Abstract: An inclination measuring apparatus having a prism and a container having a liquid sealed therein for providing a liquid surface perpendicular to the direction of gravity. A member constructed from thermal conductive material is position under the liquid surface to maintain the liquid surface level in the presence of ambient temperature changes.

Abstract: There is disclosed a rotation axis fine adjustment apparatus for finely adjusting rotation of a mounting portion rotatably mounted on a rotation axis with respect to a base portion through a fastening frame by suitably fastening and finely adjusting the rotation axis.

Abstract: A displacement measuring device, using an incremental code, which includes a coding member (22) resting on the object (21) to be measured and having a coding section for generating such signals that a sensing element can discriminate the signals as 0 or 1, sensing means (25A, 25B) disposed to sense the coding section of the coding member for producing sensed signal in response to the displacement of the coding member (22), and rectangular wave-converting circuits (27A, 27B) for receiving and converting the sensed signal into rectangular wave signals. A clock pulse generator (28) is provided in the device for generating a clock pulse with a higher repetition-frequency than the repetition-frequency of the sensed signal.
