DEFINITION

Classification: 24/706.6

Having operator for moving holding component or surface:

(under subclass 706.5) Directing, constraining, or shielding means having an operator* for moving either into or out of contact with the penetrating portion a part or surface segment of the means which constrains the motion of the penetrating portion when it is in contact therewith.

(1) Note. An operator* proper for this and the indented subclasses may also help to direct or shield the penetrating portion of the pin*. However, if it contacts and directly constrains the motion of the penetrating portion, it is not considered a proper operator* for this and the indented subclasses and is placed as a relatively movable constraining part elsewhere under subclasses 706.5.
