          Application 08/543,057                                                      


          a sunshield simply would not have been obvious based upon the               
          applied art.                                                                


               In summary, this panel of the board has:                               


               reversed the rejection of claims 1 and 14 under 35 U.S.C.              
          § 102(b) as being clearly anticipated by Moll;                              


               reversed the rejection of claims 4, 9, and 10 under                    
          35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as being unpatentable over Moll; and                     


               reversed the rejection of claims 1 through 4, 10, and 14               
          through 16 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over                 
          Kim in view of Romano, but affirmed the rejection of claims 9,              
          12, and 13 on this same ground.                                             





               The decision of the examiner is affirmed-in-part.                      
               No time period for taking subsequent action in connection              
          with this appeal may be extended under 37 C.F.R. § 1.136(a).                
                                          9
