Notes |
|
(1) | In this subclass, the following terms or expression are used with the meanings indicated: |
|
– | "positive ignition" means ignition by a source external to the working fluid, e.g. by spark or incandescent source; |
|
– | "charging" means forcing air or fuel-air mixture into engine cylinders, and thus includes supercharging; |
|
– | "scavenging" means forcing the combustion residues from the cylinders other than by movement of the working pistons, and thus includes tuned exhaust systems. |
|
(2) | Attention is drawn to the Notes preceding class F 01, especially as regards Note (1). |
|
(3) | Engines with specified cycles or number of cylinders are classified in group F 02 B 75/02 or F 02 B 75/16, unless other classifying features predominate. |
