(under subclass 44) Apparatus claiming the means for deflecting the strands leading from one set of carriers in and out past a second set of carriers.
(1) Note. The organized machine should not be claimed. Where any features of organization or structure not common to all machines of this type are claimed, the patent is placed in the appropriate preceding subclass; i.e., this subclass takes those means providing for strand deflection, per se, or in combination with a broad statement of general known types of machine organization.
(2) Note. Since strand deflection is a necessary feature of all machines of this type, search on this subcombination must be completed in subclass 44 and the other indented subclasses.
