DEFINITION

Classification: 417/231

(under subclass 229) Apparatus in which the pump is mounted on or attached to a vehicle and is driven incident to movement of the vehicle or the relative motion of vehicle parts.

(1) Note. The pump may be attached to the vehicle only when it is desired to operate the pump. For example, this definition includes those devices in which a vehicle drive wheel is elevated and a pump attached thereto.

(2) Note. The pump is considered to be combined with vehicle under this definition if it is driven by some part of the vehicle other than directly by the vehicle motor. For example, this definition includes those devices in which the pump is driven by a vehicle wheel or axle, transmission, fly-wheel or tractor power take-off shaft.
