Appeal No. 96-1739
Application 08/227,301
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, the arguments
in support of the rejections and the evidence of obviousness
relied upon by the examiner as support for the obviousness
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 answer.
It is our view, after consideration of the record
before us, that claims 25 and 28-35 particularly point out the
invention in a manner which complies with 35 U.S.C. § 112. We
are also of the view 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
