Abstract
An internal measuring device with a measuring unit comprising a measuring bolt and a fixed measuring contact. In order to facilitate the centering of the device inside the bore for measurement to be made the fixed contact member is provided with at least one roller. This ensures that the device moves automatically into the central plane of the bore to be measured.
Claims2
An internal measuring device including a measuring unit with a fixed contact member, a movable contact member supported in the measuring unit, a transmission element engaging said movable contact member, an indicator gauge mounted in said measuring unit in engagement with said transmission element and a spring acting on the movable contact member to urge it outwardly, wherein at least one of the contact members is provided with at least one roller supporting the measuring device on the bore wall to be measured at least during part of the measuring process and, as a result of its directional force, ensuring that said device is centrally located in the bore, one roller located on one side of the fixed contact member so that it supports itself on the bore wall when the device is inclined relative to the bore axis and thus carries out its centering function whereas the fixed contact member supports itself on the bore wall when the measuring units assumes its perpendicular position relative to the bore axis.
