  • Patent number: 6901676
    Abstract: A device and method are provided for inspecting an eccentric bushing having interior and exterior surfaces. The device includes a fixed roller and a pair of movable rollers disposed in a triangular configuration. The eccentric roller is disposed between the fixable roller and the movable rollers such that the fixed roller is disposed against an interior surface of the bushing and the movable rollers are disposed against the exterior surface of the bushing. A contact element of a gauge is disposed between the movable rollers and against the exterior surface of the bushing. Rotation of the eccentric bushing moves the contact element, which causes a display of the gauge to provide readings showing changes in the distance between the interior and exterior surfaces of the bushing.
