Abstract

694,140. Measuring-tapes. WALL, Ltd., H. March 21, 1952 [April 11, 1951], No. 8438/51. Class 106 (ii). A measuring - tape comprises a flexible tape 4 coiled upon a rotatable support within a casing having an aperture 6a so shaped and disposed that the tape, as it is withdrawn through the aperture, extends in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the coiled tape. In the embodiments shown in Figs. 4, 6 the aperture 6a is perpendicular to the axis of the coil and may itself give the necessary twist to the tape or preferably the co-operating parts 1, 2 of the casing may be thickened near the aperture to form guides as at 10. A straight edge of the casing may be graduated similarly to the tape.
