DEFINITION

Classification: 242/249

With drive mechanism:

(under subclass 223) Subject matter wherein the drive device includes a force input means, e.g., crank, motor, or externally driven shaft, and connecting means to apply or regulate the transfer of force, i.e., torque, to the take-up member.

(1) Note. This subclass is the locus for drive mechanisms employing shock absorbers, and spool drive mechanism

providing irregular line take-up rates.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

317, for a reel whose drive device is an element, e.g., a knob, fixed directly to the spool or a sleeve of the spool.
