          Appeal No. 1997-2110                                                        
          Application No. 08/143,687                                                  


               Rather than reiterate the arguments of Appellants and the              
          Examiner, reference is made to the Brief and Answer for the                 
          respective details.                                                         







                                       OPINION                                        
               We have carefully considered the subject matter on                                                                     
          appeal, the rejections advanced by the Examiner, the arguments              
          in support of the rejections and the evidence of obviousness                
          relied upon by the Examiner as support for the rejections.  We              
          have, likewise, reviewed and taken into consideration, in                   
          reaching our decision, Appellants’ arguments set forth in the               
          Brief along with the Examiner’s rationale in support of the                 
          rejections and arguments in rebuttal set forth in the                       
          Examiner’s Answer.                                                          
               It is our view, after consideration of the record before               
          us, that the evidence relied upon and the level of skill in                 
          the particular art would not have suggested to one of ordinary              
          skill in the art the obviousness of the invention set forth in              
                                          4
