DEFINITION

Classification: 269/115

(under subclass 111) Device wherein an actuating means is located near, or at, the juncture of two lateral frame parts and said means is so oriented that a line, formed by tracing a point on the actuated jaw as it moves toward the work, is (A) perpendicular to one of the two parts forming a corner, or (B) the line falls outside the frame and outside the angle, opposite said corner, formed by imaginary extensions of said two sides.

(1) Note. Patents placed in this subclass include a frame wherein the frame, at one corner, is positioned to be coincident with one quadrant, and, at said corner, the relatively movable jaws* are positioned within the confines of the two adjacent quadrants.

(2) Note. See (3) Note under subclass 111.

(3) Note. In the figure below, the portion in section represents the work, and the lines J1 through J6 represent the movement of a point on an actuated jaw(s) toward a gripping position. [figure]
