Note(s)

  • In this subclass, the following term is used with the meaning indicated:
    • "manipulator" covers handling tools, devices, or machines having a gripping or work head capable of bodily movement in space and of change of orientation, such bodily movement and change of orientation being controlled by means remote from the head, e.g. programme-controlled industrial robots.
