With a scale mark whose scale value is zero being a starting point, each scale mark of an arbitrarily specified scale value interval is temporarily numbered one by one from zero in order. A display method is different between a scale mark whose least significant number of a temporary number is 2, 3, 7, 8 and a scale mark whose least significant number of a temporary number is 1, 4, 6, 9.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

  The present invention relates to a scale such as a measuring instrument such as a scale or a graduated cylinder and a measuring instrument, a metal working instrument, an optical instrument, a medical instrument, a telecommunication instrument, a vehicle, a ship, an aircraft, and the like.

As a conventional scale for performing measurement and setting, a scale as shown in FIG. 36 is known.
The conventional scale body 600 has a scale line indicating a scale position in a range of 0 to 10 cm, and starts from a scale line where a scale value such as a measured amount or a set amount of the scale line is 0. Minimum graduation line 60 formed by four lines so that the distance between the graduation line and the graduation line for each graduation value interval that minimizes the graduation value interval, which is the difference between the graduation values from the graduation line to another graduation line, is divided into five equal parts. And, the line length which is the length of the scale line is longer than the minimum scale line 60 and is formed so as to bisect 1 cm, and the line length is longer than the small scale line 62 and indicates the width of the scale line. Middle scale lines 64, which are formed in quadrants so as to divide the scale lines between the scale lines and the scale lines into 5 equal parts starting from the scale line where the line width is large and the scale value is 0. The line length is longer than the line 64, the line width is the same, and the scale value is 0. There and a large scale marks 66 are formed for each 5 cm.
In addition, the scale which consists of the above scale lines and made the line length of the minimum scale line different temporarily is known. (See Patent Document 1)
Further, there are scales such as a pressure gauge and a voltmeter which are constituted by the scale lines as described above and in which the scale lines are formed in a dial shape.
Further, there is a scale provided on a liquid meter or syringe for measuring the volume of the liquid constituted by the scale lines as described above.
Further, there is a scale provided in the setting unit, such as a feed scale of a lathe composed of scale lines as described above.
Moreover, the scale which is comprised from the above scale lines and provided the scale number in all the minimum scale lines is known. (See Patent Document 2)
In addition, there are scales such as rotary and slide type setting knobs provided in telecommunication equipment, which indicate the position of the scale with scale indications such as scale numbers, marks, and scale lines.

The conventional scale such as the scale body 600 has the following drawbacks.
In the middle scale line 64, the scale display of the four scale lines formed by four only changes the number of the scale numbers 50b, and the display method of each of the middle scale lines 64 is the same. 64 is difficult to discriminate intuitively, and it is difficult to perform measurement and setting.
In addition, there is a similar difficulty in the scale in which the scale line is formed in a dial shape.

Further, in the minimum scale line 60, the display method of the scale lines formed by four is the same, and in Patent Document 1, the line length of the minimum scale line is gradually different, but only the line length is gradually different. In both cases, the interval between the minimum scale lines is narrow, so in order to determine the scale value of the minimum scale lines, each minimum scale line is identified by counting the minimum scale lines formed by four. There was a need to do.
In addition, there is a similar difficulty in the scale in which the scale line is formed in a dial shape.

When the minimum graduation line formed by four lines can be discriminated in this way, the next graduation amount is a graduation value amount of one graduation, and this minimum graduation line has a direction in which the graduation value of the four is zero. The scale value was read by multiplying by the number of the smallest scale line counted from
And in order to grasp | ascertain this scale, if it is the scale of this conventional scale main body 600, since the 5-mm scale value space | interval is divided into 5 by the scale line, 5 mm is divided by 5 and the scale of 1 scale. The amount was grasped as 1 mm.
In this way, when the number of scales is 1, the smallest scale line for reading the scale value is the smallest scale line when the scale value is counted from the direction of 0 among the four minimum scale lines. If the graduation can be grasped, since the scale is 1, it is not necessary to calculate the scale value by multiplying the number of the smallest scale line and the scale, but the scale value of scales such as 2 other than 1 is read. In this case, it was necessary to calculate by multiplying the number of the smallest graduation line by this scale.

Moreover, the conventional scale may or may not have a description of the scale.
Therefore, when reading the scale value, first check the presence / absence of the scale value. If there is, check the scale value and then read the scale value. The scale value was read after calculating the scale.
As described above, in the conventional scale, there is a problem that it takes time and effort to determine the minimum scale line, grasp the scale, and interpret the scale value.

  In Patent Document 2, scale numbers are provided for all of the minimum scale lines 60. However, since the display of scale numbers is excessive, it is difficult to see the scales and only the number of scale numbers of the minimum scale lines changes. Since the display method of the minimum scale line 60 is the same, there is a difficulty that it is difficult to intuitively determine each minimum scale line and read the scale value.

In addition, when the scale of the conventional scale display method composed of a plurality of scale lines is used for a liquid meter for measuring the volume of the liquid, there are the above-mentioned difficulties, and in addition to this, when measuring, etc. In addition, the liquid surface of the measurement object and the scale line overlap each other, and there is a problem in that the visibility of the liquid surface is low.
However, in order to prevent the graduation line and the liquid surface from overlapping, it is necessary to check the liquid surface position at the end of the graduation line and perform measurement. In that case, measurement at the end of the graduation line is required. There was also a difficulty that the scale value was difficult to read.

  In addition, when the scale of such a conventional scale display method is used for a scale provided in a setting unit such as a feed scale of a lathe, there are the above-mentioned difficulties, and in addition, a guideline for setting such a scale. Is often provided on one side edge of the scale body, and there is a problem that the visibility of the pointer and the legibility of the scale value are low.

In addition, the scales that display the scale position with scale numbers, marks, scale lines, etc., such as rotary and slide setting knobs provided on telecommunication equipment, are all the same display method of scale display or display method Even if there is a change, the display method is usually the change every 5 scales, and the display method is the same for each of the 4 scale displays provided between the 5 scales. Therefore, each scale display is discriminated intuitively. It was difficult and the scale setting was difficult.
The present invention is intended to solve the above drawbacks.

  The scale of the present invention includes a scale body having a required size and a plurality of scale lines formed on the scale body, each of the scales having an arbitrarily defined scale value interval starting from a scale line having a scale value of 0. Numbers are assigned to the lines in ascending order from 0 to 1, and the lowest number of the temporary numbers is 2, 3, 7, 8, and the lowest number of the temporary numbers is 1, 4, 6, 9 is different in the display method of the graticule line.

  The scale of the present invention is a scale body having a required size and a plurality of scale lines formed on the scale body, each starting from a scale line with a scale value of 0, and each scale value interval determined arbitrarily. The scale lines are numbered in ascending order from 0 to 1, and the lowest number of the temporary numbers is 2, 3, 7, 8, and the lowest number of the temporary numbers is 1, 4, The display method of the line width of the graticule lines 6 and 9 is different.

A temporary number is assigned to each graduation line in ascending order from 0, and a mark of an arbitrary shape is provided on the graduation line in which the lowest number of the temporary number is 2, 3, 7, or 8. The display method of a mark differs by not providing the mark of arbitrary shapes in the scale line whose subordinate numbers are 1, 4, 6, and 9.

  The scale of the present invention is a scale body having a required size and a plurality of scale lines formed on the scale body, each starting from a scale line with a scale value of 0, and each scale value interval determined arbitrarily. The scale lines are numbered in ascending order from 0 to 1, and the lowest number of the temporary number is 3, 8, and the lowest number of the temporary number is 1, 2, 4, 6, The display method of the scale lines 7 and 9 is different.

