    摘要: A gauge probe for a handheld combination coating thickness gauge allows the combination coating thickness gauge to measure both nonferrous coatings on ferrous substrate and nonconductive coatings on conductive nonferrous substrate. The gauge probe enables the combination coating thickness gauge to determine automatically, with a single probe, the substrate characteristics, and to effect a measurement of the coating thickness on that substrate. The technique used to measure coatings on a ferrous substrate utilizes a permanent magnet to provide a constant magnetic flux and a Hall sensor and thermistor arranged to measure the temperature-compensated magnetic flux density at one of the poles of the permanent magnet. The flux density at the magnet pole can be related to a nonferrous coating thickness on a ferrous substrate. The technique used to measure nonconductive coatings on a conductive nonferrous substrate utilizes eddy current effects. A coil near the gauge probe tip is excited by an alternating current oscillating between about 6 MHz and about 12 MHz. The coil sets up eddy currents on the surface of the conducting substrate. The resulting eddy currents set up an opposing magnetic field which in turn have an effect on the excited coil. The eddy current effects on the coil are quantified, and the degree of the eddy current effects on the coil are related to the nonconductive coating thickness on a conductive substrate. The gauge probe detects the substrate type and automatically determines the coating thickness on the detected substrate.

    摘要: A coating thickness gauge includes a measurement transducer and a particularly advantageous probe arrangement. The probe arrangement includes a probe assembly and a probe housing that encircles the probe assembly. The probe assembly may include an inductor that forms a part of an LC oscillator. The gauge is able to measure the thickness of coatings on magnetic and non-magnetic substrates through use of the same probe assembly. Alternatively, the probe assembly can include a capacitor forming a part of an LC or an RC oscillator. The bottom surface of the probe housing has two oppositely positioned V-shaped grooves formed therein for facilitating the measurement of coating thicknesses on convex surfaces. The outer peripheral surface of the probe housing includes two spaced apart flat surfaces connected together by two arcuate surfaces for stabilizing the gauge during measurement of coating thicknesses on concave surfaces. The probe assembly is mounted within the gauge housing in a manner that is adapted to facilitate movement of the probe assembly in a substantially vertical plane. All functions of the gauge can be operated through the use of the two keys and the gauge only requires a zeroing adjustment rather than a several step calibration procedure.

    摘要: A coin acceptor includes first and second members initially spaced apart from one another and frictionally carrying a third member. Moving the first and second members toward one another displaces the third member a distance corresponding to the weight of the coin selectively positioned on the third member. The distance which the third member is displaced is compared with a reference position.
