DEFINITION

Classification: 119/741

Having longitudinally slidable actuating mechanism:

(under subclass 739) Subject matter wherein one of the sets of upright members includes a linearly translating activating means which causes one of the upright members to move into or out of an animal contacting position.

(1) Note. While only one of the upright members for one of

the stanchions needs to be actuated by the mechanism, the mechanism usually actuates at least one of the upstanding shafts for all of the stanchions.
