          Appeal No. 1998-0976                                                        
          Application 08/379,722                                                      



          recognizes the problem of electrical static charge building up              
          between the base covering and the flexible jacket covering.                 
          Furthermore, upon our review of Schwöpfinger, we fail to find               
          that Schwöpfinger supplies this missing piece as well.                      
                    In view of the foregoing, we have not sustained                   
          the rejection of claims 1 through 15 and 20 through 47 under                
          35 U.S.C. § 103.  Accordingly, the Examiner's decision is                   
          reversed.
