DEFINITION

Classification: 206/37

FOR POCKET OR PERSONAL USE:

(under the class definition) A container which is so constructed or configured that it is conveniently carried in the pocket or otherwise on the person of a user.

(1) Note. A great many of the containers classified in this (206) class are "small" and can be considered as for pocket or personal use. In part, the rules of subclass schedule superiority have resulted in patents to such containers falling into subclasses higher in the schedule. Only a representative sample of those patents have had a cross reference placed in subclasses 37+ and 38+. Therefore, a full search for features considered of import with respect to size must include such higher subclasses.
