DEFINITION
Classification: 463/64
Object propelled by impact, projection, or reaction force (e.g., spring, fluid jet, wind, etc.):
(under subclass 58) Propelled racing wherein the mechanical force to place an object in motion includes either: (a) a movable mass (e.g., projectile, wind, etc.) arranged to hit or strike the object to transfer its momentum thereto in a direction toward completion of a race (i.e., intended direction); (b) a movable or expandable mass (e.g., projector, spring, etc.) arranged to throw, hurl, shoot, or otherwise push the object in said intended direction; or (c) an object-carried mass arranged to forcefully escape from the object (e.g., jet, etc.) in a direction opposite to said intended direction to cause the object to be propelled along said intended direction.
