DEFINITION

Classification: 102/501

PROJECTILES:

(under the class definition) Apparatus and corresponding

methods having a projectile or payload which is to be propelled through air or water.

(1) Note. Subcombination specialized to projectiles not provided for elsewhere are in this or indented subclasses.

(2) Note. Where the disclosure is silent to the type of propelling means for the projectile and the projectile structure is not unique to explosive propulsion, the device is classified with the nonexplosively propelled aerial devices in Class 273, Amusement Devices: Games.

(3) Note. Where the projectile is claimed with no significant projectile structure but merely in terms of the composition or material of which it is composed, it will be classified in the appropriate composition or material class.

(4) Note. A projectile is a missile or payload for these subclasses.

106, Compositions: Coating or Plastic, note particularly the class definition for the type of composition within the scope of Class 106.

148, Metal Treatment, particularly

400+, for materials which are products of processes of treating metals classifiable in Class 148, or for products distinguished only by the internal structure or characteristics of the metals, metallic compositions, or alloys comprising such structures.

260, Chemistry of Carbon Compounds,

2.01+, for compositions containing a synthetic resin; and subclasses 709+ for compositions containing a natural rubber.

273, Amusement Devices: Games,

317+, for aerial devices nonexplosively propelled.

420, Alloys or Metallic Compositions for articles defined solely by their metal or alloy composition.

428, Stock Material or Miscellaneous Articles,

542.8, and 577+ for an article of intermediate shape.
