(under the class definition) Subject matter wherein the resistor is combined with structure that establishes and/or maintains its position or path of movement with reference to some other object, and not classified above or elsewhere.
(1) Note. For classification here some significant details of the resistance must be claimed. Classes 211 and 248 below, provide for supports for resistances or for the nominal combination of a resistor with support details. Class 174, especially subclass 138, provides for insulators, which may also perform a supporting function. The subclasses above in this schedule include resistors combined with particular types of supports, not otherwise classifiable. See the subclasses under SEARCH THIS CLASS below, for such subject matter.
SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:
16, for photoconductive resistors with vibration control.
50, for a resistor mounted on wheels or on a vehicle.
64, for resistors with electric and/or magnetic shielding. 67, for a resistor mounted on a diverse nonelectrical device.
98, for a mechanically variable resistor with vibration damping means; subclasses 164, 184 and 199 for such a resistor with a housing; and subclass 197 for such a resistor with a support.
219, for a resistor on a lamp socket or base 221, for detachable plug-in type resistors.
226+, for incased, embedded, or housed resistors.
290, for sinuous or zigzag resistors whose elements project through a slot or opening in a support or frame.
299, for a helical or wound resistor with a plurality of supported helices or windings; subclass 301 for such a resistor whose elements are wound on a flat or ribbon base; subclasses 302+ for such a resistor wound on a cylindrical or prismatic base; and subclasses 304+ for such a resistor on a frame or support generally.
306+, for a resistor whose element extends along a base.
