          Appeal No. 1999-1854                                                        
          Application No. 08/633,616                                                  


               For the above reasons, it is our opinion that, since all               
          of the claimed limitations are not disclosed by Fujii, the                  
          Examiner’s 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) rejection of independent claims               
          1, 9, 13, and 21, as well as claims 2-8, 10-12, and 14-20                   
          dependent thereon, cannot be sustained.  Therefore, the                     
          decision of the Examiner rejecting claims 1-21 is reversed.                 


                                      REVERSED
