          Appeal No. 1998-3043                                                        
          Application 08/667,587                                                      

          examiner has not set forth a prima facie case of obviousness                
          with respect to claims 10, 12 and 34.  The rejection of claims              
          10, 12 and 34 cannot be sustained.                                          
                                    Conclusion                                       
               The rejection of claims 7-10, 12-17, and 25-35 under                   
          35 U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over Tanaka and Chen is               
          reversed.
