DEFINITION

Classification: 242/396.5

Friction:

(under subclass 396) Subject matter wherein the retarding device is adapted to contact and rub against an element induced to move as a consequence of unwinding of the elongated material, which element may be the spool, winding member, the elongated material, or structure movable with these elements.

(1) Note. This subclass serves to collect friction brakes applied to a running material, rotatable wrapping guide, or transmission structure remote from a spool.
