Abstract
By providing a captured roller construction as the movement assembly for a sensing element, a low cost, accurate, measuring instrument is achieved. In the present invention, the movement of the sensing element causes the movement assembly to produce rotational motion in direct response thereto. As a result, any change in the level of the source condition being monitored is immediately indicated on a visual readout, due to the responsive rotational motion of the movement assembly. By employing captured rollers as the principal means for attaining rotational motion, an easily constructed, dependable, low cost movement assembly and measuring instrument construction is realized.
