Appeal No. 2006-0468
Application 09/885,395
Accordingly, based on our consideration of the totality of the record before us, we have
weighed the evidence of obviousness found in the combined teachings of Stahl and Silver and as
further combined with Bingham with appellants’ countervailing evidence of and argument for
nonobviousness and conclude that the claimed invention encompassed by appealed claims 19
through 30 would have been obvious as a matter of law under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a).
The examiner’s decision is affirmed.
No time period for taking any subsequent action in connection with this appeal may be
extended under 37 CFR § 1.136(a)(1)(iv) (2005).
AFFIRMED
