Appeal No. 1997-2975
Application 08/518,856
The following rejections are before us for review.
Claims 20, 2, 9, and 11 through 16 stand rejected under
35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over Hawthorne in view
of either Ridenour or Rudick, in view of Donkin, Walker, and
Cooper, and further in view of Swiss ‘714 and Yetter.3
Claims 3 through 7 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103
as being unpatentable over Hawthorne in view of Rudick, in
view of Donkin, Walker, and Cooper, and further in view of
Swiss ‘714 and Yetter.
Claim 8 stands rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being
unpatentable over Hawthorne in view of Ridenour, in view of
Donkin, Walker, and Cooper, and further in view of Swiss ‘714
and Yetter.
3We have included the Cooper document in this statement
of the rejection since Cooper was discussed by the examiner in
the body of the rejection (answer, pages 5 through 7) but was
obviously inadvertently omitted from the statement thereof.
