Appeal No. 2002-1380
Application No. 08/786,270 Page 16
We turn next to the rejection of claims 58 and 74 under 35
U.S.C. § 103(a) as unpatentable over Thomas in view of Mischler
and Fisher. We reverse the rejection of claims 58 and 74 under
35 U.S.C. § 103(a) because Mischler and Fisher do not make up for
the basic deficiencies of Thomas.
CONCLUSION
To summarize, the decision of the examiner to reject claims
1-13, 15-27, 49-53, 59-61, and 66-73 under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) is
reversed. The decision of the examiner to reject claims 14, 28,
58, and 74-76 under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) is reversed.
