DEFINITION

Classification: 410/65

Accommodation means conforms to wheel sidewall during guidance or rest condition, e.g., rub rail or wheel well:

(under subclass 56) Structure in which the freight carrier support surface is provided with accommodation means of such configuration as to be in engagement with a sidewall of the semitrailer wheel during its movement along the freight carrier to a stowed location or when it is at that location, whereby lateral movement of the semitrailer is thereby prevented.

(1) Note. The mere lowering of the wheeled landing gear on a deck surface is not considered to convert a semitrailer to a four-wheeled vehicle to bar placement in this subclass in favor of lower subclasses 66+. However, additional (e.g., fore-end) wheels to facilitate guidance for stowage on the freight carrier, even though such additional wheels are nonroadable and have only that stowage facilitation use and capability, is subject matter for that inferior subclass and will be found therein rather than in the instant subclass. See (1) Note in principal subclass 56. [figure]
