Appeal No. 97-3070
Application 08/584,097
we are satisfied that the above-noted declarations fall far
short of establishing long-felt need.
When all the evidence and argument are considered anew it
is our conclusion that, on balance, the evidence and argument
presented by the appellant, taken as a whole, fails to out-
weigh he evidence of obviousness established by the prior art.
See, Newell Cos. v. Kenney Mfg. Co., 864 F.2d 757, 768, 9
USPQ2d 1417, 1426 (Fed. Cir. 1988) and In re Beattie, 974 F.2d
1309, 1313,
24 USPQ2d 1040, 1043 (Fed. Cir. 1992).
All of the examiner's rejections under 35 U.S.C. § 103
are affirmed.
No time period for taking any subsequent action in
connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR
§ 1.136(a)
AFFIRMED
