DEFINITION

Classification: 72/435

Mechanical potential energy drive means only:

(under subclass 429) Apparatus wherein the tool-moving means includes mechanism for converting latent power into developed power to drive the tool.

(1) Note. Potential-energy resulting from gravitational attraction is the usual source of energy, but a spring interconnecting a tool with a tool-housing is also a source of energy in some disclosures of this subclass.
