Abstract
405,810. Clinometers. BENNETT, H., Box 216, Galvestone, Texas, U.S.A. Feb. 27, 1933, No. 5913. [Class 97 (ii).] Relates to clinometers, particularly for determining the trim of ships, in which a pivoted arm b carrying a spirit level h is adapted to be angularly adjusted by a screw c. To ensure that equal rotational movements of the screw effect equal angular movements of the arm, the latter rests on a bearing surface l which is moved by the screw and is curved with a radius equal to the distance between the axes of the screw and arm pivot m. In the form shown, the screw c is rotatably mounted in the carrier e and is adapted to move the sleeve d carrying the bearing surface l. The carrier e may be adjusted along a dove-tail groove p in the base plate in accordance with the size of the ship as indicated on a scale n on the arm b. The screw c is geared at i to pointers moving over a dial k and indicating the difference in level between the ends of the ship. Interchangeable bearing surfaces l may be provided.
