          Application 08/314,146                                                      


          (Sweden)                                                                    

               The following rejections are before us for review.4                    


               Claims 1, 3 through 10, 12, and 24 stand rejected under                
          35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over Chang in view of                 
          Handels.                                                                    


               Claim 2 stands rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being                 
          unpatentable over Chang in view of Handels, as applied to                   
          claim 1 above, further in view of Summons.                                  


               Claims 15 through 21 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103              
          as being unpatentable over Chang in view of Handels and                     
          Loucony.                                                                    


               Claims 22 and 23 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as               
          being unpatentable over Chang in view of Handels, as applied                
          to claims 1 and 9 above, further in view of Hutton.                         

               4A final rejection under 35 U.S.C. § 112, second paragraph, argued in the brief
          (page 7), was not included in the answer, obviously in light of the entry of the
          amendment after final rejection (Paper No. 12).                             
                                          3
