Abstract
A combination instrument, for use in making biomechanical measurements of the limbs, joints, and appendages of a human body, comprises a scaled straightedge adapted to slidably receive thereon a set of mutually cooperative caliper arms which, themselves, slidably carry body-contacting pads for adjustable placement relative to each other longitudinally of the caliper arms and relative to body irregularities, one of which arms carries a gravity meter for indicating angle measurements, the straightedge being further adapted to pivotally receive at one end thereof a protractor device for rotational movement relative to the straightedge and the caliper arms.
