摘要:
An apparatus for measuring apparel, having an elongated member with a surface, a first reference point on the surface and a second marking on said surface such that the distance between said first reference point and the second marking is equal to the distance from the neck to the crotch of an average person at a particular age and a third marking on the surface such that the distance between the first reference point and the third marking is equal to the distance from the neck to the crotch of an average person at a second particular age.

A measuring tape is provided for quick determination of the center of a distance without requiring the calculation of the distance. The measuring tape includes two parallel edges and an ascending measuring scale along each edge printed on the same face of the tape and beginning at the same end of the tape. One of the scales has units calibrated to a conventional unit of length measurement. The second measuring scale has units calibrated to be exactly half the unit of the first scale.

An apparatus for therapeutic treatment of a patient. A measuring tape is used to measure the heel-to-crown height of a patient. The tape has coded zones along its effective length. A dispenser is provided with correspondingly coded zones whereby a treatment administered using the coding of the dispenser is correlated to the heel-to-crown height of a patient as measured by the tape.

A masons scale for use in laying courses of brick, adapted to allow a mason to calculate appropriate mortar thicknesses between rows of bricks when constructing a brick wall, so as to evenly space the rows of bricks in such wall. Such scale consists of a plurality of groups of mutually adjacent, individually colored bands arranged along a substantially elongate, flat surface, each group spaced a progressively decreasing distance apart from the next group progressing from bottom to top of the scale, the midpoint of each colored band spaced a uniform distance from the midpoint of a correspondingly colored band in an adjacent group of colored bands. A masonry guide incorporating such scale is also provided, further comprising an elongate post member, and bracket means affixed at each end of the post member, to allow the masonry guide and the associated scale to be affixed to the side of a structure in a vertically upright position.

A measuring tape has indicia thereon for measuring a patient, the indicia representing increments of a physical treatment or physiological procedure based upon a correlation between the length of a patient and that procedure. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is an example of the type of values which can be correlated to body length and placed on the tape.

A large surface to be lined with a covering cut precisely to size, e.g. a wall of a room or building to be paneled or papered, is marked with strips of adhesive measuring tape posted thereon along orthogonally intersecting lines to divide its area into zones whose dimensions can be accurately read thereon. The strips may be left in position when the covering is applied and, advantageously, have centerlines determining the boundaries of adjoining zones, the covering being divided into sections abutting one another along these boundaries.

A pipe fitter's tape measuring strip of 25 foot length is marked on one surface thereof with cumulative inch markings along one edge, with information providing take-off charts along the other edge at a leading end of the strip and with cumulative foot and inch markings following the charts along the remainder of the strip length. The opposite surface of the strip is marked with charts providing information of flange sizes related to different pipe sizes.

A fastening apparatus for a measuring device including a bending resistant scale comprises a plurality of resilient fastening elements for mounting the scale to a support surface. Each of these fastening elements is securely mounted to a support surface and acts resiliently to apply a mounting force to the scale, which mounting force is sufficient to hold the scale in place, substantially without distorting the scale. In the illustrated embodiment the mounting force is independent of the force with which the fastening elements are mounted to the support surface.
摘要:
An optical device for measuring the angles formed between a line-of-sight and the normal to a planar surface intersected thereby. A solid piece of optically transparent material having a relatively large index of refraction is geometrically shaped to have a planar base surface, with a reference mark theron, and a curvilinear viewing surface with scale marks to designate angular orientations. The exterior surfaces are optically polished to create mirrored surfaces for internal reflection. To accentuate contrast, the planar surface containing the reference mark is coated with a layer of contrasting opaque material. Angles are measured by placing the planar base surface of the device on the planar surface intersected by the line-of-sight and aligning the reference mark with the point of intersection. When viewed from the observation point defining the line-of-sight, an image of the reference mark appears on the scaled surface at a location representing the line-of-sight angle.

An instrument for precise measurement and setting of distances has an electronically controlled scale comprising optically active elements, an electronically controlled digital display, and a keyboard. The display and keyboard are mechanically rotatable and connected by electronic circuitry including a microprocessor. The light scale provides optical indicia, including a reference point and a cursor, having positions which are determined by keyboard entries and are displayed numerically.
