DEFINITION
Classification: 83/468.1
Normal to plane of cut:
(under subclass 467.1) Device wherein the cutting instrumentality cuts the workpiece to form a prescribed flat surface and the firm obstacle functions by engagement with a workpiece on a surface at a right angle to the flat surface, wherein the formed flat surface extends normally to the surface at right angles thereto.
(1) Note. The "obstacle" of this subclass may extend along a line normal to the flat surface, or it may be of limited extent but engage a portion of the workpiece that extends along a line normal to the flat surface.
(2) Note. Neither a hole punch nor a button hole cutter (that cuts a short slit) is included herein because the line of cut does not extend to the edge of the work being engaged by the work-stop abutment.
SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:
468.8+, and 468.93+, for a cutting device having a work-stop abutment extending normally (a) to a tangent of a curved cutting edge, or (b) to one of the edges of a punch having a plurality of cutting edges.
