          Appeal No. 1999-0134                                                       
          Application 08/590,695                                                     


          7. Claim 26 stands rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as                       
          being unpatentable over the teachings of Aihara in view of                 
          Mannle and further in view of Millman.                                     
          8. Claims 19 and 20 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. §                       
          103 as being unpatentable over the teachings of Aihara in view             
          of Mannle and further in view of Fukui.                                    
          Rather than repeat the arguments of appellants or the                      
          examiner, we make reference to the briefs and the answer for               
          the respective details thereof.                                            
          OPINION                                                                    
          We have carefully considered the subject matter on                         
          appeal, the rejections advanced by the examiner and the                    
          evidence of obviousness relied upon by the examiner as support             
          for the rejections.  We have, likewise, reviewed and taken                 
          into consideration, in reaching our decision, the appellants’              
          arguments set forth in the briefs along with the examiner’s                
          rationale in support of the rejections and arguments in                    
          rebuttal set forth in the examiner’s answer.                               
          It is our view, after consideration of the record                          
          before us, that the evidence relied upon and the level of                  
          skill in the particular art would not have suggested to one of             
                                         -4-
