DEFINITION

Classification: 24/468

With separate flaccid flap or pocket for protecting structure-to-be-secured:

(under subclass 465) Clasp provided with an attached separate (i.e., nonintegral) piece or envelope of flaccid* material which is located between one of the gripping members and the structure-to-be-secured* to prevent injury to the structure-to-be-secured* by this gripping member when the members are coupled together.

(1) Note. The envelope may be an attached separate pocket of protective material in which a gripping member is inserted in a readily removable manner without requiring disassembly of the device before the gripping members are coupled together.

(2) Note. The separate flap or envelope does not conform to the specific shape of either gripping member's interlocking portions when in the uncoupled position (i.e., it is not a form fitted cavity or projection member covering).
