          Appeal No. 2000-1234                                       Page 9           
          Application No. 08/911,442                                                  


               Here, bin 6c is not limited to accommodating only one                  
          cassette.  To the contrary, Figure 1 of Sato shows that the                 
          bin accommodates three cassettes.  Therefore, we reverse the                
          rejection of independent claim 11 and of claims 12, 16, and                 
          17, which depend therefrom.                                                 




                                     CONCLUSION                                       
               In summary, the rejection of claims 1, 4, 5, and 8-10                  
          under § 103(a) is reversed.  Likewise, the rejection of claims              
          11, 12, 16, and 17 under § 102(e) is also reversed.
