          Appeal No. 1998-2761                                                        
          Application No. 08/586,587                                                  


               Claims 11 and 9 also contain at least the same limitation              
          as claim 1.  Therefore, we do not sustain the obviousness                   
          rejection of claims 11 and 9 for the same rationale.                        
               In conclusion, the Examiner’s decision rejecting claims                
          1, 9 and 11 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is reversed.
