The inventions included within this class are themselves specially adapted to be supported upon some person or object.
The carrying feature predominates. Lifters and grapples are excluded because the hoisting or lifting feature is considered to control.
The articles carried also affect the classification for the same reason. Holders for bouquets, tickets, and other small objects of personal wear or use are excluded because they are carried for the use only and not with the idea of transportation.
(1) Note. Vehicle attached carriers include receptacles attached for use during transportation as well as receptacles attached for transportation only.
