DEFINITION

Classification: 400/475

Operated by user's leg (e.g., foot, knee, etc.):

(under subclass 473) Subject matter wherein said means is energized by a lower limb of the typist.

(1) Note. A typewriter of this subclass is usually intended to increase typing speed by giving the typist the capability of actuating such functions* as carriage* return, case-shift*, word-space*, etc., by a key* element that is pressed by action of a foot, knee, etc., rather than pressed by a finger. A typewriter for a handicapped person is found in subclass 87 above.
