Handle assembly for a measuring wheel

Abstract

A measuring wheel may include a wheel assembly which may include at least one wheel, a handle assembly which may include a handle and a handle shaft, a housing to which the handle assembly and the wheel assembly may be operably coupled, and an analog counting assembly which may convert rotation of the at least one wheel into a distance traveled by the measuring wheel. The analog counting assembly may include a counter disposed at the handle of the measuring wheel, a first gear mesh disposed at the handle and operably coupled to the counter, a handle alignment member which may support the first gear mesh proximate to the counter, a second gear mesh operably coupled to the wheel assembly, and a flexible cable mechanically operably coupling the counter to the wheel assembly via the first and second gear meshes.
