(under subclass 560) Device wherein the basic apparatus subject to conversion is a work holder with relatively movable jaws.
(1) Note. Though "work holding" is strictly neither a "shaping" nor an "assembling" function in accord with the concepts of Class 29, subclass 33 patents relative to the convertible (compound or combined) vise-shaping art are placed here and cross-referenced to the particular work holder or shaping class for specific details of such features.
(2) Note. Included herein is a device which by disclosure is intended for use with other than metal workpieces-- though not so limited in the claimed structure.
(3) Note. Included herein is a device wherein the means for moving the vise jaws also serves (a) to effect relative movement between a workpiece and a shaping instrumentality
and/or (b) to operate or actuate a shaping instrumentality.
