Appeal No. 1999-0313 Page 14
Application No. 08/918,089
Claims 55 to 62
Claims 55 to 62 depend from independent claim 54 and are
patentable over the applied prior art for the reason set forth
above with respect to claim 54. Thus, it follows that the6
decision of the examiner to reject claims 55 to 62 under
35 U.S.C. § 103 is also reversed.
6We have reviewed the references additionally applied in
the rejection of claims 59 and 62 (i.e., Hoffman and Miller)
but find nothing therein which makes up for the deficiencies
of Brown, Gerard and Reed discussed above with respect to
claim 54.
