DEFINITION

Classification: 428/369

(under subclass 364) Product wherein the longitudinal axis of the rod, strand or fiber, considered as a unit, follows a curvilinear or multi-directional path.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

32, for a 3 dimensional object part of which has a winding or coil or braid of a strand, usually for decorative purposes, as for example, on the hilt or scabbard of a sword.

37, for a product comprising a spirally flatwound strand or strip, e.g., in the form of a braided rug.

108, for a product in which strands or strand-portions in a plurality of layers* are angularly related to one another and in which the longitudinal axis of the strands or strand-portions follows a multi-directional or curvilinear path.

222, for a composite* web* or sheet* in which one of the components* is helical.

292.1+, for a composite* web* or sheet* in which one of the components* comprises structurally defined fibers which may be nonlinear in extent (e.g., crimped or coiled). 362, for a fiber of staple length which is nonlinear in extent.
