Appeal No. 1997-2834 Application No. 08/190,729 lines 12-23, and column 4, line 65 to column 5, line 8 of Levine ‘796 and figures 2 and 3, column 2, lines 33-43, and column 5, lines 22-33 of Levine ‘958). Therefore, we cannot agree with the examiner that the combined teachings of the admitted prior art and Levine ‘796 or Levine ‘958 would have led one of ordinary skill in the art to arrive at the subject matter of the appealed claims, absent the benefit of the appellant’s own disclosure. The decision of the examiner is reversed. REVERSED EDWARD C. KIMLIN ) Administrative Patent Judge ))))) BOARD OF PATENT BRADLEY R.
