DEFINITION
Classification: 264/912
From toroidal shapes (e.g., resilient tires, etc.):
(under subclass 910) Processes, wherein the consumer used article from which useful material is recovered is toroidal shaped (e.g., doughnut shaped).
(1) Note. A toroidal shape is comprised of a solid figure generated when rotated about an axis lying in the same plane therewith, but not intersecting or containing, an axis in its own plane.
(2) Note. The majority of the art in this subclass relates to processes for recovering useable material from worn or damaged vehicle tires, but the subclass is not so limited.
