Abstract

A tape measure () including a housing () and a measuring tape that can be rolled up into it or drawn out of it, the tape extending from a drum () disposed in the housing, the drum being rotatable by means of a holder element () extending from a handle () and at least in part passing through the first external surface () of the housing and originating from a support (). In order to carry out internal measurements and measurements with a corner-stop position without problems from any orientation, there is provision for the handle () to be displaceably arranged along the drum axis inside the housing (), for the handle () and the support () to merge flush with the first outer lateral surface in a first position (measuring position) or run offset to this surface, and in a second position (use position) to protrude, at least in part, above the first outer lateral surface, in order to engage the element.
