This multifunctional morphological measuring apparatus comprising a housing (104) having a slot, and a graduated flexible tape measure (6) inserted into said slot and having a first end held in the housing (104) and a second end (105) disposed at the exterior of the housing (104), the housing (104) enclosing means for winding the tape (6) in said housing (104) and an electronic control system (7) comprising an electronic card (15) having a computer and electronic memory components, the apparatus (100) further comprising means for measuring (12) a morphological index characteristic of a part of the human body (U0) around which the tape is at least partially wound (6).

A device or system including an assessment device with a body with a top surface ruled with a pattern to or instruct students in their parts during a physical position or movement between different positions, such as may be learned in a class or virtual class. The rulings include vertical lines and horizontal lines at various spaces, spacings, and intersections.

A tape measure device for measuring pipes includes a spring return positioned in a housing. A tape is engaged to and is loopedly positioned around the spring return. The tape is selectively extensible from a front of the housing via a slot. A recess in a bottom of the housing extends from the front to a back and to proximate to the slot. A hook engaged to a second end of the tape can selectively engage a terminus of a substrate, enabling a user grasping the housing in a hand to extend the tape along the substrate. Indicia on the tape allow measurement of a distance from the second end of the tape. A fastener on the bottom of the housing can selectively engage the substrate to removably engage the housing to the substrate so that the user can release the housing.

The present invention provides an apparatus for measurement of a limb circumference, comprising a pull string module, a first measurement module and a second measurement module. The pull string module comprises a surrounding component, wherein the surrounding component comprises an encircling part disposed around a limb of an individual; the first measurement module is disposed at the pull string module and moves alone the longitudinal axis of the limb and meanwhile measures the length of the limb; and the second measurement module measures the length of the encircling part simultaneously when the first measurement module move alone the limb, so as to determine the correlation between the limb length and the limb circumference. The present invention further provides a device including two or more apparatuses of the present invention to measure the limb compliance and to be used in the treatment of lymphedema.

An ECU device which estimates a length of a lower limb of a seated person who is seated in a vehicle seat is shown. The ECU device includes the following. A thigh angle information obtainer obtains information regarding a thigh angle of the seated person. A back knee angle information obtainer obtains information regarding a back knee angle of the seated person. An estimator estimates the length of the lower limb of the seated person based on the information regarding the thigh angle obtained by the thigh angle information obtainer and information regarding the back knee angle obtained by the back knee angle information obtainer.

A system for measuring a length of a work piece including a leveling fixture disposed at a first end of the work piece and a range target disposed at a second end. The leveling fixture includes a precision stop abutting against the first end and range finders configured to be substantially aligned with the first end. The range target includes a target stop abutting against the second end and a vertical portion substantially aligned with the second end when the target stop abuts the second end. The range finders are each configured to take measurements between the range finders and the vertical portion of the range target so as to provide a measurement of the length of the work piece.

An orthopedic guide that can comprise a base, a first attachment and a second attachment is disclosed. The base can have a plurality of connection features spaced from one another along a longitudinal extent. The base can be configured to seat on a rim of a bone. The first attachment can be selectively coupled to the base at a first end portion thereof and can be selectively coupled to the base at a second end portion thereof. The first attachment can be arch shaped when coupled to the base. The first attachment can define a first plurality of apertures. The second attachment can be selectively coupled to the base at a first end portion thereof and can be selectively coupled to the base at a second end portion thereof. The second attachment can be arch shaped when coupled to the base. The first attachment can define a second plurality of apertures.

A length measuring device includes a carrier with a scale which extends longitudinally in a measuring direction. A scanning carriage for scanning a measuring graduation of the scale is longitudinally guided in the measuring direction, and, via a coupling, is rigidly coupled to a driver in the measuring direction and transversely thereto coupled to it in a flexible manner. The coupling includes a coupling element arranged between a first coupling point on the scanning carriage and a second coupling point on the driver. At the second coupling point, the coupling element is attached via a solid-body joint that is designed to carry the coupling element so as to be freely rotatable in relation to the driver about an axis of rotation which runs perpendicularly to a plane of the measuring graduation. The coupling element has a lower density than steel and/or a higher modulus of elasticity than steel.
