DEFINITION

Classification: 198/510.1

Power-driven feed means:

(under subclass 506) Device wherein the particularizing means includes a driven-load transferring device which is located at the entrance to a conveying section, and which acts on the material on the static support to compel the material onto the section.

(1) Note. A feeding means is an apparatus which is structurally similar to a conveying section, but which assumes an ancillary role due to its position with respect to the section served. It is present merely to enhance or improve the operation of the section served.
