The device, shown associated with a bore measuring machine, comprises two elements in engagement in the form of a bolt (20) and a nut (21) of reversible relative axial rotation and displacement. The bolt (20) is a threaded cylindrical sleeve mounted coaxial to the measurement rod (4) of the machine and with free rotation between two stops (9, 23) thereof, and the nut (21) is formed by an inner thread on the cylindrical body (1) of the machine. The force of friction developed by the relative bolt-nut rotation is adapted to yield to at least the pressure of the return spring (7) of the measurement rod and to constitute a brake for modulating the speed of the displacements in both directions of the measurement rod (4) in the body of the machine.

Shock-resistant device for a measuring machine

An instrument composed of a measurement head (1) and a fixed stop (2) which are connected by a body (3) formed of interchangeable extension pieces (4, 5), the instrument being intended to check the dimensions of bulky parts. The two contact stops (12) of this instrument are offset at the end of two parallel measurement feelers (10, 11). With each of these two contact members there is associated an instrument for measuring their inclination, which consists of an electronic clinometer (25, 26). The two clinometers are connected to an apparatus (30) for reading the inclination of the two measurement feelers. The inclination of one of the two measurement feelers (11) is adjustable by means of an operating screw (17). In this way it is possible to reestablish parallelism of the measurement feelers when the instrument bends, upon measurements of large dimensions.

Instrument for measuring linear magnitudes

A shock absorbing device for use in dial measuring instruments comprising a balance lever interposed between a pinion and a coaxial toothed wheel of the multiplier mechanism disposed between the movable indicator member and the movable feeler of the instrument, said balance lever being pivoted on the common axis of said pinion and toothed wheel and intercepting during its pivotal movement in one and the same direction a first radial driving finger integral with an arm connected to the pinion and a second radial driving finger integral with said toothed wheel, a resilient liaison being formed between the balance lever and the radial driving fingers by the opposed action of the ends of at least a spiral spring connected at its inner end to said balance lever.

Shock absorbing device for use in dial measuring instruments

A centering and measuring head for measuring machines, comprising a tubular body in which a piston is slidably mounted and subjected to the continuous action of biassing means, at least two centering contact pieces mounted to pivot on shafts provided in the body tangentially on an imaginary circle concentric with the axis of the piston, the movements of the said centering contact pieces being controlled by the said piston, and means for monitoring the displacements of the piston against the action of the biassing restraining element.