  The scale of the present invention is a scale body having a required size and a plurality of scale lines formed on the scale body, each starting from a scale line with a scale value of 0, and each scale value interval determined arbitrarily. The scale lines are numbered in ascending order from 0 to 1, and the lowest number of the temporary number is 2, 7, and the lowest number of the temporary number is 1, 3, 4, 6, The display method of the graticule lines 8 and 9 is different.

  Further, the scale of the present invention is an arbitrary two scales out of the four minimum scale lines formed on the scale main body having a required size and a plurality of scale lines formed thereon. The line width of the line is different from the line widths of the remaining two scale lines.

  In addition, the scale of the present invention is a scale interval that is arbitrarily determined from a scale display having a scale value of 0 in a scale display showing a scale body having a required size and a plurality of scale positions provided on the scale body.

  Embodiments will be described below with reference to the drawings. In addition, although each following embodiment was described concretely based on drawing, this invention is not limited to this specific structure.

(First embodiment)
A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. This embodiment is a scale scale for measuring the length of an object made as follows.
A. A scale line is formed on one side edge of the scale body 10 as follows.
First, in the range of a scale value of 0 cm to a scale value of 10 cm, a scale line of 1 mm having the same scale line length is formed at intervals of 1 mm of the scale value so that the scale value is in ascending order from the left side to the right side. .
Among these, the line length of the scale line every 5 mm with the scale value of 5, 15, 25, 35, 45, 55, 65, 75, 85, 95 mm is 1.5 times the line length of the scale line every 1 mm. And
Next, the line length and line width of each 1 cm graduation line with scale values of 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9 cm are 1.5 times the line length of the graduation line every 5 mm. The line width is 2.5 times, and a scale number 50b indicating the scale value of each scale line is provided near the inner end of the scale line every 1 cm.
Next, the line length and line width of the scale line every 5 cm at which the scale value is 0 cm, 5 cm and 10 cm are 1.2 times the line length of the scale line every 1 cm, the line width is the same, and every 5 cm. A scale numeral 50b indicating the scale value of each scale line is provided near the inner end of the scale line.

B) A scale line having a scale value of 0 cm is defined as a starting point 20.
C. The arbitrarily determined scale value interval is 1 mm.
2. From the starting point 20, temporary numbers are assigned in ascending order from 0 to 1 in each graduation line every 1 mm, which is a graduation interval determined arbitrarily.
E, the line length and line width of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a where the lowest number of the temporary number is 2, 3, 7, 8; the lowest number of the temporary number is 1, 4, 6, The scale line 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a to be 9 is 1.2 times the line length, and the line width is the same as the scale line for every 1 cm.
A round mark 40 in which the inner side of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a is colored black inside the diameter twice the width of the main scale line, and the scale value of each scale line is expressed in centimeters. Scale numbers 50a of “2”, “3”, “7”, and “8” that are the first number are provided.

Next, a temporary number is assigned again with an arbitrarily determined scale value interval of 10 mm.
From the starting point 20, temporary numbers are assigned in ascending order from 0 to 1 in order to each graduation line for every 10 mm of the graduation value interval determined arbitrarily.
H, the scale numbers 50b of the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, and 38b in which the lowest number of the temporary number is 2, 3, 7, 8 are surrounded by a circular line.

The temporary numbers in the present invention are for convenience and need not be provided on the scale of the present invention. (The same applies to the following embodiments.)
In addition, the scale value interval arbitrarily determined when assigning temporary numbers is the scale value interval so that the provisional numbers are assigned to the scale lines that require intuitive discrimination of the scale lines and easy interpretation of the scale values. Set up. (The same applies to the following embodiments.)

  In this way, the scale numbers 50b of the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, and 38b that are scale lines for each cm are surrounded by a circular line, and the scale lines 31b, 34b, 36b, and 39b that are also scale lines for each cm. Since the numeral 50b is not surrounded by a circular line, the display method of the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, 38b and the scale lines 31b, 34b, 36b, 39b is different.

Thus, by enclosing “2”, “3”, “7”, “8”, which are the scale numbers 50b of the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, 38b, with the circular lines, the scale lines 32b, 33b 37b and 38b can be intuitively discriminated.
In addition, since each of the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, and 38b can be intuitively discriminated, the scale numbers 50b that are adjacent to each other are “1”, “4”, “6”, and “9”. The scale lines of the lines 31b, 34b, 36b and 39b can also be discriminated intuitively.
From the above, if such a scale is provided on the scale, each scale line of the scale lines 31b, 32b, 33b, 34b, 36b, 37b, 38b, and 39b can be discriminated intuitively, so that measurement and the like are easy to perform. .

Further, by enclosing the scale numbers 50b such as “2” and “3” adjacent to each other in cm in a circular line, it is easy to grasp the position of the scale numbers 50b such as “2” and “3”. .
Further, the scale numbers 50b of “2” and “3” of the scale lines 32b and 33b are the scale numbers 50b of the scale lines 31b, 32b, 33b and 34b, “1”, “2”, “3” and “4”. "7", "8" of the scale lines 37b, 38b are also the scale numbers 50b of the scale lines 36b, 37b, 38b, 39b, "6", "7", "8", Since it is located at the center of “9”, it is easy to grasp the position of the scale number 50b of “2”, “3”, “7”, “8”.
In addition, the scale numbers 50b of “2”, “3”, “7”, and “8” surrounded by the circular line are used as a guide, and it is easy to grasp the overall scale position of the scale line in cm.

In this embodiment, the scale numbers 50b of the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, and 38b are surrounded by a circular line. However, the scale numbers 50b are surrounded by a line of an arbitrary shape such as a rectangle, or an underline is drawn. You may do it. Also, the font size and type of the scale numbers 50b of the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, and 38b, the character color, the background color, and the like may be displayed differently from the scale lines 31b, 34b, 36b, and 39b.
As described above, the display method of the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, and 38b and the scale lines 31b, 34b, 36b, and 39b may be any method as long as the display method is different.

  Further, the line lengths and line widths of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a that are the minimum scale lines are made longer than those of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a that are also the minimum scale lines, and the line widths are made thicker. By providing circular marks 40 and scale numbers 50a at the tips of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a, a display method for the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a is provided. Be different.

  If a scale having such a difference between the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a is provided on the scale, the minimum scale line that is formed four by four has a scale value of 0. The widths of the second and third graticule lines, counted from the direction of, are made wider than the line widths of the first and fourth graduation lines, and the second and third graticule lines The scale value is converted to cm and it is understood that the number of the first decimal place is 2, 3, 7, and 8, and the measurement is performed using the scale number 50a as a guideline. Even if the minimum scale lines formed by four are not counted one by one, each minimum scale line can be intuitively discriminated and the scale value of each minimum scale line can be easily read.

  Further, the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a can be changed by making the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a thicker than the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a. In addition to being able to discriminate intuitively, it is easy to read the scale value of each scale line, so that may be used.

Further, the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a are simply provided with the mark 40 and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a are not provided with the mark 40. 36a and 39a can be intuitively discriminated, and the scale values of the respective scale lines can be easily read.

Further, the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a and 38a are provided with the scale numbers 50a, and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a and 39a are not provided with the scale numbers 50a, and the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a and 38a and the scale lines 31a. , 34a, 36a, 39a can be determined intuitively, and the scale value of each scale line can be easily read.

