HAND TOOLS; PORTABLE POWER-DRIVEN TOOLS; HANDLES FOR HAND IMPLEMENTS; WORKSHOP EQUIPMENT; MANIPULATORS
 B25

Note(s)

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

  • "portable" includes suspension for easy manual handling, e.g. in connection with spring-suspended portable apparatus for use along assembly lines.

 B25F
COMBINATION OR MULTI-PURPOSE TOOLS NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR; DETAILS OR COMPONENTS OF PORTABLE POWER-DRIVEN TOOLS NOT PARTICULARLY RELATED TO THE OPERATIONS PERFORMED AND NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR  [4]
 B25F

Note(s)

This subclass does not cover tools having a clear primary function as well as one or more secondary functions. Those tools are covered by the relevant subclass for tools having such primary function and are, thus, not classified in group B25F 1/00 or B25F 3/00 of this subclass.

P:10 B25F 1/00
Combination or multi-purpose hand tools (associations of tools for different working operations with one portable power-drive means B25F 3/00)
P:0 B25F 3/00
Associations of tools for different working operations with one portable power-drive means; Adapters therefor
P:20 B25F 5/00
Details or components of portable power-driven tools not particularly related to the operations performed and not otherwise provided for  [4]
