DEFINITION

Classification: 242/224

Axial unwinding (i.e., spinning reel):

(under subclass 223) Subject matter in which the line unwinds by spinning over a discharge end of a stationary spool.

(1) Note. Included in this and the indented subclasses are line winding and distributing mechanisms and brakes specifically designed for spinning reels. However, drive mechanisms including clutches, yieldable couplings and handles; frames, frame components and, unwinding limiters, etc., which are recited as subcombinations of nominally recited spinning reels are classified as subcombinations, per se, in subclasses 249+.

249, for a drive mechanism, per se

305, for an unwinding indicator

309, for an unwinding limiter

311, for a frame or frame component

322, for a spool or spool shaft feature, per se.