Further, in a scale made of a transparent material as a whole, scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a which are minimum scale lines are formed on the surface of the scale, and scale lines such as scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a other than the scale lines are formed. It is good also as a scale formed in the surface on the opposite side of a scale.

By doing so, the scale line 32a has a difference in height between the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the other scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a and the like due to the thickness of the scale. , 33a, 37a, 38a and scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a can be discriminated intuitively, and the scale values of the respective scale lines can be easily read. (Not shown)

In this way, starting from the graduation line where the graduation value is 0, a temporary number is assigned in ascending order from 0 to 1 for each graduation line at any given graduation value interval, and the lowest number of the temporary number The method of making the display method of the scale line where the scale number is 2, 3, 7, 8 and the scale line where the lowest number of the temporary number is 1, 4, 6, 9 is different from the line width of the scale line, There are methods depending on the display method such as the scale number of the scale line, the mark of the scale line, the shape of the scale line, etc. Any method may be used as long as there is a difference in the display method.
(The same applies to the following embodiments.)

  Moreover, since the line width of the minimum graduation line of the graduation line 32a and the graduation line 33a, the graduation line 37a, and the graduation line 38a which is not a distant graduation line is thicker than the graduation lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a, etc. It is easy to grasp the positions of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a.

  Further, the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a are located in the center without being biased to the left and right of the scale lines 31a, 32a, 33a, 34a and the scale lines 36a, 37a, 38a, 39a, respectively. , 33a, 37a, 38a can be easily grasped.

In the embodiment of FIG. 1, the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a are provided with the scale numbers 50a that are "2", "3", "7", and "8". Compared with the case where the number 50a is not provided, the scale values of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a can be easily read.
Further, since the scale numbers 50a are provided on the scale lines adjacent to the scale line 32a and the scale line 33a, and the scale line 37a and the scale line 38a, the scales "2" and "3", "7" and "8" are provided. From the difference between the numbers 50a, it can be easily understood that the scale is 1 mm.

  Thus, the graduation line 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a without the graduation number 50a adjacent to the graduation lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a can be easily grasped that the graduation is 1 mm. The scale values of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a are the same as the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a by adding or subtracting 1 mm of the scale quantity to the scale numbers 50a of 33a, 37a, and 38a. Compared with the case where the scale number 50a is not provided, it is easier to read the scale value.

  In addition, the line width of each scale line of the present invention is preferably within a quarter of the interval from the center of the scale line to the center of the adjacent scale line in order to make the scale line easy to see. (The same applies to the following embodiments except for the dial-shaped scale.)

  In Patent Document 2, scale numbers are provided for all the minimum scale lines. For this reason, the display of the scale numbers of the minimum scale lines is increased, making it difficult to see the scales, and the display method is changed only by changing the scale numbers of the minimum scale lines. However, it is difficult to intuitively determine the minimum scale line. However, the line widths of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a among the minimum scale lines are set to the scale lines 31a and 34a as in this embodiment. , 36a, 39a, and a thicker scale number 50a, etc., so that the minimum scale line 50a is less displayed and the minimum scale line scale is easy to see, and the scale value of each minimum scale line is easy to read. I can do it.

In this embodiment, a circular mark 40 colored black inside is provided at the inner ends of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a. Any shape such as a circle may be used. The inside of the mark may not be colored. The mark may be a number or a letter. In this embodiment, the scale starts from the left, but may start from the right. (The same applies to the following embodiments.)
The present invention is configured as described above.

(Second Embodiment)
A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. This embodiment is a scale scale for measuring the length of an object made as follows.
(B) A scale line is formed on the scale body 10 by (i) to (e) in the first embodiment.

When it is not necessary to surround the scale numbers 50b of the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, and 38b of FIG. 1 in the scale of the first embodiment of the present invention with a circular line, the scale line 32b as shown in FIG. , 33b, 37b, 38b, if the scale is provided with such a scale that omits the display of enclosing the scale numbers 50b with a circular line, the minimum scale line is not necessarily counted every four lines. The scale line can be discriminated intuitively, and the scale value of each minimum scale line can be easily read.
The present invention is configured as described above.

(Third embodiment)
A third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
In the third embodiment, in the scale of the second embodiment of FIG. 2, the scale line 35a with the lowest number of the provisional number numbered as 5 is replaced with the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a. And a scale number 50a of “5”, which is the first decimal place in terms of cm, is provided near the inner tip of the scale line 35a.

  In this way, if the scale line 35a has the same line width as the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a, and the scale line 35a is provided with such a scale provided with "5" that is the scale number 50a, on the scale. Since the scale lines 34a, 35a, 36a are easier to grasp than the second embodiment of FIG. 2, it is easier to distinguish the scale lines 34a, 35a, 36a and to read the scale values. Also good.

Moreover, it is good also considering the scale which provided the notch 45 which erases the intermediate part of a scale line like FIG. 4 in each scale line of the scale main body 10 as shown in FIG. 3 as a scale scale of a transparent raw material.
With such a scale, the measuring object 41 is confirmed through a transparent material so that the measuring object 41 having a length as shown in FIG. 4 is sandwiched between the notches 45 and aligned with the vertices of the inner scale lines. If measurement is performed, intuitive determination of the graduation lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and graduation lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a and interpretation of the graduation values of the respective graduation lines can be easily performed, and the measurement object 41 Since the measurement location and the outline of the scale do not overlap each other and the measurement is easy to perform, it is possible to do so. In this case, it can be easily read that the length is 3 cm 9 mm.

Further, each scale line of the scale body 10 as shown in FIG. 3 is provided with a notch 45 for erasing the intermediate portion as shown in FIG. 5, and the opening 22 is provided so as to be sandwiched between the notches 45.
Next, such a scale of the scale body 10 is provided on the scale, and an opening is provided on the scale in accordance with the position of the opening 22 of the scale body 10.
With such a scale, the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a are displayed on different sides of the scale lines on both sides as a guideline, and the measurement object is required using the openings. If the operation of marking the position of the length is performed, the accurate positioning of the measurement object can be easily performed. In this case, since the mark is put at the position between the two graduation lines on both sides, it becomes easier to mark.

Further, as shown in FIG. 6, if a scale that does not provide the minimum scale line 50a of the scale of FIG. 3 is provided on the scale, each minimum scale line can be discriminated intuitively, Since the scale value of the minimum scale line is easy to read and the display can be made simple, it is possible to make a scale in which the scale number 50a is not provided on such a minimum scale line.
The present invention is configured as described above.

(Fourth embodiment)
A fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. This embodiment is a scale of a scale that needs to have the same line width of scale lines made in the following manner in relation to scale accuracy and the like.
In the fourth embodiment, in the scale of FIG. 3 of the third embodiment, the scale lines 32a, 33a, 35a, 37a, 38a and the scale values are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, The line width of the outer edge of the 7, 8, 9, 10 cm graduation line is 0.3 times the line length of the graduation line 32a and the same line width as the graduation lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a .

  In this way, the display method of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a is different.

  If such a scale is provided on the scale, the line width inside the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a is thicker than the line width of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a as in the third embodiment. Even so, the outer edge tip portion of the graduation line to be measured has the same line width as the graduation lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a, so that the graduation accuracy is not lowered and is the same as in the third embodiment. In addition, each minimum scale line can be determined intuitively and the scale value of each minimum scale line can be easily read without counting the minimum scale lines formed four by one.

