Note(s)

  1. Knitted products, i.e. fabrics, articles, are classified in this sub-class only if they have constructional features which are of interest from the knitting aspect.
  2. The groups designating machines, apparatus, devices, or implements are intended to include processes characterised by, or dependent on, their use, and the products of such processes.

 D04D

Note(s)

For the purposes of this sub-class, the term "trimmings" is to be interpreted as meaning decorative or ornamental articles made wholly or partly of textile or analogous material, or strips of textile or analogous material intended to be used for decorative or ornamental purposes, not otherwise provided for.

MAKING NETS BY KNOTTING OF FILAMENTARY MATERIAL; MAKING KNOTTED CARPETS OR TAPESTRIES; KNOTTING NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR (binding knotters for harvesters A01D 59/04; wire netting B21F; tying articles by knotting B65B; knotting in association with winding or unwinding B65H 69/00; knotting in weaving D03J; making nets, carpets, or tapestries by other techniques, see the appropriate sub-classes)

 D04H
MAKING TEXTILE FABRICS, e.g. FROM FIBRES OR FILAMENTARY MATERIAL (weaving D03; knitting D04B; braiding D04C; net-making D04G; sewing D05B; tufting D05C; finishing non-woven fabrics D06); FABRICS MADE BY SUCH PROCESSES OR APPARATUS, e.g. FELTS, NON-WOVEN FABRICS; COTTON-WOOL; WADDING (non-woven fabrics having an intermediate or external layer of a different kind, e.g. of woven fabric, B32B)
 D04H

Note(s)

In this sub-class, the term "non-woven fabrics" is used to mean fabrics formed wholly or partly of textile material by processes comprising operations other than the weaving, knitting, braiding, lacing, or knotting of yarns, threads, or filaments for which provision is made in other sub-classes of Section D. For the purposes of this sub-class, the term "non-woven fabrics" embraces felts, cotton-wool, and wadding. Some of these fabrics can also be regarded as "layered products" within the meaning of sub-class B32B, and additional classification in that sub-class should be considered in accordance with introductory and explanatory the notes thereto. In cases where the making of such fabrics involves the use of particular chemical compounds or compositions, e.g. for treating or bonding fibres, filaments, or yarns, additional classification in other appropriate sub-classes should also be considered. By varying the proportions of fibres or threads, and the chemical compounds or compositions, the final products may be given the appearance of paper, cardboard, leather, or the like.
