  • Protraction device for a measuring microscope
    Patent number: 5621565
    Abstract: A protraction device for a measuring microscope comprises a reticle aligned on an optical path of the microscope at an intermediate image plane thereof and adapted for rotation about a central axis, and an angle encoder operably coupled to the reticle such that when the angle encoder is rotated about its rotational axis, a corresponding rotation is produced in the reticle. The angle encoder provides a signal representative of an angular displacement of the reticle which is delivered to a printer, digital display, or the like.
