DEFINITION

Classification: 280/5.51

Steering element responsive (e.g., steering angle, steering rate):

(under subclass 5.508) Subject matter wherein the regulatable elastic means responds to operation of a mechanism causing the vehicle to execute arcuate travel.

(1) Note. The mere inclusion of terminology associated with arcuate travel of a vehicle, such as steered, turned, or turning, without a limitation indicative of operation of means for executing such arcuate travel of the vehicle does not render classification proper for this or the indented subclasses.
