DEFINITION

Classification: 29/728

Means to place sheath on running-length core:

(under subclass 700) Apparatus including means to enclose an inner part of indeterminate length with a separate, coextensive, hollow, outer, tubular part.

(1) Note. The inner part may be hollow or may be made of multiple parts.

(2) Note. The product of this apparatus may be "armored cable".

(3) Note. This subclass includes apparatus which would be classified in the class for Textiles: Spinning, Twisting, and Twining, except that the apparatus herein includes means to perform a "setting" operation. "Setting" denotes a mechanical operation such as interlocking or deformation, other than the

mere application, which causes the sheath to stay put. See the Search NOtes below.

33.5+, for similar apparatus combined with cutting means.

234, for apparatus for assembling a tube of definite length into a coextensive core. 435, for a process of making helically wound armored cable.

779, for similar structure for assembling running length work.
