.~.~.~ Alternative energy supply (e.g., solar panel, thermoelectric or piezoelectric power supply, etc.)
DEFINITION
Classification: 204/196.27
Alternative energy supply (e.g., solar panel, thermoelectric or piezoelectric power supply, etc.):
(under subclass 196.01) Apparatus having a power supply for electrolytic current other than an electric battery (wet or dry cell), an electrolytic fuel cell, or an electric dynamo or generator turned by heated fluid from a boiler fired by fossil fuel (e.g., solar panel, thermoelectric or piezoelectric power supply, etc.).
(1) Note. This subclass is intended to provide for an electrolytic object protection apparatus in which electrolytic current is supplied (at least in part) by an energy conversion device other than those commonly used in this art. Placement in this subclass is limited to cases in which an alternative energy supply is clearly specified in the claimed disclosure.
