SECTION I - CLASS DEFINITION
This is the residual class for a static implement, rather than
a machine, having:
A. Structure intended for shaping fluent material only wherein
the structure is so arranged as to define a space or cavity for
retaining the fluent material and wherein the fluent material initially
having no definite form conforms to the shape of the space or cavity
solely by gravitational force on the fluent material and changes
to a self-sustaining shape which shape is retained even after removal
from the structure.
| (1)
Note. The space or cavity may be formed by a mold part cooperating
with existing structure, e.g., building structure or earth. |
B. Implements of the type set forth in subparagraph A above
disclosed for use with, but not so claimed, means for applying an
external force to fluent material only for imparting a shape thereto;
i.e., a female portion of a male-female couple.
C. Implements disclosed for use with the structures set forth
in subparagraphs A and B above for shaping the interior of a hollow
casting, or which make a hole in or through a casting upon separation
therefrom.
D. Implements of the type set forth in subparagraphs A and
B above combined with that of the type set forth in subparagraph
C above.
E. Structure including molding surfaces intended for shaping
and bonding a fluent material with a preform to form a composite
product that is separable from at least one molding surface.
F. Essential subcombinations of the structures set forth in
subparagraphs A-D above which are separable from the product.
G. Adjuncts, per se, disclosed for use with the structure of
subparagraphs A-F above which perform some function other than shaping
and are not classifiable elsewhere.

by name only without any inclusion of structure and defined only
in terms of composition are classified as originals in appropriate
composition classes, particularly those listed in References to
Other Classes, below, referencing this section.
(b) Composite Layers
Patents wherein all the claims are limited to a mold mentioned
by name only without any inclusion of structure and defined only
in terms of the composition of the individual layers are classified

within the mold.
b. A mold combined with a cover having projections penetrating
into the fluent hardenable material upon movement of the cover to
its operative position.

site to another.
d. A mold formed of separable and unconnected parts combined
with means to individually handle each part for assembly.
e. A mold provided with a core or ejector combined with a
machine-type means for actuating the core or ejector.
f. A mold combined with means to position the work relative
to the mold and which means functions to release the work to permit
it to fall into the mold.
g. A mold or core combined with means for creating differential
pressure within the mold or core for dynamically shaping a molding
material.
h. A mold combined with means for feeding material thereto,
except that a mold with an integral funnel element or a mold so
modified to provide structure especially designed for supporting
a feeding means, is classified in this class (249, subclasses 105+).
i. A mold and means to vibrate the mold.
j. A mold combined with means to rotate the mold for centrifugal
casting.
k. A segmented female mold or core, e.g., tunnel type, etc.,
