DEFINITION

Classification: 100/1

(under the class definition) Methods and apparatus for use in disposing a flexible binder tightly and circumferentially closed around the material.

(1) Note. The flexible binder is in the form of a filament, strand or band.

(2) Note. Binder chains or wires or cords, per se, or with a binder tightener which stays with the binder member will be found in another class (for which see the Search Class Notes below) Where a tightening device is supported from the ground or from a material penetrating element and is claimed in combination with a cord, which the tightener tensions about the material the device will be found in this class, in another subclass (see the search This Class, Subclass notes below)

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

212, for presses in which the material is compressed within a bendable filament, strand or band by contracting it around the material by endwise pulling. See (2) Note above.

SEE OR SEARCH CLASS

24, Buckles, Buttons, Clasps, etc., 16+, for binder chains or wires or cords, per se, or with a binder tightener which stays with the binder; see particularly subclass 18 for cords for binding. and subclass 19 for binder members with tighteners.

29, Metal Working,

243.57+, for a means not classified here or elsewhere, to assemble a metal strip over an edge of an article to form a binding or covering therefor.

53, Package Making,

135, for combined packaging in sheet material and binding and subclasses 582+ for apparatus for applying band type covers. See the class definition of Class 53, for banding elsewhere classified.

56, Harvesters,

22, for devices which have a motor for driving a portion of the apparatus and having means to cut, convey and bind grain, subclasses 131+, for harvesters which cut, convey and bind grain, subclasses 341+, for devices for raking hay, straw, and the like and securing it in a bundle, as by binding, subclasses 401+, for shock tying harvesters, and subclasses 432+ for devices for compressing and binding grain.

452, Butchering,

48, for devices which wrap a binding member between successive portions of stuffed casing to form sausage links.
