Appeal No. 1995-4366 Page 12
Application No. 08/150,744
For the foregoing reasons, the examiner fails to
establish a prima facie case of obviousness. Therefore, we
reverse the rejection of independent claim 169 and its
dependent claims 170-175 and of independent claim 184 and its
dependent claim 185.
CONCLUSION
To summarize, the examiner’s rejection of claim 177 under
35 U.S.C. § 102 is affirmed. Her rejection of claims 169-175
and 178-185 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is reversed.
No period for taking subsequent action concerning this
appeal may be extended under 37 C.F.R. § 1.136(a).
