VEHICLES IN GENERAL

|  | B60 |
Note(s) In this class, the term "vehicle" means all vehicles except those restricted to only one of the following types of vehicles: rail vehicles, waterborne vessels, aircraft, space vehicles, hand carts, cycles, animal-drawn vehicles, and sledges; these types are to be found in the relevant classes Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...B61-B64. Thus, the term "vehicle" embraces vehicular characteristics which are common to more than one of the above-listed types. It also embraces certain characteristics restricted to automobile or road or cross-country trailers. The following exceptions to be above should be noted: Sub-classes Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...B60B and Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...B60C embrace all vehicle wheels and tyres, except wheels for roller skates Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...A63C 17/22, wheels for model railway vehicles Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...A63H 19/22, and special adaptations of wheels or tyres for aircraft Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...B64C 25/36. Sub-class Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...B60C embraces the repairing of, and the connection of valves to, inflatable elastic bodies in general, and in this respect it is not limited to vehicles. Sub-class Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...B60L embraces certain electric equipment of all electrically-propelled vehicles. Sub-class Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...B60M embraces certain power supply equipment for, but external to, any kind of electrically-propelled vehicle. Sub-class Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...B60S relates to all kinds of vehicles, except the servicing of rail locomotive ground equipment for aircraft, which are covered by group Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...B61K 11/00 or sub-class Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...B64F. Sub-class Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...B60T includes brake control systems of general applicability, and in this respect it is not limited to vehicles. It also includes rail-vehicle power-brake systems and some other features of rail-vehicle brake systems.
