DEFINITION

Classification: 192/70.16

(under subclass 70.11) Device provided with means which (a) transmits rotational force from an input shaft to a member supported thereby, or transmits rotational force from another member to an output shaft that supports the other member, and (b) simultaneously permits movement of either member relative to its supporting shaft.

(1) Note. It is emphasized that this and indented subclasses provide for the connection between a shaft and the clutch-element supported thereby, rather than for the means transmitting rotation from one clutch-element to a mating clutch-element. The permitted movement may be rotational as in subclass 70.17 below, or axially slidable as in subclass 70.19 below, or oscillating about an axis perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the shafts as in this subclass (70.16).
