Machines and Machine Tools

Machines and Machine Tools

#Introduction

Trademark Class 07 covers machines, machine tools, motors, engines, and mechanical parts used for industrial, agricultural, construction, or domestic purposes.

If your business manufactures or trades in machinery, compressors, engines, generators, pumps, or industrial tools, your brand should be protected under Class 07.

This class includes both power-driven machines and their mechanical parts, except for hand-operated tools (which are in Class 08).

  • Cooling fans for machines

  • Lubricating and oiling machines

  • Filters and separators for cleaning gases and liquids in machinery

H. Construction and Mining Machines

  • Drilling rigs, rock crushers, and asphalt mixers

  • Concrete mixers and cement batching plants

  • Stone-cutting and polishing machines

  • Tunnel boring machines

  • Industrial cranes and hoists (except vehicles)


#🚫 What’s Not Included in Class 07

  • Hand-operated tools and implements → Class 08

  • Motors and engines for land vehicles → Class 12

  • Electric tools and equipment (scientific or computing) → Class 09

  • Building materials and structural components → Class 19

  • Cleaning machines for domestic use (e.g., home vacuum cleaners) → Class 21


#đź’ˇ Practical Tips for Trademark Applicants

  • Always specify your machine type, e.g., “Textile manufacturing machines,” “Food packaging machines,” “Industrial pumps.”

  • Include both complete machines and their components if you manufacture both.

  • The phrase “machines and machine tools; motors and engines (except for land vehicles)” is a good comprehensive starting description.

  • If your machinery serves both industrial and domestic purposes, you may need to file in multiple classes (07 + 11 or 21).

  • Include automation systems and robotic machinery for modern industrial setups.


#đź§  Summary

Trademark Class 07 is dedicated to machines, mechanical systems, and engines used in industry, agriculture, and construction.

From industrial machinery and compressors to packaging and agricultural machines, this class protects trademarks in the engineering and manufacturing sector.

If your company builds or sells power-driven mechanical systems or machine parts, your trademark belongs to Class 07.
