DEFINITION

Classification: 338/197

(under subclass 68) Subject matter including a variable resistor as defined in subclass 68 together with structure that establishes and/or maintains the resistor position or path of movement with reference to some other object.

(1) Note. The subject matter of this subclass usually involves a variable resistor mounted on a panel. For classification purposes the panel or the structure securing the variable resistor to the panel or other object may be considered a support.
