DEFINITION

Classification: 359/530

Unitary plate or sheet comprising plural reflecting elements:

(under subclass 529) Subject matter wherein the reflective elements, such as the individual triple reflectors, are part of a single plate or sheet comprising a plurality of the

3-corner reflective elements.

(1) Note. The reflective elements are a part of the structure of the plate or sheet.

(2) Note. Many of these retroreflectors are used on highways for road makers.

(3) Note. Plural reflectors combined into a single substrate are classified in this subclass whereas plural reflectors using multiple substrates are classified in subclass 529.
