Abstract
A level gauge includes a housing, a vertical member, and a perpendicular member. The housing includes a bottom wall and a side wall. A surface of the side wall includes a first scale. The bottom wall and the side wall enclose a receiving cavity. The vertical member is arranged in the receiving cavity and includes an axis maintained in a vertical orientation in a natural state. A center of gravity of the perpendicular member is arranged on top of the vertical member. A plane of the perpendicular member is maintained perpendicular to the axis of the vertical member. When the bottom wall is placed on a gauging surface, an inclination angle and inclination direction of the gauging surface are obtained simultaneously.

A level gauge comprising:
- a housing comprising a bottom wall and a side wall, a surface of the side wall comprising a first scale, and the bottom wall and the side wall enclosing a receiving cavity;
- a vertical member in the receiving cavity and comprising an axis maintained in a vertical orientation in a natural state;
- and
- a perpendicular member, a center of gravity of the perpendicular member being arranged on top of the vertical member, and a plane of the perpendicular member being maintained perpendicular to the axis of the vertical member;
- wherein:
- when the bottom wall is placed on a gauging surface, the axis of the vertical member is maintained in the vertical orientation to drive the plane of the perpendicular member to be in a horizontal orientation, a corresponding maximum value of the perpendicular member on the first scale is an inclination angle of the gauging surface, and a straight line between the center of gravity of the perpendicular member and the maximum value is an inclination direction of the gauging surface.
A level gauge comprising:
- a housing comprising a bottom wall and a side wall, a surface of the side wall provided with a first scale, and the bottom wall and the side wall enclosing a receiving cavity;
