xvi Patents and Designs Journal No. 5940 26 March 2003 Notices - cont The range of specification numbers covered by Series C and D File Lists depends upon the Heading (or Part-Heading) concerned and the extent of backlogging following relevant revisions of the Classification key; this is because it has not always been necessary or efficient to backlog a new revision fully. Appropriate details are given in the Documentation Record of Each Heading (or Part-Heading), including information on how to retrieve relevant patent documents by series C or D file Lists as far back as the computer records go, using earlier editions of the Key if appropriate. In addition, as stated above, Series A File Lists are also available, and may need to be ordered if all relevant specifications below 1000001 are required to be retrieved, as the Series C and D File Lists do not necessarily contain all relevant specifications published before number 1000001. Further information may be obtained from Classification and Documentation Division or the Search and Advisory Service. In Headings where recent classification work has been carried out the information given in the Documentation record of the Heading may not be up to date. In such cases Classification and Documentation Division should be consulted for the latest situation. Each file list is produced to fulfil a specific order, however a set of the Series A File Lists is available for reference in the British Library. It will be appreciated if any instance of incorrect classification or indexing is brought to the notice of Classification and Documentation Division. The practice of classifying and indexing all published EP and PCT applications on the UK Classification Key ceased from specifications numbered EP 0285000 and WO1989/000001 onwards and therefore, subject to certain exceptions set out below, EP and PCT applications published from these numbers will not appear on subject-matter file lists based on the provisions of the UK Key. Classification Manual A Manual is available which explains in detail the system used for Heading C2C. It also contains notes and examples on both indexing and searching and will thus be found helpful by all those using this heading for Search purposes, especially be way of Series C and D file lists. Heading C2C, Organic Compounds: Manual for the Computer Retrieval System “Organic Compounds” C2C. The latest edition of the C2C Manual which replaced the 1974 edition and its supplements was published to coincide with Edition I of the Classification Key. Copies are available from Sales price £25.00. This Manual is used in the UK Patent Office for all searches within the field of organic chemistry corresponding to Heading “C2C - Organic compounds” of the UK Classification Key, and was developed by the co-operative effort of some 30 examiners and analysts. It first became operative in April 1974 with the exception of a few classifying and indexing terms which became operative later. Since 1974 there have been a number of changes to, or affecting the system. The major changes are summarized in Appendix F of the latest edition.
26 March 2003 Patents and Designs Journal No. 5940 xvii Notices - cont UK Classification of UK, EP and PCT Patent Specifications Computer prints giving the UK classification allotted to UK specifications and to EP and PCT patent specifications classified on the UK Key are available at a price of £5.25 per specification. The classification given will reflect any reclassification that has taken place. Requests for these prints should be made through the Patent Office (Sales). Classification on non-UK documents on the UK Key Prior to EP0285000 and WO1989/000001, all EP and PCT published applications, with the exception of applications relating to organic structures and certain syntheses falling within the scope of heading C2C, Organic compounds, were classified according to the UK Key. In the case of organic structures and certain syntheses falling within the scope of heading, C2C, EP and PCT applications published up to EP0219999 and WO1987/002999 were classified with all the appropriate term/s from heading C2C. EP and PCT applications published from EP0220000 and WO1987/003000 and up to EP0285000 and WO1989/ 000001 respectively attracted only terms CAA or CAB from heading C2C. From EPO285000 and WO1989/000001, only selected EP and PCT published applications relating to particular subject matter areas have been classified according to the UK Key. The headings or part headings of the UK Key in which these selected applications have been classified are listed below together with the serial numbers from which classification in certain of the headings has been discontinued. Those headings identified by an * are those in which selected US patent documents have been classified on the UK Key. It should be noted that only a limited number of US documents have been classified in the headings indicated and therefore subject-matter file lists based on the provisions of the UK Key will be substantially incomplete for US documents. UK Key Headings in which non-UK documents continued to be classified for a limited period after EP0285000 and WO1989/000001: Up to EP0300000 and WO1989/000001 C3V Miscellaneous polymer compositions, articles and uses H2F Electric converting systems Up to EP0320000 and WO1989/000001 A2D Preserving food, animal and vegetable substances &c * B8C Packing &c (Part A) C2C Organic compounds (Processes) * C3L Polymer &c working up * C3T Organo-silicon polymers * D1R Non-woven fibrous materials F1R Raising and discharging liquids &c (Part R15A-R15X) F2H Bolts, rivets, nails F2V Fluid pressure control valves &c * F4G Drying &c F4R Lamps &c * H1P Electromagnets, permanent magnets &c
