  • the protractor 7b comprises a little hole 12 which constitutes its centre.
  • the at least one measuring instrument 7a-7d of plate 1 also comprises at least one template 7c.
  • the at least one template 7c has a set angular width.
  • plate 1 is provided with three templates 7c, with a set angular width, corresponding respectively to the three top angles, that are those located all around hanger hole 6.
  • two of the aforesaid templates 7c have a set angular width of 120 degrees, while the remaining one measures 150 degrees.
  • the width of the different templates 7c can be printed on the surface of plate 1.
  • templates 7c with different angular widths can be realized, according to the specific requirements of application.
  • the angular widths of templates 7c are, for example, chosen among the most frequently used ones in various technical applications.
  • the user can quickly check and verify that given angles that characterize certain technical applications - for example the assembling and installation of household goods and the like - are correct.
  • the at least one measuring instrument 7a-7d comprises a vernier caliper, indicated as a whole by 7d.
  • the vernier calliper 7d comprises a first jaw 13 conformed by the top edge of the left side 8 of plate 1.
  • Said left side 8 of plate 1 comprises a rectilinear guide 14 constituted, for example, by a portion of plate 1 which is of a reduced thickness compared to the thickness of the remaining portions of plate 1 itself.
  • caliper 7d comprises a vernier scale 15.
  • the vernier scale 15, in the exhibition or selling configuration of plate 1 together with item 3 - that is the configuration shown in figure 1 - is linked to plate 1 itself by two small bridges 16.
  • bridges 16 join the vernier scale 15 to the bottom edge 10 of plate 1.
  • Bridges 16 are thin and therefore can be broken by hand or be cut with a simple pair of scissors.
  • the vernier scale 15 can be easily separated from plate 1 and therefore it can be associated to the rectilinear guide 14 provided along the left side 8 of plate 1 by sliding on it, as shown in figure 2 .
  • a millimeter scale is printed on the vernier scale 15, in a way in itself known.
  • the vernier scale 15 comprises a second jaw 17.

  • the sliding means of the vernier scale 15 coupled to the rectilinear guide 14 can be of another similar type.
  • the user can also use, in addition to the other measuring instruments 7a-7c previously described and provided on plate 1, a vernier caliper 7d for measuring the size of small objects with an estimated precision of about one-fifth of a millimeter, or even more, and at a low cost compared to that of the other measuring instruments present in the market.
  • said vernier caliper 7d is incorporated in the same support - that is plate 1 - which also comprises the other measuring instruments 7a-7c, and therefore it can be easily transported and used in unusual or emergency situations as well.
  • the user after purchasing item 3 together with the relative support provided by plate 1, removes strap 5 in order to use item 3 and keeps plate 1 as well.
  • the latter can be used in various technical applications, for example when it is necessary to measure lengths in centimeters or inches, to measure and check angles or thicknesses, or to determine in a quick and precise way the size of nuts or other small metal parts.
  • This solution is particularly useful in unusual or emergency situations, that is when the user is not equipped with a set of measuring instruments necessary to perform the required operations.
  • the plate has reduced sizes and weights, and therefore it can be kept anywhere, for example in a pocket, in the car, in a briefcase or the like.
  • the user within his own technical applications, both in the household and professional field and both in ordinary and emergency situations, can quickly measure lengths and angles, check and verify set angular widths, measure small thicknesses and check the size of small metal components.
  • holes 4, in which strap 5 is inserted in order to hold item 3 can be efficiently employed to fasten other items or can also be used as reference points for drilling holes or for other similar applications.
  • FIG. 3 Another embodiment of the plate for holding objects according to the invention is shown in figure 3 .
  • This embodiment differs from the preceding one - that is the one corresponding to figures 1 and 2 - in that plate 1 comprises at its bottom edge 10, in addition to the already mentioned measuring instruments 7a-7d, a further measuring instrument constituted by a small machinist square, indicated as a whole by 7e.
  • the small square 7e comprises a protrusion 18 perpendicular to the bottom edge 10 of plate 1.
  • a millimeter scale is printed along Lhe rectilinear side 19 of Lhe protrusion 18.
  • Square 7e is associated to ruler 7a located alongside the bottom edge 10 of plate 1.
  • plate 1 according to the invention can thus be used in further technical applications, both in the household and professional field, for example to draw right angles of set sizes.
  • iL comprises, in addition to the already mentioned measuring instruments 7a-7e, a further measuring instrument constituted by a notch, indicated as a whole by 7f, for the selective measuring of nuts, screws, pins, drills, nails and the like.
  • Notch 7f is realized along the left side 8 of plate 1, substantially close to the bottom edge 10.
  • Notch 7f comprises portions 20 with a progressively decreasing width from the mouth of the notch 7f until its end.
  • the various portions 20 of the notch 7f have respectively decreasing widths for example from 7mm to 2 mm.
  • the diameter of drills, screws, pins, bars and the like or the thickness of plates or other elements used in said applications can be quickly measured in any situation.

Thanks to these graphic reproductions 7g, the user can quickly and efficiently determine the size of a nut in his possession, by simply moving it closer or overlapping it with the graphic reproductions 7g, in order to find the one corresponding to the size of said nut.
  • the sliding guide 14 of the vernier caliper 7d is constituted by a groove; the sliding means of the vernier scale 15 coupled to the guide 14 comprise a cog 21 of the vernier scale 15 itself that is inserted in said groove.
  • FIG 5 Another embodiment of the plate for holding objects according to the present invention is shown in figure 5 .
  • This embodiment of the plate differs from the one in figure 4 in that the plate is provided with a bigger protractor 7b that is therefore more practical and effective to use.
