(under the class definition) Inductor devices having exterior means to support the entire inductor structure.
(1) Note. A support is defined as a device or means which carries the weight of the inductor device or otherwise hold or steady it against the pull of gravity.
(2) Note. Means for supporting parts or elements of the inductor device with respect to each other are not considered support or mounting means for classification in this subclass. For such subject matter, see particularly subclass 185 for supports or spacers for the coils of a winding; subclass 195 for one coil supported by another coil; subclasses 196+ for supporting or spacing means between coil and core; subclasses 199+ for coil or coil turn supports; subclass 210 for core clamps, wedges or fasteners.
(3) Note. A mere casing or housing for the inductor device is not considered to be a supporting means within the definition of this subclass. However, if the casing or housing is provided with means for supporting the casing or housing such as being mounted on supporting legs or wheels or has legs extending from the casing so that casing can be mounted on a panel or wall, the structure is considered to be supporting structure for this subclass. See subclass 92 for inductor devices provided with means to support the inductor device within the casing.
