          Appeal No. 2003-1422                                                        
          Application 09/738,212                                                      


                    In sum, we affirm the rejection of claim 33 under                 
          35 U.S.C. § 112, second paragraph, and affirm the provisional               
          obviousness-type double patenting rejection of claims 21-30 and             
          33 based on copending Application No. 09/547,802.  We reverse the           
          provisional obviousness-type double patenting rejection based on            
          Application No. 09/690,400, now patented.  We vacate the                    
          provisional rejection of claims 21-30 and 33 under the judicially           
          created doctrine of obviousness-type double patenting as                    
          unpatentable over claims 1 and 2 of Application No. 09/650,512,             
          now abandoned.  We reverse the rejection of claims 21-30 and 33             
          under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as unpatentable over Orbán in view of                 
          Hauer.                                                                      












                                          10
