          Appeal No. 1998-1901                                                        
          Application 08/506,804                                                      


          § 103 as being unpatentable over the teachings of Miyatake in               
          view of Cadet.                                                              
          Rather than repeat the arguments of appellant or the                        
          examiner, we make reference to the briefs and the answer for                
          the respective details thereof.                                             




          OPINION                                                                     
          We have carefully considered the subject matter on                          
          appeal, the rejections advanced by the examiner and the                     
          evidence of anticipation and obviousness relied upon by the                 
          examiner as support for the prior art rejections.  We have,                 
          likewise, reviewed and taken into consideration, in reaching                
          our decision, the appellant’s arguments set forth in the                    
          briefs along with the examiner’s rationale in support of the                
          rejections and arguments in rebuttal set forth in the                       
          examiner’s answer.                                                          
          It is our view, after consideration of the record                           
          before us, that claim 14 is in compliance with the second                   
          paragraph of 35 U.S.C. § 112.  We are also of the view that                 
          none of the claims on appeal is properly rejected based on the              
                                         -4-
