A level comprising a level body and a bubble vial mounted on the level body. The bubble vial includes a bubble vial body comprising a clear material and an internal cavity containing a liquid. A top opening in the level body that interrupts at least a portion of a top wall to accommodate the bubble vial. An internal support structure disposed within the tubular configuration of the level body and spanning longitudinally along the level body so as to be disposed on both sides of the top opening to provide structural support to the level body in the vicinity of the top opening. A carrier positioned beneath the bubble vial and between the internal support structure and the bubble vial. The bubble vial body has a length that is less than a length of the top opening in the top wall of the level body.

This unique and novel invention provides a telescoping level device used to effectively and efficiently measure the slope of objects and surfaces. The device comprises a telescoping arm, a ball joint, a level, and one or more contactors. The device allows the user to easily, accurately, and quickly verify the in-situ slope of pipes as well as a plurality of other objects and surfaces. The length and angle of the telescoping arm, relative to the level, are adjustable to prevent the user from unnecessarily stooping, kneeling, or climbing.

A tool, such as a level, including one or more polymer/plastic body segment, protective cover and/or seal is provided. The covers discussed herein may limit or prevent dirt or construction materials, such as concrete, from entering into the level body. The cover may also be a non-stick material, such as a polymer outer sleeve, that limits the ability of dirt and construction material to adhere to the level. The level may also include scratch resistant vial windows.

A level with a clip and removable end cap is provided. The end cap includes an outer member and locking member received within a clip that is affixed inside an end of the level. The locking member is inserted into the outer member pushing a moveable portion of the outer member into an engagement, such as a shearing engagement, that holds the end cap assembly in place relative to the level body. The clip includes a projection that interfaces with an aperture in the level frame.

An extendible or adjustable length level is provided. The level includes a locking mechanism allowing the user to fix the level at a selected or desired level. The locking system allows the user to lock the level at the desired length and provides more effective and robust locking than conventional expanding levels. In some embodiments, the locking mechanism is designed such that translational movement of the user-actuated control (as opposed to rotational motion) is used to move the locking mechanism into the locked position.

A foldable horizontal ruler, comprising a ruler body having at least two or more ruler units, wherein a connecting end is arranged on the ruler unit, a connecting block is arranged between the ruler units, and the connecting end forms a rotating kit with the connecting block so that the adjacent ruler units can be folded. The connecting end, arranged on the ruler unit, is provided with a connecting block, and the adjacent ruler units can be folded through the connecting block. The ruler body can be folded in multiple segments by designing more than one set of ruler body units, which makes the storage or carrying become more convenient. The magnet is arranged on the rotating shaft and the fixed pin, and the end of the ruler unit exposed. The magnet forms adsorption with the measured object, which reduces long-time lifting and reduces the user's level of fatigue.
