DEFINITION

Classification: 228/141.1

With shaping:

(under subclass 101) Process including in addition to fusion bonding, physically shaping the parts bonded either before, during, or after the bonding operation.

(1) Note. "Shaping" of the subclass is intended to describe the physical act of permanently altering the form, configuration, dimensions, proportions, or contour of a part either with or without the removal of material.

(2) Note. Effecting a bonded joint utilizing pressure that shapes the work parts in the vicinity of the bond is not considered shaping for this subclass. For example, roll bonding in which there is substantial reduction of the parts is not included in this and the indented subclasses unless there is shaping remote from the bonding operation.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

235.2+, for roll bonding in which there is significant shaping of the parts in the vicinity of the bond, but no remote shaping claimed.

156, Adhesive Bonding and Miscellaneous Chemical Manufacture,

196+, for a process of permanently bending or reshaping or embossing of self-sustaining lamina combined with lamination by nonmetallurgical bonding.

219, Electric Heating,

149+, and 602+ for electrical heating of metal combined with the shaping thereof.

413, Sheet Metal Container Making

1+, for a process of soldering, brazing or welding combined with shaping of sheet metal parts at other than the areas to be joined for making particular products, e.g., automobile radiator making and can making.
