(under subclass 243) Apparatus including means to move or affect the motion of broached material or scrap of a broaching operation.
(1) Note. A single device to feed work to or remove product from a broaching station is considered to be work handling rather than product handling. However, similarly claimed apparatus disclosed as including a work handling means and a distinct product handling means will be found in this subclass.
(2) Note. Means for continuous or incremental advance of material from a first broaching station to a sequentially acting second broaching station is considered to be a product handling means for this subclass.
