Appeal No. 95-0884
Application 07/805,098
Claims 1-10 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103. In the
final rejection, the evidence of obviousness was Torii in view of
Camras. In a new additional rejection made in the examiner’s
answer, the evidence of obviousness was Torii in view of Camras
and Steltzer.
Rather than repeat the arguments of appellant or the
examiner, we make reference to the briefs and the answers 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 appellant’s
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 answers.
It is our view, after consideration of the record before
us, that the collective evidence relied upon and the level of
skill in the particular art would not have suggested to one of
ordinary skill in the art the obviousness of the invention as set
forth in claims 1-10. Accordingly, we reverse.
