Abstract
An isometric ellipse scale for drawing ellipse of different size, comprising a body, a plurality of isometric ellipse molding plates that set one inside another, two fastening slides, and a casing for keeping said parts. The body and the isometric ellipse molding plates have each two pairs of parallel rails at two opposite ends and respectively longitudinally aligned so that the fastening slide can be respectively fastened therein to selectively secure the isometric ellipse molding plates to the body for drawing ellipse. The casing has an elliptical, raised portion at the center of the inner bottom thereof and made in size according to the elliptical center hole of the smallest one of the isometric ellipse molding plates for holding the isometric ellipse molding plates and the body in position.
Claims3
An isometric ellipse scale, comprising:
- a body having an elliptical opening at the center, two pairs of parallel rails on the top edge thereof at two opposite ends, said two pairs of parallel rails each defining therein a dovetailed sliding way, a plurality of ellipse molding holes of different size on the top surface thereof at one side relative to said elliptical opening, a linear scale on the to surface thereof at an opposite side relative to said elliptical opening, and a plurality of raised portions symmetrically disposed at the bottom thereof;
- a plurality of isometric ellipse molding plates that set one inside another with the topmost edge fitting flush with one another, each having an ellipse molding hole for drawing an ellipse and each being marked with markings for indicating the related diameter and major axis or minor axis, said isometric ellipse molding plates being releasably fastened in said body at said elliptical opening;
- two fastening slides having each a dovetailed cross section suiting the size of said dovetailed sliding way, and movably fastened in said two pairs of parallel rails to secure said isometric ellipse molding plates in said elliptical opening of said body;
- and
- a casing for keeping said body, said fastening slides and said isometric ellipse molding plates.
