(under subclass 30) Devices in which the hollow electrode or lead is provided with a closed conduit designed for the passage of a temperature modifying fluid therethrough.
(1) Note. In many of the devices in this subclass the electrode or lead is provided with two coaxial tubes one within the other and the fluid flows in one direction through the inner tube and in the opposite direction between the walls of the inner and outer tubes, but this subclass is not limited to such devices.
