Abstract: An angle wrench has a simple structure and is capable of accurately measuring rotation angle. The angle wrench is used for tightening an object to be tightened by means of the rotation angle method, and includes a handle having a grip; a head section having a tightening head for tightening the object to be tightened, and a tail section that extends from the tightening head pivotally supported with respect to the handle via a head pin; torque-detecting mechanisms for detecting when the torque for tightening the object being tightened reaches the specified torque; and a rotation angle-measuring section for measuring the rotation angle of the angle wrench in a tightening action, on the basis of the angular velocity of the angle wrench around the axis of the object being tightened, after the torque-detecting mechanism has detected that the specified torque has been reached.

Abstract: A touch signal probe used in a coordinate measuring instrument or the like having a probe to brought into contact with a workpiece to be measured and outputting an electrical signal when in contact with the workpiece.

Abstract: In the dial gage with releasing means of the invention the end of the spindle opposite to the end having the measuring point mounted thereon projects from the stem of an inner frame and has a connection plate mounted thereto by means of a set screw. A tube comprising part of the releasing means is mounted at one end thereof to the connection plate, and a wire within this tube is used to exert pressure against the outer circumferential surface of the inner frame.
