    摘要: A unit type linear scale is provided, which has a frame body that houses a plate-shaped main scale and extends in a direction of length measurement. The frame body is fixed with screws at multiple positions to an object of measurement through screw holes formed at a plurality of positions along the direction of length measurement. A groove is formed in the frame and extended in the direction of length measurement, and one surface of the main scale is made to contact with the wall surface of one side of the groove. An elastic component is provided between, however excluding portions where the screw holes are provided, the wall surface of the groove on the other side of the groove along the direction of length measurement and the other surface of the main scale. Thereby, the scale is secured by the frame.

    摘要: A measuring cable travel sensor includes a housing and a cable drum which is arranged in the housing rotatably and longitudinally displaceably in the longitudinal direction of the travel sensor. The measuring cable is guided into and out of the housing through a stationary cable guide. The travel sensor has a longitudinal drive for displacing the cable drum, including a spindle drive comprising a screwthreaded spindle and a spindle nut screwable thereon. The longitudinal drive has an additional transmission for transmitting rotary movement of the cable drum to the spindle drive for producing cable drum displacement.

    摘要: A head for the linear dimension checking of mechanical pieces including a casing, an arm carrying a feeler for touching a surface of the mechanical piece to be checked, a fulcrum, coupled to the casing and the arm, for enabling displacements of the arm with respect to the casing and a transducer for providing signals depending on the position of the arm with respect to the casing. The head has specific flexibility and modularity features, thanks to the possibility of operating from the exterior for adjusting and replacing various components. The transducer is of the inductive, half-bridge type, with multiple windings. An integral element for the electric connection to a processing unit includes the windings of the transducer, a cable and a connector, and the latter comprises a rapid locking/unlocking device. The ends of the cable are connected between the windings of the transducer and the connector by means of an over-molding process of a plastic material. A checking apparatus, including at least a gauging or measuring head, includes a stationary structure and at least a support structure for the head, coupled to the stationary structure in an adjustable and removable way.

    摘要: A measurable guide actuator is used to integrate a driving mechanism, a guide mechanism, and a position measuring member so as to form an integral simplifying construction, thereby facilitating the usage and thereby reducing consumption of material. The measurable guide actuator of the present invention uses a U-shaped guide track to function as the guide mechanism. The driving mechanism uses a screw or a belt. The position measuring member includes a ruler body mounted in the guide mechanism, and a reading head sealed in the sliding table to slide therewith so that the position measuring member can be used to measure the displacement position values.

This apparatus includes a main arm (1), a lower gauge head support arm (2), a bearing roller arm (3), an upper gauge head supporting arm (4), a presser roller arm (5), an position-fixing bracket (6), a gage head (14b) which is horizontally and vertically movable while being supported by the arm (2), and a gauge head (15b) which is also horizontally and vertically movable while being supported by the arm (4). In addition, A gauge heads (14a) and (15a) are provided, both of which are vertically movable. An object is measured in its outer diameter by the gauge heads while being rotatably held by rollers (10a, 10b, 11a and 11b) of the arm (3) and (5). Such a measurement can simultaneously be carried out at two longitudinal portions of the measured object.

    摘要: A process for evaluation of cornering of a vehicle equipped with an automatic transmission by use of electronic transmission control device having a calculation unit, a micro-controller, a memory device and a control device for start up of a hydraulic transmission control device. During a first processing operation (S1), a transverse acceleration (a_Quer) of the vehicle is determined by the calculation unit (30) from wheel speed (n_Rad) of the vehicle measured by a measuring device (34). During a second processing operation (S2), a driver-type theoretical value (FT_Soll) is determined from a vehicle transverse acceleration (a_Quer) and a vehicle speed (v_F). A gear change characteristic line (SL) is determined, based upon an increment (INKR) between the driver-type theoretical value (FT_Soll) and a driver-type actual value (FT_Ist), from several gear change characteristic lines each one associated with a certain driver type or cornering style.
