DEFINITION
Classification: 362/89
(under the class definition) Subject matter in combination with a device including an assemblage of parts that transmit forces, motion, and energy one to another in a predetermined manner and generally support structure wherein illuminating means of the class is attached to or built into the device to illuminate some part of the device or work area of the device, and not classified elsewhere.
(1) Note. Illuminating light supports are considered basic subject matter of the class even if they include machine elements, and are classified in subclasses 382+ below rather than being considered a combined device for this section 89+.
(2) Note. Hand held machine tools or implements are classified in subclasses 109+ below.
(3) Note. Mere supports or holders of objects other than illuminating elements are classified below with the specific type of object support or holder, e.g., subclasses 98+, paper holders, subclasses 127+, furniture, subclasses 135+, viewing mirror, and subclasses 154+, container.
(4) Note. Heating or refrigerating and fluid dispensers are provided for below in subclasses 92+ and 96.
