G09F 9/30 in which the desired character or characters are formed by combining individual elements (panels comprising a number of electrodes in a single cell controlling light arriving from an independent light source, e.g. electro-optical or magneto-optical cell, G02F1/00)
Introduced: September 1968
Title
Titles differ between systems:
IPC: in which the desired character or characters are formed by combining individual elements
CPC: in which the desired character or characters are formed by combining individual elements (panels comprising a number of electrodes in a single cell controlling light arriving from an independent light source, e.g. electro-optical or magneto-optical cell, G02F1/00)
Full Title
Full titles differ between systems:
Indicating arrangements for variable information in which the information is built-up on a support by selection or combination of individual elements > in which the desired character or characters are formed by combining individual elements
Indicating arrangements for variable information in which the information is built-up on a support by selection or combination of individual elements (in which the variable information is permanently attached to a movable support G09F11/00; abacus G06C1/00; slide-rules G06G1/00) > in which the desired character or characters are formed by combining individual elements (panels comprising a number of electrodes in a single cell controlling light arriving from an independent light source, e.g. electro-optical or magneto-optical cell, G02F1/00)
Of 8 combined children, 7 exist in both systems.
1 codes are CPC-only extensions.
5 shared codes have differing titles between IPC and CPC.
IPC defines codes here since 1980.