  Further, in this embodiment, the line widths of scale lines every 5 mm such as 5 mm and 15 mm, scale lines every 1 cm such as 1 cm and 2 cm, and scale lines every 5 cm such as 0 cm and 5 cm are also scale lines 31a and 34a. , 36a and 39a have the same line width, the line widths of the outer edge tips of all the scale lines are the same, it is easy to see, and the scale accuracy of all the scale lines can be made uniform. .

Also in the following embodiments, when it is necessary to make the line width of the outer edge tip portion of the scale line the same in relation to the scale accuracy and the like, if the line width of a part of the scale line is different from this, Each minimum scale line can be intuitively discriminated without degrading the scale accuracy, and the scale value of each minimum scale line can be easily read.
The present invention is configured as described above.

(Fifth embodiment)
A fifth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. This embodiment is a scale of a liquid meter such as a graduated cylinder or a measuring cup or a syringe barrel that measures the volume of a liquid made of a transparent material as a whole.
A. A scale line is formed on the scale body 10 as follows.
First, in the range from the scale value 0 ml to the scale value 50 ml, a scale line having the same scale line length is formed in the horizontal direction every scale value interval 2 ml. The scale value is descending from the upper side to the lower side.
Among these, the line length of the scale line for every 10 ml whose scale value is 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 ml is made to be 1.4 times the length of the scale line that is long in the right direction and that is every 2 ml.
Next, in the vicinity of the right end of the scale line for every 10 ml, a scale number 50b indicating the scale values in descending order from 50 ml to 0 ml in the direction from the upper side to the lower side of the scale body 10 is provided.

B) A scale line with a scale value of 0 ml is defined as a starting point 20.
C. The scale value interval determined arbitrarily is 2 ml.
2. From the starting point 20, temporary numbers are assigned in ascending order from 0 to 1 in order to each scale line every 2 ml, which is a scale value interval arbitrarily determined.
E. Scale numbers 50a indicating the scale values of the respective scale lines are provided in the vicinity of the right end of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a and 38a where the lowest numbers of the temporary numbers are 2, 3, 7, and 8.

  In this way, the scale lines 50a, 33a, 37a, and 38a that are the minimum scale lines are provided with the scale numbers 50a, and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a that are also the minimum scale lines are not provided with the scale numbers 50a. Therefore, the display methods of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a are different.

  If the graduation line 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the graduation line 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a are provided with a graduation on a liquid meter or syringe, the minimum graduation line formed by 4 Measured with reference to “4”, “6”, “14”, “16”, etc. of the scale numbers 50a provided on the second and third scale lines, counting from the direction of zero. By performing the above and the like, it is possible to intuitively discriminate each minimum graduation line without easily counting the minimum graduation lines formed four by four, and to easily read the scale value of each minimum graduation line.

Further, since the scale numbers 50a are provided on the adjacent scale lines 32a and scale lines 33a, scale lines 37a and scale lines 38a, the scale numbers 50a such as "4" and "6", "14" and "16" It can be easily understood from the difference that the scale is 2 ml.
Since this scale can be grasped, the scale values of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a not provided with the scale numbers 50a can be easily read.

  For example, the 8 ml scale line which is the scale line 34a is not provided with the scale number 50a, but the scale value of 8 ml is obtained by adding 2 ml of the scale to 6 ml which is the scale line 33a provided with the scale number 50a. Can be easily read.

  Further, by providing the scale numbers 50a on the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a, it is easy to read the scale values of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a without having to grasp the scale amount as described above. You can also

For example, the 8 ml scale line which is the scale line 34a is not provided with the scale number 50a, but it is an intermediate scale line between 6 ml which is the scale line 33a provided with the scale number 50a and 10 ml which is provided with the scale numbers. Therefore, it can be easily read that the scale value is 8 ml.
By doing in this way, it is easy to read the scale values of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a where the scale numbers 50a are not provided.

  In the scales other than 1 as in this embodiment, the number of the smallest scale lines counted from the direction in which the scale value is 0 among the minimum scale lines formed by four. It is necessary to calculate and read the scale value by multiplying the scale. However, if the scale numbers 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a, which are the minimum scale lines, are provided with scale numbers in this way, the scale is not required. It is especially convenient because it can read the value.

  In this embodiment, the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a have the same length, but the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a have line lengths. Is 1.2 times as long as the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a, so that the minimum scale line and the scale value can be more easily determined. (Not shown)

In addition, in the scale of FIG. 8, the scale numbers (50a, 50b) are descending from the upper side to the lower side. The scale of FIG. 8 is provided so that the needle is positioned downward, and the injection needle is also positioned above the scale with the scale numbers (50a, 50b) of FIG. 8 ascending from the upper side to the lower side. If it is provided together with the syringe body, when filling with chemicals, etc., if you look at one of the scales, when filling with the syringe needle up, when filling with the syringe needle down Since the scale numbers are not reversed and filling is easy, two types of scales may be provided on the syringe barrel.
Only one of these scales may be provided on the syringe barrel.

Further, as shown in FIG. 9, a notch 45 for erasing the intermediate portion of the scale line may be provided at the same position of each scale line of FIG. 8 with a width of 0.3 times the length of the scale line 31a.
In this way, the notch 45 is provided in the scale line, and the measurement is performed by the liquid level appearing in the notch 45, so that the liquid level does not overlap the scale line and the two scale lines on both sides of the notch 45 are used. Since the scale value is read with the liquid level in between, the level of the liquid level is higher and the scale value is easier to read than when measuring with a normal single scale line. It is also good.

  In the case where the scale of FIG. 9 is provided on the syringe barrel, it is easy to visually recognize the liquid level from the notch 45 and the liquid level of the movable pusher of the syringe barrel. A syringe can be filled with a necessary amount of chemical solution. In this case, if the scale with the scale numbers (50a, 50b) in FIG. 9 arranged in ascending order from top to bottom is provided on the syringe barrel body so that the syringe needle is located above, Since the scale numbers (50a, 50b) are not reversed even if a chemical solution or the like is filled in the direction, it may be so.

  The scales in FIGS. 8 and 9 are equally spaced, but if the scale line interval is changed according to the shape of the container, the meter becomes smaller as the inner diameter of the container decreases. It can also be used as a graduation of a glass, and since it has the same effect as described above, such a graduation may be used. (Not shown)

In some cases, a scale line with a scale value of 0, such as a liquid meter or a syringe, may not be formed. In this case, the provisional numbers are numbered including the assumed scale line with a scale value of 0.
(The same applies to the following embodiments)

In this way, temporary numbers including the assumed scale lines are numbered, and the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a having the lowest number of the temporary numbers 2, 3, 7, and 8 and the temporary numbers are the highest. If the display method of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a with the lower numbers being 1, 4, 6, 9 is different, even if a scale line with a scale value of 0 is not formed, the respective minimum scales Lines can be discriminated intuitively, and the scale value of each minimum scale line can be easily read. (Not shown)
The present invention is configured as described above.

Be different.

  If a scale having such a difference between the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a is provided on the scale, the minimum scale line that is formed four by four has a scale value of 0. The triangle mark 40 is provided at the inner ends of the second and third scale lines, counting from the direction of, and the second and third scale marks are not provided on the first and fourth scale lines. The scale value of the line is converted into centimeters, and the number of the first decimal place is 2, 3, 7, and 8 and measurement is performed. Even if it is not counted, each minimum scale line can be discriminated intuitively, and the scale value of each minimum scale line can be easily read.

With such a scale, intuitive determination of the minimum scale line and interpretation of the scale value can be facilitated, and only the triangular marks 40 are provided on the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a. Since the line width is the same, there is no influence on the scale accuracy, and since the line length is the same, the display can be a simple scale.

