DEFINITION

Classification: 411/162

Variations comprise circumferentially spaced projections or recesses inset from both peripheries:

(under subclass 160) Device wherein the pattern of recurring changes in the figure's dimension in an axial direction is formed by a plurality of raised or depressed portions within one or both of the regions, which portions are spaced inwardly from the figure's outer periphery and outwardly from its inner periphery and are spaced from one another along an annular path.

(1) Note. In the instance of a figure formed (e.g., stamped) from thin material, the structure which comprises a raised portion within one region usually comprises a depressed portion within the other region.
