DEFINITION

Classification: 242/478.3

By relatively reciprocating ring rail having an orbital guide:

(under subclass 476.7) Subject matter in which the traversing mechanism includes (1) a circular trackway that reciprocates relative to the take-up parallel to its axis and (2) a guide constrained to slide along the trackway for engaging and causing the shifting of the material along the take-up.
