Patent number: 4363171Abstract: This coilable rule and its replacement cartridge comprise a tape mounted in a cartridge adapted to be detachably mounted in turn in a casing. The cartridge constitutes an integral unit and consists of a central post rigid with a lateral flange and of a spool comprising a lateral flange adapted to pivot about the central post. The lateral flange of the central post is formed integrally with an element for retaining the inner end of the tape on the spool, and this element extends over the outer peripheral wall of the spool, from which it is spaced, and is parallel to the central post. Lug means are also provided for holding the cartridge against rotation in the casing.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 1980Date of Patent: December 14, 1982Assignee: Stanley Mabo, S.A.Inventor: Louis Scandella

Patent number: 4238083Abstract: A winding drum for a flexible tape comprises two side faces and peripheral wall defining spaced first and second grooves. The first groove has a longitudinal axis parallel to the axis of rotation of the drum and has an opening at one end thereof that is defined by one of the side faces and is closed at the other end thereof. First and second pins are located respectively in the first and second grooves whereby an end of a flexible tape may be bent to form a loop and passed around the first pin in the first groove and the tape then passed over the peripheral wall of the drum and the free end of the tape and passed around the second pin in the second groove before being wound around the drum.Type: GrantFiled: April 5, 1979Date of Patent: December 9, 1980Assignee: Stanley-Mabo S.A.Inventors: Louis Scandella, Bernard Faivre

Patent number: 4189107Abstract: A measuring tape is contained in a housing which includes an electric motor for rotating the spool on which the tape is wound to wind the tape up. A safety mechanism is provided to switch the motor off when the tape is fully wound, and a reduction mechanism is provided between the motor and the spool, so that the spool can rotate more slowly than the motor. The instrument is portable and has a handle with which an operating switch may be associated. The motor may be battery driven.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 1978Date of Patent: February 19, 1980Assignee: Stanley-Mabo S.A.Inventors: Michel Quenot, Louis Scandella, Jean-Claude Grillier

Patent number: 4186490Abstract: This tape-type linear measuring instrument comprises a perforated tape adapted to be unwound from or wound on a drum enclosed in a case containing a tape-engaging toothed wheel possibly driven from a motor with the interposition of a speed reducer. Pick-up means responsive to reference marks carried by the wheel or by a member rigid therewith control the operation of an electronic up-and-down counter associated with means for the digital display of the measured length. A shifting pinion may be interposed between the winding drum and the tape-driving toothed wheel to enable the motor to drive the tape both ways. The perforations may be replaced by spaced notches, and a support wheel may be disposed under the tape in co-planar relationship with the driving wheel.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 1978Date of Patent: February 5, 1980Assignee: Stanley-MaboInventor: Michel C. A. Quenot