B) A scale line having a scale value of 0 cm is defined as a starting point 20.
C. The arbitrarily determined scale value interval is 1 mm.

A thirteenth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. This embodiment is a scale of a setting unit such as a lathe feed scale made as follows.
A. A scale line is formed on one side edge of the scale body 10 as follows.
On the scale body 10, scale lines having the same scale line length are formed every scale value interval 0.02 cm in the range of scale value 0 cm to scale value 1.0 cm. The scale value is assumed to be ascending from left to right.

B) A scale line having a scale value of 0 cm is defined as a starting point 20.
C. The arbitrarily determined scale value interval is 0.02 cm.
2. From the starting point 20, temporary numbers are assigned in ascending order from 0 to 1 in order to each scale line every 0.02 cm, which is a scale value interval determined arbitrarily.
E, the line length and line width of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a with the lowest number of the temporary number being 2, 3, 7, 8, and the lowest number of the temporary number being 1, 4, 6 , 9, which is 1.2 times the line length of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a, the line width is the same as the scale line every 0.1 cm, and the inside of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a “4”, which is the number of the second decimal place in terms of cm in terms of the scale value of each graduation line and the circular mark 40 whose inner diameter is twice the diameter of the main graduation line at the tip and colored black. , “6” scale numbers 50a are provided.

  In this way, the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a that are the minimum scale lines are made longer than the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a that are also the minimum scale lines, the line width is made thicker, and the scale lines 32a. 33a, 37a, and 38a are provided with marks 40 and scale numbers 50a, so that the display methods of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a are different.

  If a scale having such a difference between the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a is provided in a setting unit such as a feed scale of a lathe, a minimum scale line formed by four.

(Fourteenth embodiment)
A fourteenth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
This embodiment is a scale of a pressure gauge made as follows.
B. A scale line is formed on the circular scale body 10 in a dial shape as follows.
First, in a radial direction from the center of the scale body 10 to the outside from a point 0.6 times the radius of the scale body 10, the scale value interval is 0.01 MPa every 0.01 MPa. A scale line having a line length of 0.12 times the radius of the scale body 10 is formed.
Note that the scale values are in ascending order clockwise.
Next, the line length and line width of each scale line for each 0.05 MPa such as 0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, etc. A scale number 50b indicating the scale value of each scale line is provided in the vicinity of the outer end of the scale line every 0.05 MPa.

(B) A scale line with a scale value of 0 MPa is defined as the starting point 20.

The line lengths of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a to be 4, 6, 9 are 1.5 times the line length, and the line width is the same as the scale line every 0.05 MPa, and the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a A circular mark 40 whose inner diameter is twice as large as the line width of the main graduation line is blackened at the outer front end.

Next, a temporary number is assigned again with an arbitrarily determined scale value interval of 0.05 MPa.
From the starting point 20, temporary numbers are assigned in ascending order from 0 to 1 in order to each scale line at every arbitrarily determined scale value interval of 0.05 MPa.
H, the scale numbers 50b of the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, and 38b in which the lowest number of the temporary number is 2, 3, 7, 8 are surrounded by a square line.

  Thus, the scale numbers 50b of the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, 38b every 0.05 MPa are surrounded by a square line, and the scale numbers 50b of the scale lines 31b, 34b, 36b, 39b are square lines. By not enclosing it, the display methods of the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, and 38b and the scale lines 31b, 34b, 36b, and 39b are different.

In this way, “0.10,” “0.15,” “0.35,” and “0.40”, which are the scale numbers 50b of the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, and 38b, are surrounded by a square line. Thus, each of the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, and 38b can be intuitively discriminated.
Further, since the scale lines 32b, 33b, 37b, and 38b can be intuitively determined, the scale lines of the adjacent scale lines 31b, 34b, 36b, and 39b can also be determined intuitively.
From the above, if such a scale is provided on the pressure gauge, each scale line of the scale lines 31b, 32b, 33b, 34b, 36b, 37b, 38b, 39b can be discriminated intuitively, so that measurement and the like are performed. Cheap.

  Further, by enclosing the scale numbers 50b such as “0.10” and “0.15” adjacent in units of 0.05 MPa with square lines, the scale numbers such as “0.10” and “0.15” It is easy to grasp the position of 50b.

  The scale numbers 50b of the scale lines 32b and 33b of “0.10” and “0.15” are the scale numbers 50b of the scale lines 31b, 32b, 33b and 34b, “0.05”, “0. 10 ”,“ 0.15 ”,“ 0.20 ”and the scale numbers 37b, 38b“ 0.35 ”,“ 0.40 ”scale numbers 50b are also scaled lines 36b, 37b, Since it is located in the center of the scale numbers 50b of “0.30”, “0.35”, “0.40”, “0.45” of 38b and 39b, “0.10”, “0. It is easy to grasp the position of the scale number 50b such as “15”.

  Further, the scale number 50b of “0.10”, “0.15”, “0.35”, “0.40” surrounded by this square line is used as a guide, and the scale line of 0.05 MPa unit as a whole. It is easy to grasp the scale position.

  Also, in the minimum scale line, the line lengths and line widths of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a that are the minimum scale lines are longer than those of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a that are also the minimum scale lines. The display method of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a is different by increasing the line width and providing a mark 40 at the outer end of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a. Shall.

  If a scale with such a difference between the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a is provided in the pressure gauge, the minimum scale line that is formed four by four has a scale value. The widths of the second and third graticule lines, counting from the 0 direction, are larger than the line widths of the first and fourth graduation lines, and the second and third graduation lines. The graduation value is converted to the unit of MPa and the number of the second decimal place is 2, 3, 7, and 8 and the measurement is performed. Even without this, each minimum scale line can be discriminated intuitively, and the scale value of each minimum scale line can be easily read.

Further, in this embodiment, by providing the scale number 50b outside the scale line, the pressure gauge pointer is formed from the center of the scale body 10 to the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a. If the structure moves within the range, the scale value is easy to read because the pointer and the scale number 50b do not overlap.
Further, if scale numbers are provided on the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a, the scale values can be easily read, so that may be used. (Not shown)

Further, the line width of each scale line formed in a dial shape according to the present invention is a quarter of the distance from the innermost center of the scale line to the innermost center of the adjacent scale line in order to make the scale line easier to see. It is desirable that the line width is within one of the above. (The same applies to the dial scale in the following embodiments.)
The present invention is configured as described above.

(Fifteenth embodiment)

A scale number 50b indicating the scale value of each scale line is provided near the inner tip of the line.

B) A scale line having a scale value of 0 cm is defined as a starting point 20.
C. The arbitrarily determined scale value interval is 1 mm.
2. From the starting point 20, temporary numbers are assigned in ascending order from 0 to 1 in each graduation line every 1 mm, which is a graduation interval determined arbitrarily.
E. The scale line 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a, whose lowest number of the temporary number is 2, 3, 7, 8 is the same as the line width of the scale line for each 1 cm, and the scale line 32a , 33a, 37a, 38a, round marks 40 colored in black with the inside diameter twice as large as the main scale line, and the scale value of each scale line, which is the first decimal place in terms of cm Scale numbers 50a of numbers “2”, “3”, “7”, “8” are provided.

  As described above, in the scale scale in which the auxiliary scale line 42 having a length of 0.5 mm shorter than the minimum scale line is formed at the center of the minimum scale line every 1 mm, first, the scale line 32a which is the minimum scale line. , 33a, 37a, 38a are made wider than the graduation lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a, which are also the smallest graduation lines, and a circular mark 40 and graduations are formed at the inner ends of the graduation lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a. By providing the numeral 50a, the display method of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a is different.

