Abstract: The invention relates to a device for capturing a laser beam, comprising a receiver unit having a housing with a front surface, along one side of which a measurement region capturing the laser beam that comprises a sensor associated therewith runs, and a mounting (24), which can be detachably connected to the housing and comprises a preferably polygonal column-shaped base body and clamping jaws (30, 32). To allow the receiver to be oriented with respect to both a horizontal laser beam and a laser beam that is inclined with respect to the horizontal, using the mounting that can be detachably connected to the housing, the base body has a trapezoidal geometry comprising an outer longitudinal lateral surface, along which outer surfaces of the clamping jaws (30, 32) run, which overall form a support surface of the mounting on a base when the housing is oriented at an incline with respect to the vertical.

Abstract: The invention concerns a spirit level (10) including a base body (11), e.g., in the form of a hollow profile, as well as a bubble level vial (12), formed of a vial body (14) with enclosed cavity (16), preferably of barrel shape, the vial being secured in the base body by means of a holder (28).
