(under subclass 349) Apparatus having means associated therewith for performing some function in addition to the basic operation of bonding parts together and not provided for in the preceding subclasses or in which, by relative rearrangement of its parts or by the addition of or omission of a part, the apparatus is changed so as to become: (a) basic subject matter of this class (156) of a different character or having a different mode of operation or, (b) basic subject matter of another class; thus, for example, a laminating device which, by disabling or removing a part, becomes a mere dispenser, etc.., is subject matter for this subclass.
(1) Note. Bonding means includes means assembling parts into relationship for bonding, applying bonding pressure, heating or cooling to perfect the bond and application of adhesive bonding material.
(2) Note. The class definition in Section IIB sets forth the locus of various combinations of laminating and other devices.
