DEFINITION

Classification: 242/305

With unwinding indicator (e.g., bell or flashing light):

(under subclass 223) Subject matter having means to signal spool rotation or resistance to rotation.

(1) Note. Devices appropriate for original placement in this and the indented subclasses should themselves produce no more than nominal coupling or braking effect. A patent for a face clutch whose teeth emit a chattering sound upon relative slippage, or an adjustable force pawl providing significant retarding effect would be classified in subclasses 264 and 296, respectively.
