Description

The invention relates to a hand-held measuring device for measuring a length dimension on a component with a length caliper, which comprises a Längenmessskalateil with a length measuring scale and a linearly displaceably mounted thereto stop sliding part.

Generic hand-held measuring devices are well known from the prior art and are used, for example, for measuring or checking a length dimension on a component or workpiece.

It is an object of the present invention to improve the field of application and the use of a generic hand-held measuring device.

The object of the invention is achieved by a hand-held measuring device for measuring a length dimension on a component with a length caliper, which comprises a Längenmessskalateil with a Längenmessskala and a linearly displaceably mounted thereto stop sliding part, and wherein arranged on the Längenmessskalateil a corresponding with the linearly displaceable Anschlagschiebeteil rotatable Winkelanschlagteil is.

Characterized in that according to the invention on the Längenmessskalateil arranged with the linearly displaceable Anschlagschiebeteil rotatable Winkelanschlagteil is arranged, it is only possible with a hand-held device to measure both a measure of length and an angle, for example on an angled component, in one operation.

In order to be able to determine an angle existing between two component angles and to be able to easily read it on the hand-held measuring device, it is advantageous if the hand-held measuring device comprises an angle measuring unit for measuring one between the length measuring scale part and the rotatable angle stop part.

Especially with such angled components, it is often problematic to measure the true length of a component leg with respect to the intersection of Schenkelausßenmaßes. But just this length in relation to the intersection of the Schenkelaußenmaßes plays when setting bending radii on bending machines a central role in order to obtain exactly the required thigh depths on the component, for example, on a component with a defined component depth.

In this respect, it is particularly helpful if the Längenmessskalateil and rotatable Winkelanschlagteil are rotatably connected to each other in a common axis of rotation, wherein the common axis of rotation and the Längenmessskala the Längenmessskalateils are arranged to each other such that the leg length of a component leg with respect to the intersection of Schenkelaußenmaßes an angled Component between the generated by a first leg portion on a first component leg and the generated by a second leg portion vertex and one end of the component leg is measurable.

Is on the Längenmessskalateil a Winkelmessskalateil the angle measuring unit and arranged on the rotatable Winkelanschlagteil a pointer part of the angle measuring unit, or vice versa, not only the length of the component leg to be measured, but also immediately also the angle between the two angularly arranged component legs on the present hand-held device be read.

In addition, the Winkelmessskalateil could be removably or hinged to the Längenmessskalateil, thereby achieving a compact transport state of the hand-held device, so that the hand-held device can be easily stowed when not in use.

It is particularly advantageous if the abutment sliding part is mounted translationally and a further abutment part interacting with the abutment sliding part for measuring the length dimension is mounted rotatably on the length measuring scale part. It seems completely absurd, the further stop member, by means of which in interaction with the stop sliding part so far the length dimension of a component is measured, to fix rotationally on the Längenmessskalateil. However, this makes it possible in a surprisingly simple way to measure an angular position of two component legs on an angled component with a single hand-held device. And not enough. It was recognized in this case that by means of such a hand-held measuring device, the true length of the leg dimension to be measured can be determined exactly with respect to the point of intersection of the two component legs. This was previously not possible in this way, or only very inaccurate, but then only with the help of another measuring means.

The hand-held instrument can be used on the one hand very versatile and on the other hand easy to use, when the stop slide part and designed as an angle stop part further stop member are arranged independently adjustable on the Längenmessskalateil.

The measurements can be further simplified if a stop surface of the linearly displaceably mounted stop sliding part projects at right angles from the length measuring scale part carrying it.

Are the Längenmessskalateil and a Winkelmessskalateil arranged in a common component plane, the hand-held device can be very narrow and thus built very compact.

If the length measuring scale and an angle measuring scale are arranged on a common side of the hand-held measuring device or the length measuring scale part, the danger of reading errors can be significantly reduced so that the hand-held measuring device can also be used reliably by untrained personnel.

In addition, the length measuring scale and an angle measuring scale can be designed as digital displays. Also, a memory device may be provided on the hand-held measuring device in order to be able to temporarily store measured values. Advantageously, these values can be used for subsequent bending processes on a bending machine or the like in order to be able to easily take account of any correction values in subsequent bending processes.

A no less advantageous solution to the present object can be achieved by a hand-held measuring device for measuring an angle with a first leg portion, a second leg portion and an angle measuring unit for reading an enclosed between the two leg portions angle, wherein the two leg portions rotatable about a common axis of rotation with each other are connected, and wherein the hand-held device is characterized in that a length caliper with a Längenmessskalateil is arranged on at least one of the two leg portions. As a result of this, on the one hand, both an angle measurement and a length measurement can be carried out manually with only a single hand-held measuring device and, on the other hand, a component limb length can be determined with respect to the intersection outside dimension of an angled component.

Also advantageous is a hand-held measuring device for measuring surface dimensions of a component in which the hand-held measuring device has a first measuring part and a second measuring part for application to a first surface section and for measuring the length thereof, and wherein the hand-held angle measuring device has a third connected pivotably to one of the two measuring parts Measuring part which bears against a second surface portion of the component, which is arranged at an angle to be measured of 0.1 ° to 180 ° to the first surface portion of the component, wherein the two surface portions have a flat surface.

It is understood that these two latter solutions can be further developed by further advantageous features explained here.

In this respect, if necessary, the features of the solutions described above can also be combined in order to be able to implement their advantages in a cumulative manner.
