Abstract: The modular bore gauge system comprises a plurality of modular spring-loaded bore gauge head adaptors, each having a bore gauge head on a first end thereof and having a female threaded second end, a plurality of modular spring-loaded depth extensions, each having a first male threaded end and a second female threaded end and configured to have its first end screwed onto the second end of one bore gauge head adaptors or to have its first end screwed onto the second end of another one of the depth extensions, and a modular indicator adaptor, configured to have an indicator fitted on a first end thereof and a male threaded second end and configured to have its second end screwed onto the second end of one of the bore gauge head adaptors or screwed onto the second end of a last in line of one of the depth extensions.
Abstract: The present disclosure describes an improved horizontal beam optical comparator that includes a probe to follow the surface of a work-piece, moreover, providing a method for gathering changes in height and depth to measure, plot and delineate surface contours of work-pieces relative to a movable “X” axis stage, and depth along a moveable “Y” axis stage without presence in the objective lenses depth of field.
Abstract: A large bore measuring system includes a modular and extendable bore gage with analog and digital readouts, also includes a settable set-master. The modular bore gage is designed to measure two sets of large bore diameters. A first set of large bores is accomplished by using a modular bore gage design described in this disclosure. The second set of larger bores is accomplished by adding attachments therein extending the gage for the larger range of bore diameters. A set-master is used for both sets of large bores.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a method for illuminating an object and projecting its image on a ground glass screen. Optical comparators conventionally use incandescent illumination, either mercury arc or halogen. The use of an array of high intensity LED devices, provides many options for packaging the required optical components used in comparators.
Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus for measuring inside diameters of holes using a dial bore gage with a packaged digital transducer providing an amplified readable output to both dial indicator and digital display enabling wireless data transmission for recording its measured output.
