DEFINITION

Classification: 239/652

(under subclass 650) Apparatus in which the strewing means comprises a member from the end of which the material is strewn, the member being disclosed as intended to strew material by being manually moved relative to the body of a person manipulating the member, movement being caused without the use of a mechanism comprising relatively moving parts.

(1) Note. The member, of and by itself, is not necessarily a strewing means under the definition of subclass 650. The manually caused motion to cause strewing is sufficient to qualify under the definition. The manual motion must be intended to be of considerable extent to effect a substantial strewing.
