.~.~> And including electrical contact for load bearing
DEFINITION
Classification: 439/529
And including appurtenant means for supporting other structure:
(under subclass 527) Coupling part combined with structure to hold against gravity structure in addition to the coupling part assemblage.
(1) Note. Included herein is an electrical connector and additional housing structure fixedly attached thereto intended to support another structure, such as a lamp.
(2) Note. Included herein is an electrical connector and a hook for supporting a flexible suspension means.

313, for a coupling part having appurtenant means for supporting other structure with a relatively pivotable concentric movement-actuating or retaining ring.
334, for a coupling part having appurtenant means for supporting other structure with a relatively pivotable concentric movement-actuating means or retaining means in addition to the contact thereof.
343, for a coupling part having appurtenant means for supporting other structure comprising a coupling part movable about an axis, generally, with coupling movement-actuating means or retaining means in addition to the contact thereof. 351, for a coupling part having appurtenant means for supporting other structure including a retaining means comprising a finger or stretchable sleeve.
361, for a coupling part having appurtenant means for supporting other structure including a retaining means comprising a helically-threaded member.
450, for an electrical connector combined with means to support the load of a suspended lamp wherein tension is applied to the conductor cable such that the load of the cable is not transmitted to the contact of the connector.
520, for an electrical connector combined with a flexible suspension means to support that connector.

248, Supports, for a supporting structure combined with an electrical connector if the support is to function independently of the electrical connector. For example, a wall hanging lamp base that receives a portion of the support of the lamp base from a contact that fits into a wall receptacle is not considered to function independently of the connector and is to be found in this class (Class 439). On the other hand, a similar wall hanging lamp base that is secured totally to the wall for support and includes a connector to be plugged into an independent wall receptacle is to be found in Class 248.
362, Illumination,
382+, for any combination of a support with significant structure of a light source or a light source support having
structural features limited to use with a light source support having structural features limited to use with a light source. See the line expressed in the definition of Class 362, subclasses 382+.
