F 04POSITIVE-DISPLACEMENT MACHINES FOR LIQUIDS; PUMPS FOR LIQUIDS OR ELASTIC FLUIDS (portable fire extinguishers with manually-operated pumps A 62 C 11/00, with power-driven pumps A 62 C 25/00; charging or scavenging combustion engines by pumps F 02 B; engine fuel-injection pumps F 02 M; ion pumps H 01 J 41/12; electrodynamic pumps H 02 K 44/02)

 Note

 Combinations of positive-displacement and non-positive-displacement pumps are classified in subclass F 04 B as a general subclass for pumps, and in subclasses F 04 C, F 04 D in respect of matter specific to those subclasses.

F 04 BPOSITIVE-DISPLACEMENT MACHINES FOR LIQUIDS; PUMPS (machines for liquids, or pumps, of rotary-piston or oscillating-piston type F 04 C; non-positive-displacement pumps F 04 D; pumping of fluid by direct contact of another fluid or by using inertia of fluid to be pumped F 04 F; crankshafts, crossheads, connecting-rods F 16 C; flywheels F 16 F; gearings for interconverting rotary motion and reciprocating motion in general F 16 H; pistons, piston-rods, cylinders, in general F 16 J)

F 04 CROTARY-PISTON, OR OSCILLATING-PISTON, POSITIVE-DISPLACEMENT MACHINES FOR LIQUIDS (engines F 03 C); ROTARY-PISTON, OR OSCILLATING-PISTON, POSITIVE-DISPLACEMENT PUMPS

F 04 DNON-POSITIVE-DISPLACEMENT PUMPS

F 04 FPUMPING OF FLUID BY DIRECT CONTACT OF ANOTHER FLUID OR BY USING INERTIA OF FLUID TO BE PUMPED (containers or packages with special means for dispensing liquid or semi-liquid contents by internal gaseous pressure B 65 D 83/14); SIPHONS [2]
