In this subclass, the following term is used with the meaning indicated:

–

"scaffolding" includes other supports for like purposes.

Workmen's or safety scaffolds

Scaffolding primarily resting on the ground

composed essentially of members elongated in one dimension only, e.g. poles, lattice masts, with or without end portions of special form, connected together by any means

the members being exclusively poles, rods, beams, or other members of similar form and simple cross-section

comprising members with rod-like or tubular portions fitting together end to end, with or without separate connecting pieces

secured together by bolts or the like penetrating the members

Timber-work constructions

comprising members of special, e.g. composite, cross-section, or with lugs or the like or lateral apertures for supporting or attaching other members

comprising essentially pre-assembled frame-like or related elements, e.g. of rods in L-, H-, or box-shape, with or without bracing (E 04 G 1/15 takes precedence)

essentially comprising special means for supporting or forming platforms (E 04 G 1/20 takes precedence); Platforms

essentially comprising simple members and members formed so as to give rigidity to the structure

adjustable in height

Scaffolding comprising upright members and provision for supporting cross-members or platforms at different positions therealong

Scaffolding having a platform on an extensible sub-structure, e.g. of telescopic type or with lazy-tongs mechanism

comprising essentially special base constructions; comprising essentially special ground-engaging parts, e.g. inclined struts, wheels (component parts E 04 G 5/00)

Auxiliary structures for scaffolding, e.g. steps, canopies, railings

designed to provide support only at a low height

Ladder scaffolding

Other free-standing supports, e.g. using trestles (stands or trestles in general F 16 M 11/00)

Scaffold constructions able to be folded in prismatic or flat parts or able to be turned down

Scaffolds for particular parts of buildings or buildings of particular shape, e.g. for stairs, cupolas, domes

for use without permanent provision on the building

attached to the side of a building (E 04 G 3/10 takes precedence)

comprising cantilevers which are detachably mounted on the building, e.g. in window openings

adapted to be attached to walls by hooks or the like, e.g. bracket scaffolds

Hanging scaffolds, e.g. which can be shifted or have vertically-displaceable platforms

Scaffolds specially adapted for working on roofs

requiring permanent provision, e.g. rails, on the building; Permanent scaffold-like arrangements for inspection or repair work

Movable platforms or cradles; Movable supports therefor (E 04 G 3/10 takes precedence)

Component parts for workmen's scaffolds (connections E 04 G 7/00)

Scaffold feet, e.g. with arrangements for adjustment

Means for fastening, supporting, or bracing scaffolds on or against building constructions (fastenings in general F 16 B)

Consoles; Brackets

Scaffold boards or planks (platforms E 04 G 1/15)

Connections between parts of the scaffold (for building structures in general E 04 B 1/38; connections in general F 16 B)

with separate coupling elements

Flexible elements, with or without brackets, e.g. ropes, cables, chains (in general F 16 G)

Stiff scaffolding clamps for connecting scaffold members of common shape

Clamps for parallely-arranged members

Self-tightening clamps, e.g. stirrups

Clamps or clips for crossing members (E 04 G 7/22 takes precedence)

for clamping the members independently

of which the clamping parts for the different members are rotatable with respect to one another

for clamping the members against one another or against a separate cushioning piece between them

for ends of members only, e.g. for connecting members in end-to-end relation

for scaffold members in end-to-side relation

Couplings involving arrangements covered by more than one of the groups E 04 G 7/08, E 04 G 7/12, E 04 G 7/20, E 04 G 7/22

for use with specially-shaped scaffold members

Clips or connections for securing boards (brackets E 04 G 5/06)
