Appeal No. 1997-2708
Application No. 08/337,204
cannot sustain the obviousness rejection of claims 75, 91,
118, and 147.
Regarding the obviousness rejection of claims 31, 37, and
38 over Sparrow and Kimizu, Kimizu does not cure the
deficiencies of Sparrow. Therefore, we cannot sustain the
obviousness rejection of claims 31, 37, and 38.
CONCLUSION
The decision of the examiner rejecting claims 28 through
30, 33 through 36, 70, 72 through 74, 78 through 80, 83, 84,
88 through 90, 92, 117, 141 through 146, 148 through 150, and
157 under 35 U.S.C. § 102 is reversed. The decision of the
examiner rejecting claims 31, 37, 38, 75, 91, 118, and 147
under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is reversed.
