          Appeal No. 96-1893                                                          
          Application 08/073,416                                                      



          the "increase in distance" between the main and slide chassis               
          can be read as either horizontal or vertical distance                       
          therebetween.  We, therefore, sustain the rejection of claims               
          11 and 22.                                                                  




               In view of the foregoing, the decision of the Examiner                 
          rejecting claims 2 through 6, 8 through 10, and 12 through 21               
          under 35 U.S.C. § 102 is reversed; however, the decision of                 
          the Examiner rejecting claims 11 and 22 under 35 U.S.C. § 102               
          is affirmed; and the decision of the Examiner rejecting claim               
          23 under 35 U.S.C. § 112 is affirmed.                                       
               No time period for taking any subsequent action in                     
          connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR                    
          § 1.136(a).                                                                 
                                 AFFIRMED-IN-PART                                     








                                          11
