![[List of Patents for class 224 subclass 101]](../ps.gif) 101 | CARRIED BY ANIMATE BEARER: |
| | This subclass is indented under the class definition. Carrier supported by a living bearer.
| | (1)
Note. Carriers of the type included in this subclass and in
subclasses intended thereunder have been placed in other classes
on the basis of claims referring to particular articles or devices
which are held by the carriers and which are classifiable in said
classes. In addition, classification of the same type of carriers
in different classes will continue to exist until all related classes
have been reclassified. Hence, a searcher should consult search
notes included in this schedule for a partial listing of classes
wherein similar body-supported carriers are included. |
| | (2)
Note. The guards and holders found in Class 24, Buckles, Buttons,
Clasps, etc., are generally for eyeglasses, bouquets, tickets, and
other small articles carried more for personal use than for transportation.
Chatelaine hooks are classified in Class 24 unless the support used
therewith is specified further than as a mere ring or hook. |
