Appeal No. 1997-3172
Application 08/045,989
Cir. 1983), cert. denied, 469 U.S. 851 (1984); In re
Rothermel, 276 F.2d 393, 396, 125 USPQ 328, 331 (CCPA 1960).
For the above reasons, we find that the examiner has not
set forth a factual basis which is sufficient for supporting a
conclusion of obviousness of the invention recited in any of
appellants’ claims. Consequently, we reverse the examiner’s
rejections.
DECISION
The rejections of claims 1, 6, 7 and 12-15 under 35
U.S.C. § 103 over Flint or Hedgcoth, in view of Welty,
Bloomquist and Yazawa, are reversed.
