and 18 under 35
U.S.C. § 103 over Kondo in view of Egusa. In the Examiner's
answer, the Examiner only maintains that claims 6 and 9
through 13 are rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being
unpatentable over Kondo in view of Egusa.
The Examiner provides several new grounds of
rejection in the Examiner's answer. In particular, claims 1
through 5, 7 and 14 through 17 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C.
§ 103 as being unpatentable over Kondo. Claim 8 stands
rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over
Kondo in view of Miyatake. Claim 18 is rejected under 35
U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable
over Kondo in view of Egusa. Claims 19 through 22 stand
rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over
Kondo in view of Kanno. Claim 23 stands rejected under 35
U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over Kondo in view of
Murphy.
