DEFINITION

Classification: 239/566

(under subclass 548) Apparatus in which the plural openings extend along a straight line lying entirely within the surface of the terminal outlet member.

(1) Note. This subclass is residual with respect to subclass 266 and contains a collection of what has come to be known as terminal flow line members characterized by their being readily manipulable, or by apertures being unitarily arranged in a terminal flow member. The presence of a handle or arrangement for manipulation is a good indication for this subclass.

(2) Note. If the outlets are formed in a tubular conduit, they must lie along the longitudinal axis of the conduit. Outlets formed in a straight line around the curved face will be found elsewhere (see search notes below)

266+, appropriate subclasses for outlets arranged in a single

straight line in members adapted to be longitudinally joined or coupled to each other.

567, for outlets formed in a straight line around the curved face (see (2) Note, above).
