Appeal No. 1998-0693
Application No. 08/387,583
the examiner made a prima facie case with respect to claims 6, 11, 17, 21, 27 and 32
which contain similar limitations but are more detailed than claim 1. Therefore, we cannot
sustain the rejection of claims 1-36.
CONCLUSION
To summarize, the decision of the examiner to reject claims 1-36 under 35 U.S.C. §
103(a) is reversed.
