DEFINITION

Classification: 318/9

(under subclass 3) Subject matter in which the particular motor driven device comprises means for receiving and transmitting mechanical power, torque, force, or motion from the electric motor to some load device adapted to be actuated thereby.

(1) Note. Motor Systems and Power, Motion, Force or Torque Transmitting Devices Driven Thereby in the class definition for the combinations of an electric motor and a power, torque, force or motion transmitting mechanism included in this class.

(2) Note. This subclass excludes motor driven clutches and motor driven magnetic field type of transmitting device. See Search Class below.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

4+, for such transmitting mechanisms in combination with other particular load devices, all actuated by electric motors, the transmitting mechanism having means for driving a load device other than the particular load device.

8, for such a transmitting mechanism driven by two or more electric motors.

SEE OR SEARCH CLASS 310, Electrical Generator or Motor Structure,

75+, for electric motors having drive mechanism therefor, and subclasses 92+ for the combination of an electric motor and a magnetic field type of transmitting mechanism. See (1) Note above.

477, Interrelated Power Delivery Controls, Including Engine

Control, for interrelated control between a motor and a transmission, clutch, or brake. See (1) Note above.
