DEFINITION

Classification: 119/858

Having or specifically adapted to support a diverse element other than restraint or protective shield (e.g., ID tag, reflector, bell, etc.):

(under subclass 856) Subject matter wherein the collar or band (i.e., collar) is combined with an additional element other than a controlling, handling, or protective shield means, or includes means specifically constructed to support such an additional element on the collar.

(1) Note. If a collar or band is nominally recited in combination with a diverse element, and the diverse element combined with a body support is provided for elsewhere, classification is proper where the diverse element plus body support is located. However, when a detail of a collar- or body-encircling band found in this class is present, classification of a collar or band in combination with a diverse element is proper in this class.
