DEFINITION

Classification: 446/34

AERODYNAMICALLY SUPPORTED OR RETARDED:

(under the class definition) Device including a surface which, when moved relative to the surrounding air, reacts with the air to either support the weight of the device, or to restrict its velocity.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

88, for a model airplane adapted to be assembled from a kit, and with no aerodynamic features.

237+, for a simulated aerial device (i.e., nonflying).

40, Card, Picture, or Sign Exhibiting,

413, for an automobile hood ornament in the form of an aircraft and which is caused to rise by the relative wind. 124, Mechanical Guns and Projectors, for a centrifugally or mechanically operated device, per se, for launching a projectile into the air (e.g., a sling, bow, baseball or tennis ball pitching machine, slingshot, etc.).

244, Aeronautics, appropriate subclasses for kites, and full size aeronautic devices. Inventions which apply logically to full size devices for actual use in carrying persons or cargo are classified in Class 244. All other toy or model aircraft are classified in Class 446.

273, Amusement Devices: Games,

317+, for an aerial projectile claimed in combination with at least one other game component and for an implement or mechanically operated device for projecting or launching a game projectile into the air provided that it is claimed in combination with at least one other game component.

473, Games Using Tangible Projectile,

569+, for an aerial projectile, per se, used for play of a game or sport, which projectile may be aerodynamically supported or retarded (e.g., a boomerang, flying disc or saucer, etc.). Also included in Class 473 are (a) a centrifugally or mechanically operated device for projecting or launching such aerial projectile provided only that it is claimed in combination with at least one other game component such as a game projectile, (b) a player held and powered implement, per se, for striking and thereby projecting such aerial projectile, and (c) an implement or device, per se, for both projecting and catching an aerial projectile.