  If a scale having such a difference between the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a is provided on the scale, the minimum scale line that is formed four by four has a scale value of 0. The line widths of the second and third minimum graduation lines are larger than the line widths of the first and fourth smallest graduation lines. The scale value of the minimum scale line is converted to centimeters, and it is understood that the number of the first decimal place is 2, 3, 7, and 8, and the measurement is performed using the scale number 50a provided there as a guide. By doing so, it is possible to intuitively discriminate each minimum graduation line without counting the minimum graduation lines formed four by one, and it is easy to read the scale value of each minimum graduation line.

In addition, since the scale value of the minimum scale line can be easily read in this way, the auxiliary scale line 42 formed adjacent to the minimum scale line can be intuitively discriminated and adjacent to each other. The scale value of the auxiliary scale line 42 can be easily read by adding or subtracting the number of 0.5 mm to the scale value of the matching minimum scale line.
The present invention is configured as described above.

A sixteenth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
This embodiment is a scale of a hygrometer in which the humidity made in the following ranges from 10% to 60%.
B. A scale line is formed on the circular scale body 10 in a dial shape as follows.
First, in the range of the scale value from 0% to the scale value of 60%, the scale body from the center of the scale body to the center of the scale body 10 from a position 0.9 times the radius of the scale body at every scale value interval of 1%. A scale line of the same length is formed with a line length of 0.15 times the radius of 10. However, since the scale line for every 1% of the scale value interval in the range of the scale value of 0% to 9% is an assumed scale line, actual display is not performed.

The scale values are set in ascending order in the clockwise direction.
Among these, the line length of every 5% of the scale values of 15, 25, 35, 45, and 55% is set to be 1.3 times as long as the scale line of every 1% that is long inward.
Next, the line length and the line width of the scale line every 10% of the scale values of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60% are the same line length and line width as the scale line every 5%. A scale number 50b indicating the scale value of each scale line is provided near the inner end of the scale line every 10%.

B) An assumed scale line with a scale value of 0% is set as the starting point 20.
C. The scale value interval determined arbitrarily is 1%.
Second, from the starting point 20, temporary numbers are assigned in ascending order from 0 to 1 in each scale line every 1%, which is a scale value interval arbitrarily determined including the assumed scale line.
E. The line widths of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a where the lowest numbers of the temporary numbers are 2, 3, 7, 8 except the range of 0% to 9%, which is the assumed scale line, are 10 A circular mark 40 whose diameter is twice as large as the line width of the main graduation line is colored black at the inner end of the graduation lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a.

  Thus, the line widths of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a that are the minimum scale lines are made larger than those of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a that are also the minimum scale lines, and the scale lines 32a and 33a. , 37a, 38a are provided with a mark 40, so that the display methods of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a are different.

  If a scale having such a difference between the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a is provided in the hygrometer, the minimum scale line formed by four lines has a scale value. The widths of the second and third graticule lines, counting from the 0 direction, are larger than the line widths of the first and fourth graduation lines, and the second and third line widths. The graduation lines that are thickened, etc. can be counted by measuring the lowest number of graduation values of 2, 3, 7, 8, and so on. However, each minimum graduation line can be discriminated intuitively, and the graduation value of each minimum graduation line can be easily read.

In this way, in a scale that does not form a scale line with a scale value of 0, a temporary number is assumed to be a scale line with an assumed scale value of 0, and an assumed scale line for every scale value interval that is arbitrarily defined is included. In addition, the scale lines are numbered in ascending order from 0 to 1, and the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, where the lowest number of the temporary numbers of the scale lines actually formed are 2, 3, 7, 8; It is assumed that the display method of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a in which the lowest number of the temporary numbers is 1, 4, 6, 9 is different from 38a.
The present invention is configured as described above.

Among these, the line length of the graduation line for each 1V at which the graduation values are minus 1, 2, 3, 4V, plus 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9V is increased in the upward direction. The line length is 1.6 times the scale line every 5V.
Next, the line length and line width of the scale line for every 5V with the scale values of minus 5V, 0V, plus 5, 10V are 1.4 times the line length of the scale line for each 1V which is long upward. The width is 2.5 times, and a scale number 50b indicating the scale value of each scale line is provided near the upper end of the scale line for each 5V.

B) A scale line with a scale value of 0 V is set as the starting point 20.
C. The arbitrarily determined scale value interval is 1V.
Second, from the starting point 20, temporary numbers are assigned in ascending order from 0 to 1 on each scale line for each 1 V, which is an arbitrarily determined scale value interval, in both the minus and plus scale directions.
E, the line length and line width of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a having the lowest number of the temporary number being 2, 3, 7, 8 are increased in the upward direction and the lowest number of the temporary number is 1. The line length of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a to be 4, 6, 9 is 1.2 times the line length, and the line width is the same as the scale line every 5V, and above the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a A scale number 50a indicating the scale value of each scale line is provided near the tip.

Thus, in such a scale having the auxiliary scale line 42 formed so as to divide the scale line for each 1V into two equal parts, first, the display method of the minimum scale line for each 1V is different as follows. Shall.
The scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a, which are the minimum scale lines, are made longer than the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a, which are also the minimum scale lines, the line width is thicker, and the scales. It is assumed that the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a are displayed differently by providing the scale numbers 50a near the upper ends of the lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a.

  If a scale having a difference between the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a is provided in the voltmeter, the minimum scale line that is formed by four lines has a scale value. The widths of the second and third graticule lines, counting from the 0 direction, are larger than the line widths of the first and fourth graduation lines, and the second and third line widths. The graduation line with a thick line, for example, is understood to have a scale value of minus 2, 3V, plus 2, 3, 7, 8V, and measurement is performed using the scale number 50a as a guide. Even if the minimum scale lines formed by four lines are not counted one by one, each minimum scale line can be intuitively discriminated and the scale value of each minimum scale line can be easily read.

In this way, the scale value of each of the minimum scale lines can be easily read, and by adding or subtracting 0.5 V to the scale value of the minimum scale line, the scale value of the adjacent auxiliary scale line 42 can be obtained. Can be easily read.

  The line widths of the third and fourth scale lines 53 and 54 of the minimum scale lines 60 formed by four lines are the same as those of the first and second scale lines 51 and 52, which are also the minimum scale lines. The same effect can be obtained by making the width larger than the width and setting the two adjacent two adjacent minimum scale lines 60 to the same line width. (Not shown)

  Further, among the minimum graduation lines 60 formed by four, the widths of the second graduation line 52 and the third graduation line 53 are made thicker than the line widths of the first graduation line 51 and the fourth graduation line 54. The scale values of the second and second scale lines 52 and 53 are converted to centimeters, and the number of decimal places is 2, 3, 7, and 8, and measurement is performed. Even if the minimum scale lines formed for each book are not counted one by one, each minimum scale line can be discriminated intuitively and the scale value of each minimum scale line can be easily read. . (Not shown)

Further, in this case, if the line lengths of the second and third prime lines 52 and 53 are 1.2 times the lengths of the first and fourth prime lines 51 and 54, the minimum graduation line is discriminated. And the scale value can be read more easily. (Not shown)
Further, on the second and second scale lines 52 and 53, the scale numbers 50a of “2”, “3”, “7”, and “8”, which are the numbers after the decimal point when the scale value is converted to cm. Further, since the scale value of each minimum scale line can be easily read, it may be so. (Not shown)

If such a scale is provided on the scale, since the line lengths of all the minimum scale lines are the same and the line widths are different, the display can be made a simple scale.
The present invention is configured as described above.

