2WITH SIGNAL, INDICATOR OR TRANSPARENT INSPECTION MEANS


DEFINITION

Classification: 418/2

(under the class definition) Apparatus having (1) signals, indicators, registers, recorders or gauges for indicating either a condition of operation of the device or the condition or position of a part thereof or (2) window means whereby the operation of the device or the condition or

position of a part thereof may be readily observed.

(1) Note. For classification under part (1) of this definition there must be either an indicia or an audible or visible signal. Relative to indicia, there must be graduation or markings in the disclosure as claimed. Where it is indicated that the mere position of a part is indicative of a condition of the device (e.g., valve handle position corresponds to direction of working member rotation or position of a part of the device) classification under this definition does not result unless some cooperating indicia are included.
