10458790 · 2019-10-29 · ·

The present disclosure relates to a space and dimension determining device, which is useful for placement, mounting, hanging and leveling a picture, shelving, or any other object onto a receiving surface. The present device is capable of locking into position capturing the dimensions and allowing for measureless transfer of dimensions from one place to another. The present disclosure further relates to a device incorporating a laser, either as part of, or a separate, attachable feature to, the present device, the laser being useful for assisting in determining center points, and a plurality of dimensions and readings equal distance from the center point. The present disclosure also relates to a system and method of transferring dimensions from a space determining device to an electronic communication device, which is used to create a template for placement of an item or items within a target space.

SPIRIT LEVEL

The invention pertains to a spirit level (10) comprising a base body (12) with a first measuring sole (52) and a runner element (14) with a second measuring sole (54), being connected to the latter and able to move relative to it in its longitudinal direction, wherein the first and the second measuring sole run at the same level. In order to accomplish a low-friction displacement, it is provided that a first sliding element (26) emerges from the base body (12), which interacts by form fitting with the runner element (14) for a section and applies force to it in or approximately in the normal direction of the measuring soles (52, 54), and a second sliding element (28) emerges from the runner, which interacts by form fitting with the base body for a section and applies force to the runner element in or approximately in the direction of the measuring soles.

Deployable animal measuring platform
11985956 · 2024-05-21 ·

A deployable animal measuring platform suited for measuring dog height or any other dog body measurement profile is presented. The deployable animal measuring platform contains a base, a panel, and a measuring element. The panel is connected vertically perpendicular to the base through a fastening element, where the panel and the base is configured to assemble in a deployed configuration or a retracted configuration. In the retracted configuration, the base and the panel are folded and connected parallel to each other, such that the deployable animal measuring platform is easily transportable and stored. In the deployed configuration, the base is secured along a flat surface while the panel is erected vertically from the base. The measuring element traverses along the panel.

A device for measuring container includes an elongated guide plate transversely mounted on an open top of a container. At least one elongated ruler is inserted into an interior of the container from the open top, and the end face of the distal end of the at least one elongated ruler contacts the inner end of the interior. The mediate section of the at least one elongated ruler contacts the elongated guide plate to obtain a first index. The at least one elongated ruler is moved to the exterior of the container and contacts a surface which is located on a common surface with the underside of the exterior of the container. The mediate section of the at least one elongated ruler contacts the elongated guide plate to obtain a second index. The difference between the first and second indexes is the thickness of the bottom of the container.
