DEFINITION

Classification: 264/69

(under the class definition) Processes which include the step of applying or effecting an oscillation or to and fro movement to the article forming material in a mold, or to the

molding surface, or applying a sudden impact to the mold.

(1) Note. For agglomerating of particles by agitating or tumbling, see this class, subclass 117 and the notes thereto.

(2) Note. Tamping, per se, is considered a form of pressure application only and is excluded from this subclass.

(3) Note. Processes including a sliding movement between a reciprocating mold and a concrete surface to give a trowelling effect are included herein.

(4) Note. Patents claiming "rapid" or "high frequency" vibration, per se, with no disclosure as to the particular frequencies employed will be placed herein. To complete a search, however, see this class subclasses 442+ and the definition and notes thereto, and see (3) Note above with reference to the use of sonic or supersonic wave energy in the process.
