DEFINITION

Classification: 239/684

(under subclass 681) Apparatus in which a claim includes some specific recitation of the means which functions to impart motion to the strewing means.

(1) Note. In order to qualify under this definition of "specific driving means", the claim must include at the minimum a power means (e.g., prime mover, ground wheel, hand crank, etc.) and one portion of a gear train or linkage system (e.g., pulley, belt, bell crank, etc.) between the power means and the strewing means, claimed in such a manner

as to clearly establish the presence of both means. Merely reciting a broad "means" which, as disclosed, includes the entire driving means is not included under this definition.
