H 01 R

 LINE CONNECTORS; CURRENT COLLECTORS (switches, fuses H 01 H; coupling devices of the waveguide type H 01 P 5/00; switching arrangements for the supply or distribution of electric power H 02 B; installations of electric cables or lines, or of combined optical and electric cables or lines, or of auxiliary apparatus H 02 G; printed means for providing electric connections to or between printed circuits H 05 K)
 

Notes

(1)

 This subclass covers:
 

-

 all kinds of contact-making disconnectible and non-disconnectible electric line connectors, coupling devices, lamp or similar holders or current collectors for all kinds of electric lines, cables or apparatus;
 

-

 non-printed means for electric connections to or between printed circuits.

(2)

 This subclass does not cover mounting of connections in or on specified apparatus. Such mounting is covered by the relevant subclass for such apparatus, e.g. mounting in junction or distribution boxes is covered by subclass H 02 B or H 02 G, high-temperature connections for heating elements is covered by group H 05 B 3/08. Structural association of one part of a two-part coupling device with specific electric apparatus is classified with the apparatus, e.g. association of cap with incandescent lamp is covered by subclass H 01 K.

(3)

 In this subclass, a contact in a coupling device is only regarded as an additional earth contact if this contact is clearly designed for that purpose.

(4)

 General details are classified in groups H 01 R 4/00, H 01 R 9/00, H 01 R 11/00.
