Appeal No. 1998-0080 Application No. 08/177,763 argued by appellants, however, even the improper modification of the admitted prior art by the teachings of Schmidt would not result in the invention of claim 1. In summary, we do not sustain the examiner’s rejection of claims 1-7 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 based on the admitted prior art and Schmidt. Therefore, the decision of the examiner rejecting claims 1-7 is reversed. 9Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
