DEFINITION

Classification: 277/602

Contact seal for a pipe, conduit, or cable:

(under subclass 590) Static seal wherein the seal sealingly touches against and is intended for an extended hollow or electrically insulated conductor part to seal the joint or juncture between concentric extended hollow or electrically insulated conductor parts; the extended hollow or electrically insulated part's end, and another extended hollow or electrically insulated conductor part's end; or the extended hollow part or electrically insulated conductor and a wall.

SEE OR SEARCH CLASS

285, Pipe Joints or Couplings, for means to secure in end-to-end or side-to-side relationship a pipe to another pipe, a plate, a wall, a receptacle, or other base where the means are independent from a seal (i.e., more than the frictional engagement of the seal secures a pipe end to another part) or a sleeve securing the pipe ends or another part;

95+, for a seal responsive to line pressure or means to test the seal by using line pressure, especially subclass 97 for a seal having an inflatable member having an external pressure supply; subclass 187 for temperature responsive means to maintain a good seal for expansion or contraction in the pipe coupling; or subclasses 335+ for a seal combined with the pipe joint or coupling.

439, Electrical Connectors, for a generic electrical connection between at least two conducting elements permitting relative motion or where the connection is a readily made or broken type, 271+, for a sealing element or material for cooperation with the coupled connector (e.g., gasket, etc.) or subclass 559 for a seal to a coupling part that extends into a panel opening.
