DEFINITION

Classification: 239/146

(under the class definition) Apparatus having a tank, container or receptacle constituting the supply means, mounted on a vehicular support to thereby affect or permit transposition thereof during the spraying operation.

(1) Note. Mere wheel, skid or the like support means (1) directly secured to, or (2) secured to axle means, and

carried by the supply means is not sufficient to qualify the support as a vehicle. The support means must be sustainable as such without the presence of the tank-type supply.

(2) Note. Many of the patents in this group are placed here on the basis that a mobile tank supply is disclosed even though only a supply means is claimed. The mobility of the supply means whether claimed or not where combined with the distributor so that there is a self-contained operative unit capable of performing its function detached from a "pipe line" or "mains" supply and therefore during motion is deemed sufficient to warrant the disclosure as basis for the placement of the patents in this group.
