Appeal No. 98-0608 Page 7
Application No. 08/413,284
102 rejection with regard to claim 16 are not alleviated by
evaluating Alvord in the light of the test for obviousness,2
or by considering the additional teachings of Wiederkehr. We
therefore will not sustain this rejection.
SUMMARY
None of the rejections are sustained.
The decision of the examiner is reversed.
2The test for obviousness is what the combined teachings
of the prior art would have suggested to one of ordinary skill
in the art. See In re Keller, 642 F.2d 413, 425, 208 USPQ
871, 881 (CCPA 1981).
