VEHICLES IN GENERAL

|  | B60 |
Note(s) In this class, the following term is used with the meaning indicated: "vehicle" means all vehicles except those restricted to one of the following types of vehicles: rail vehicles, waterborne vessels, aircraft, space vehicles, hand carts, cycles, animal-drawn vehicles, and sledges, which are covered by the relevant subclasses of Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...B61-B64. Thus the term "vehicle" includes: vehicular characteristics which are common to more than one of the above-listed types; certain characteristics restricted to automobiles, road or cross-country trailers. The following exceptions to the above should be noted: subclass Fulltext... Hierarchy... Expanded...B60B or 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...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.
