The present disclosure discloses a device (100) for determining orientation of an object. The device includes a hollow spherical member (101), which is filled with a fluid medium (109). A plurality of sensors (102) is positioned on a circumference of the hollow spherical member. Further, the device comprises a light source (104) fixed within the hollow spherical member, and a capsule (103) is disposed within the hollow spherical member. The capsule is configured to displace within the hollow spherical member and occupy uppermost point of the hollow spherical member. The capsule covers the one or more sensors at the corresponding uppermost point and, thus blocks impingement of light on to corresponding one or more sensors. The blocked one or more sensors activate or deactivate, and generate a feedback or input signal, which is received by a computing unit (107), to determine orientation of the object.

An instrument for determining level or plumb orientations includes an elongated body having a plurality of orientation measurement devices. Each of the orientation measurement devices can indicate either a level or plumb orientation depending on a position of the instrument. The orientation measurement devices each include a chamber having front and rear convex sides, a fluid contained in the chamber, and an air bubble floating in the fluid. The elongated body includes a set of first openings and a set of second openings. The orientation measurement devices are embedded into the elongated body through the first set of openings and the orientation measurement devices each include bubble therein viewable from the front and back of the elongated body. The bubble is also viewable from the top and bottom of the elongated body through the second set of openings.

A level includes a frame having a top planar surface, a bottom planar surface, and a web coupling the top planar surface to the bottom planar surface. The top planar surface and the bottom planar surface are parallel. The level further includes a vial supported by the frame. The vial has a longitudinal axis passing through a center of the vial and a body defining an interior containing a liquid and an indicator bubble. The level further includes a plurality of LEDs. Each of the LEDs has a light emitting point, and each of the plurality of LEDs is positioned adjacent an end of the vial and is oriented such that the light emitting point is positioned within the interior of the body of the vial.

A combination of a cover plate and a drain, preferably a floor drain is described. The cover plate is provided with first locking means and the drain is provided with cooperating second locking means for releasable connection of the cover plate to the floor drain. The cover plate is a temporary cover plate for use during installation of the drain. The cover plate may be used for a temporary protection of a drain during installation of the drain and for installing and adjusting the inclination of the drain without the need of separate levelling tools. To obtain this the cover plate is provided with levelling means for determining the orientation of the cover plate and thereby also the drain in relation to a horizontal or a vertical plane. The first locking means or the second locking means comprises a weakening arranged such that at least a part of the locking means is preferably damaged when the cover plate is removed from the drain to ensure that the cover is not reused.

A combined square leveling for combing multiple construction tools into a single device includes a framer's square for measuring angles during construction. A tape measure is retractably positioned within the framer's square and the tape measure is urgeable outwardly from the framer's square for measuring distance. The tape measure is biased to retract into the framer's square. A bubble level is coupled to the framer's square to determine if a surface is level. A laser level is slidably coupled to the framer's square to emit a beam of light to establish a reference point on a distal object.
