Appeal No. 96-3106
Application 08/052,015
36. The two electrodes, 48 and 50 are electrically isolated
from each other, and are supported by the central electrode
structure comprising of 74 and 76. As for claim 19, it calls
for no additional features than claim 18, and in fact leaves
out some.
Therefore, we affirm the rejection of claims 18 and 19 under
35 U.S.C. § 103 over Sutrina and Granberg.
In conclusion, the rejections of claim 19 under the first
and the second paragraphs of 35 U.S.C. § 112 are not
sustained. The rejection of claims 1 through 9, 18 and 19
under 35 U.S.C.
§ 103 over Sutrina and Granberg is sustained with respect to
claims 1, 2, 6 through 9, 18 and 19, but is not sustained with
respect to claims 3, 4 and 5. Therefore, the decision of the
Examiner rejecting claims 1 through 9, 18 and 19 is affirmed-
in-part.
No time period for taking any subsequent action in
connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR
§ 1.136(a).