(25th embodiment)
A twenty-fifth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
This embodiment is a scale of a thermometer made as follows.
A. A scale line is formed on the scale body 10 as follows.
In the range of the scale value minus 10 ° C. to plus 30 ° C., a scale line having the same horizontal length is formed at intervals of 1 ° C. so that the scale values are in descending order from the upper side to the lower side.
Among these, the line length and the line width of the scale line every 5 ° C. at which the scale values are minus 5 ° C., plus 5, 15, 25 ° C. are long in the right direction, and are 1. A scale number 50b indicating the scale value of each scale line is provided in the vicinity of the right end of the scale line every 5 ° C. with a triple and line width of 2.5 times.

  Next, the line length and line width of the graduation line every 10 ° C. at which the graduation values are minus 10 ° C., 0 ° C., plus 10, 20, 30 ° C. A scale number 50b indicating the scale value of each scale line is provided in the vicinity of the right end of the scale line every 10 ° C.

B. A scale line with a scale value of 0 ° C. is set as the starting point 20.
C, The arbitrarily determined scale value interval shall be 1 ° C.
2. From the starting point 20, temporary numbers are assigned in ascending order from 0 to 1 on each scale line at every 1 ° C., which is a scale value interval arbitrarily determined, in both directions of the negative and positive scale values. .
E. The scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a with the lowest number of the temporary numbers being 2, 3, 7, 8 have the same line width as the scale lines every 5 ° C., and the scale lines 32a, 33a, At the right end of 37a, 38a, a circular mark 40 in which the inside of a diameter twice the width of the main scale line is colored black and a scale number 50a indicating the scale value of each scale line are provided.
F. A notch 45 is formed at the same position in the middle part of all the scale lines to erase the scale lines with a width 0.3 times the line length of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a.

  Thus, the line widths of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a, which are the minimum scale lines, are made thicker than the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a, and are marked at the right ends of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a. By providing 40 and the scale number 50a, the display methods of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a are different.

  If a scale with such a difference between the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a is provided in the thermometer, the minimum scale line formed by four lines has a scale value. The widths of the second and third graticule lines, counting from the 0 direction, are larger than the line widths of the first and fourth graduation lines, and the second and third line widths. The graduation line that is made thicker, etc., grasps that the lowest number of the scale value is 2, 3, 7, and 8, and performs measurement etc. using the scale number 50a provided as a guideline. Even if the minimum scale lines formed by four are not counted one by one, each minimum scale line can be intuitively discriminated and the scale value of each minimum scale line can be easily read.

Further, in this embodiment, the scale numbers 50a are provided by providing the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a with the scale numbers 50a such as “2”, “3”, “7”, “8”, and the like. It is easier to read the scale values of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a than in the case of not providing.
Further, since the scale numbers 50a are provided on the scale lines adjacent to the scale line 32a and the scale line 33a, and the scale line 37a and the scale line 38a, the scales "2" and "3", "7" and "8" are provided. It can be easily understood from the difference between the numbers 50a that the scale is 1 ° C.

  Thus, it can be easily grasped that the scale is 1 ° C., so that the scale lines 31 a, 34 a, 36 a, 39 a without the scale numbers 50 a adjacent to the scale lines 32 a, 33 a, 37 a, 38 a are also scale lines. The scale values of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a are also added to the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a by adding or subtracting 1 ° C. of the scale quantity to the scale numbers 50a of 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a. Similarly, it is easier to read the scale value than when the scale number 50a is not provided.

Further, by providing the scale numbers 50a on the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a and 38a, the scale values of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a and 39a can be easily read without knowing the scale amount as described above. I can do it.
For example, although the scale number 50a is not provided on the scale line of 9 ° C. which is the scale line 39a, it is intermediate between 8 ° C. which is the scale line 38a provided with the scale number 50a and 10 ° C. where the scale number is provided. Since it is a scale line, it can be easily read that the scale value is 9 ml.
By doing in this way, it is easy to read the scale values of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a where the scale numbers 50a are not provided.

In this embodiment, the notch 45 is provided with a glass rod thermometer in which a measurement liquid having no scale is enclosed.
By doing so, the glass thermometer is sandwiched between the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a with different line widths, and the scale lines are discriminated. Easy to read and easy to read scale value.

In addition, in the scale of this embodiment, the notch 45 is not provided and a glass thermometer is provided at the left end of the scale line so that the scale line can be easily distinguished and the scale value can be easily read. May be. (Not shown)
The present invention is configured as described above.

(Twenty-sixth embodiment)
A twenty-sixth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
This embodiment is a liquid meter and syringe scale made of a transparent material made as a whole as follows.
A. A scale line is formed on the scale body 10 as follows.
In the range of scale values from 0 ml to 30 ml, horizontal scale lines having the same length are formed every 1 ml of scale value intervals so that the scale values are in descending order from the upper side to the lower side.
Among these, the line length and line width of every 5 ml of scale values of 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 ml are increased to the right, and the line length of the scale line of each 1 ml is 1.3. The scale and the line width are 2.5 times, and a scale number 50b indicating the scale value of each scale line is provided near the right end of the scale line every 5 ml.

B) A scale line with a scale value of 0 ml is defined as a starting point 20.
C. The scale value interval determined arbitrarily shall be 1 ml.
2. From the starting point 20, a temporary number is assigned in ascending order from 0 to 1 in order to each scale line for every 1 ml, which is a scale value interval arbitrarily determined.
E, the line width of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a whose lowest number of the temporary number is 2, 3, 7, 8 is the same as the line width of the scale line every 5 ml, A circular mark 40 in which the inside of a diameter twice the line width of the main scale line is colored black and a scale number 50a indicating the scale value of each scale line are provided at the right end.

F. A notch 45 is formed at the same position in the middle portion of all the scale lines to erase the scale lines having a width 0.3 times the line length of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a.
G, a straight stop line 47 is formed so as to connect each graduation line tip 46 on the opposite side of the scale numbers (50a, 50b).

  Thus, the line widths of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a that are the minimum scale lines are made larger than those of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a that are also the minimum scale lines, and the scale lines 32a and 33a. , 37a, 38a are provided with a mark 40 and a scale number 50a so that the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a are displayed differently.

  If a scale with such a difference between the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a is provided on the liquid meter or the syringe barrel, the minimum scale line that is formed four by four is obtained. The line widths of the second scale line and the third scale line are larger than the line widths of the first and fourth scale lines, counting from the direction where the scale value is 0, and the second and third scale lines. The graduation value of the second graduation line is grasped that the lowest number is 2, 3, 7, 8 and is measured by using the scale number 50a provided there as a guide to form four lines each Even if the minimum graduation lines to be counted are not counted one by one, the respective minimum graduation lines can be intuitively discriminated and the scale values of the respective minimum graduation lines can be easily read.

Further, in this embodiment, the scale numbers 50a are provided by providing the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a with the scale numbers 50a such as “2”, “3”, “7”, “8”, and the like. It is easier to read the scale values of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a than in the case of not providing.
Also, since the scale numbers 50a are provided on the scale lines of the adjacent scale lines 32a and 33a, scale lines 37a and scale lines 38a, "2" and "3", "7" and "8", etc. From the difference of the scale number 50a, it can be easily grasped that the scale is 1 ml.

