This is the class of spring, weight, and animal powered motors and is specific to motors of these types and to plural arrangements of such motors.
(1) Note. Composite motors are defined as involving a
plurality of energy converting means, each of which is capable of delivering an output to a load which is not one of the means. Accordingly, the combination of two motors in which the sole function of one of the motors is to wind the second motor or to otherwise condition it for performing work for delivering energy is not classified as a composite motor but merely as a single motor having winding means.
Plural motors, both of which are Class 185 motors, are classified in this class. For plural motors of diverse types, one of which is a Class 185 type motor, see Lines With Other Classes, below.
LINES WITH OTHER CLASSES
Plural motors of diverse types, one of which is a Class 185 type motor, are classified in appropriate subclasses of Class 60, with the exception noted in the paragraph below.
Relative to combinations involving a Class 185 motor and a winding arrangement therefor, Class 185 takes such combinations when both the output motor and the winding motor are Class 185 type motors. Where the winding motor is not a Class 185 motor (as, for example, tide motors), classification is in the appropriate subclass of Class 60 with one exception. Combinations involving an electric motor for winding a Class 185 motor, the electric motor being incapable of performing other work, are classified in the appropriate winding subclasses of this class.
