SEARCH OF USPTO DATABASE OF MARKS
IDENTIFICATION OF GOODS
Therefore, applicant must remove the parentheses from the identification and incorporate any parenthetical or bracketed information into the description of the goods and/or services.
Applicant may adopt the following identification, if accurate:
International Class 7: 3D printers; Cutting machines for metalworking; Drilling machines for metalworking; Electric metal sheath dispersion machinery using electrical discharge to remove the metal sheath from mineral insulated wire and stainless steel over braid wire; Electric welding machines; Engraving machines; Extensions for power tools; Industrial fluid cleaning machinery; Industrial machinery, namely, electromechanical marking machines; Laser engraving machines; Laser welding machines; Lathes; Machine parts, namely, work holding fixtures for precision machining applications; Machine tool holders; Metal clamps used for holding piece parts on machine tool tables; Metal working machines; Numerically controlled machines and machine tools used for machining parts; Power-operated sharpeners; Toolholders for metalworking machines being machine parts; Vacuum cleaners for industrial purposes
Applicant’s goods and/or services may be clarified or limited, but may not be expanded beyond those originally itemized in the application or as acceptably amended. See 37 C.F.R. §2.71(a); TMEP §1402.06. Applicant may clarify or limit the identification by inserting qualifying language or deleting items to result in a more specific identification; however, applicant may not substitute different goods and/or services or add goods and/or services not found or encompassed by those in the original application or as acceptably amended. See TMEP §1402.06(a)-(b). The scope of the goods and/or services sets the outer limit for any changes to the identification and is generally determined by the ordinary meaning of the wording in the identification. TMEP §§1402.06(b), 1402.07(a)-(b). Any acceptable changes to the goods and/or services will further limit scope, and once goods and/or services are deleted, they are not permitted to be reinserted. TMEP §1402.07(e).
For assistance with identifying and classifying goods and services in trademark applications, please see the USPTO’s online searchable U.S. Acceptable Identification of Goods and Services Manual. See TMEP §1402.04.
