DEFINITION

Classification: 24/664

Requiring manual force applied against bias to interlock or disengage:

(under subclass 662) Receiving member wherein the resiliently biased component or segment is intended to be moved either into or out of its normal interlocking position by manual force applied directly to the biased component or segment in a direction opposite to that of the biasing force on this component or segment.

(1) Note. To be proper for this and the indented subclasses it is required that the direction of this manual force for moving the resiliently biased component or component segment be always applied at an angle to the direction of travel of the projection member during its final stage of association with the receiving member.
