  • Publication number: 20230332889
    Abstract: A measuring device may include a housing having a front wall and a rear wall operably coupled to each other via a base portion and defining a receiving space between the front wall and the rear wall, a rotatable vial holder disposed in the receiving space and being configured to hold a vial, and a locking assembly having a locked state in which the rotatable vial holder is prevented from rotating relative to the housing. The locking assembly is also configured to enable the rotatable vial holder to be rotated relative to the housing when the locking assembly is in an unlocked state. The rotatable vial holder may be rotatable to a deployed position to define a selected angle between the base portion and the vial, and rotatable to a storage position in which the vial is enclosed inside the receiving space of the housing.
