  • Patent number: 5146158
    Abstract: The cross coil type meter has a magnet rotor and a stopper plate inside a coil bobbin. The magnet rotor is driven by a combined magnetic field produced by a cross coil wound on the coil bobbin. A pointer on a dial plate is attached to the magnet rotor's shaft so that it can indicate the magnitude of a measured quantity. The stopper plate engages with the magnet rotor to stop the pointer at a zero position on the dial plate. But when due to some assembly errors the stop position of the pointer and the zero position on the dial plate do not agree, the position of engagement between the magnet rotor and the stopper plate can be adjusted by manipulating the stopper plate from outside until the two positions agree.
