Appeal No. 96-2457 Application 08/171,149 the movable nature of the pivoted cutoff sheet (26) in Murphy and/or the shutter (15) of Kang, there would appear to be no reason why one of ordinary skill in the art would even consider fixing the inner end of the cutoff sheet in Murphy or shutter of Kang in the manner suggested in Wood. Accordingly, the rejection of claims 3 through 7, 13 and 15 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 will likewise not be sustained. In light of the foregoing, the decision of the examiner is reversed.