  Thus, it can be easily grasped that the scale is 1 ml, so that the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a without the scale numbers 50a adjacent to the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a can also be scaled 32a. The scale values of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a are the same as the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a by adding or subtracting 1 ml of the scale quantity to the scale numbers 50a of 33a, 37a, 38a. Compared with the case where the scale number 50a is not provided, it is easier to read the scale value.

Further, by providing the scale numbers 50a on the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a and 38a, the scale values of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a and 39a can be easily read without knowing the scale amount as described above. I can do it.
For example, the 9 ml scale line which is the scale line 39a is not provided with the scale number 50a, but the scale line is an intermediate scale line between 8 ml which is the scale line 38a provided with the scale number 50a and 10 ml which is provided with the scale numbers. Therefore, it can be easily read that the scale value is 9 ml.
By doing in this way, it is easy to read the scale values of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a where the scale numbers 50a are not provided.

Further, notches 45 are provided in all the scale lines in this way, and measurement is performed by the liquid level appearing in the notches 45. Therefore, the liquid level does not overlap the scale lines, and 2 on both sides of the notch 45. Since the scale value is read so that the liquid level is sandwiched between the scale lines of the book, the liquid level is highly visible and the scale value is easy to read than when the measurement is performed with a normal single scale line.
Further, since the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a have different line widths, the scale lines on both sides are easily distinguished from each other and the scale values can be easily read.

  Further, if such a scale is provided on the syringe body at a position where the injection needle is below the scale, the movable syringe barrel can be moved together with the liquid level of the medical solution without overlapping the scale line from the notch 45. Since the end of the pusher on the side of the drug solution or the like is easily visible, the syringe barrel can be filled with a necessary amount of the drug solution and the like accurately.

  In the scale of FIG. 31, the scale numbers (50a, 50b) are in descending order from the upper side to the lower side. In addition to the scale of FIG. 31, the scale numbers are as shown in FIG. If a scale with (50a, 50b) in ascending order from the upper side to the lower side is provided together with the syringe barrel body at a position where the injection needle is on the upper side, the injection needle is directed upward when filling with a liquid medicine or the like. If the scale shown in FIG. 32 is used for filling and the scale shown in FIG. 31 is used for filling downward, the scale numbers seen by the user are not reversed upside down.

Moreover, it is good also as a syringe barrel which provided only the scale of either FIG. 31 or FIG.
If such a scale is used as the scale of a syringe barrel, the filling amount of a medical solution or the like can be easily read, so that an error in the filling amount in injection work can be prevented, and it is useful for reducing the burden on the nurse and prompting treatment. .

  In addition, the stop line 47 makes it easier for the user to determine the viewpoint on the scale line during measurement and the like, and the scale value can be easily read.

  Further, the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, and 36a, and the scale lines 31a, 34a, and 36a, and the scale lines 31a, 34a, and 36a are not provided when the scale numbers 50a of the cutout 45, the stop line 47, and the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a are not required. From the difference of 39a, each minimum scale line can be discriminated intuitively, and the scale value of each minimum scale line can be easily read. (Not shown)

Moreover, if the scale of FIG. 31 of this embodiment adjusts the scale line interval according to the shape of the container, it can also be used as a scale of metric glass, and the same effect as described above may be obtained, so that it may be used. . (Not shown)
The present invention is configured as described above.

(Twenty-seventh embodiment)
A twenty-seventh embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. This embodiment is a scale provided in the setting unit such as a feed scale of a lathe made as follows.
A. A scale line is formed on one side edge of the scale body 10 as follows.
The scale body 10 has a scale line with the same length as the scale line in the ascending order from the left side to the right side at a scale value interval of 0.02 cm in the range of the scale value 0 cm to the scale value 1.0 cm. Form.

Next, the length of the scale line every 0.1 cm at which the scale value is 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9 cm The line width is 1.4 times the line length of the scale line every 0.02 cm, the line width is 2.5 times, and the scale line scales near the inner end of the scale line every 0.1 cm. A scale number 50b indicating the value is provided.
Next, the line length and line width of the scale line every 0.5 cm at which the scale values are 0, 0.5, and 1.0 cm are 1.1 times the line length of the scale line every 0.1 cm. The width is the same, and a scale number 50b indicating the scale value of each scale line is provided near the inner end of the scale line every 0.5 cm.

B) A scale line having a scale value of 0 cm is defined as a starting point 20.
C. The arbitrarily determined scale value interval is 0.02 cm.
2. From the starting point 20, temporary numbers are assigned in ascending order from 0 to 1 in order to each scale line every 0.02 cm, which is a scale value interval determined arbitrarily.
E, the line length and line width of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a with the lowest number of the temporary number being 2, 3, 7, 8, and the lowest number of the temporary number being 1, 4, 6 , 9, which is 1.1 times the line length of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a, and the line width is the same as the scale line for each 0.1 cm, and is attached to the inner ends of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a. “4”, “4”, which is the number of the second decimal place in terms of cm in terms of the scale value of each scale line and the circular mark 40 colored black inside the diameter of twice the scale line. 6 ”is provided.
F. A notch 45 is formed at the same position in the middle part of all the scale lines to erase the scale line having a width 0.3 times the line length of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a.
The opening 22 is provided in a range sandwiched between the notches 45 and the notches 45.

Such a scale is provided in a setting portion such as a feed scale of a lathe, and a setting pointer 48 is provided in the opening 22.
The provided pointer 48 may be fixed and the scale body 10 may be moved to determine the feed amount or the scale body 10 may be fixed and the pointer 48 may be moved to determine the feed amount or the like.

  Thus, the line lengths and line widths of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a, which are the minimum scale lines, are longer than those of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a, which are also the minimum scale lines, and the line widths are increased. By thickening and providing circular marks 40 and scale numbers 50a at the inner ends of the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a, the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a The display method is different.

  If a scale having such a difference between the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a is provided in a setting unit such as a feed scale of a lathe, a minimum scale line formed by four. However, the line width of the second scale line and the third scale line is larger than the line width of the first and fourth scale lines, counting from the direction where the scale value is 0. The scale value of the 3rd scale line should be converted to cm and it should be understood that the number of the second decimal place will be 4 and 6, and measurement should be performed using the scale number 50a provided there as a guide. Thus, each minimum scale line can be discriminated intuitively and the scale value of each minimum scale line can be easily read without counting the minimum scale lines formed four by one.

Further, in this embodiment, the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a are provided with the scale numbers 50a "4" and "6", so that the scale lines 32a are compared with the case where the scale numbers 50a are not provided. , 33a, 37a, 38a can be easily read.
Further, since the scale number 50a is provided on the scale line adjacent to the scale line 32a and the scale line 33a and the scale line 37a and the scale line 38a, the scale amount is determined from the difference between the scale numbers 50a of "4" and "6". , 0.02 cm can be easily grasped.

  Thus, it can be easily grasped that the graduation is 0.02 cm, and the graduation lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a without the graduation numerals 50a adjacent to the graduation lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a are also graduations. The scale values of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a are also added to the scale numbers 50a of the lines 32a, 33a, 37a, and 38a, and the scale values of the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, and 39a are also scaled lines 32a, 33a, 37a, As with 38a, the scale value is easier to read than when the scale number 50a is not provided.

In addition, since the scale value is read by sandwiching the pointer 48 between the scale lines on both sides of the notch 45, the pointer 48 has higher visibility than when the pointer 48 is provided on one side edge of the scale body 10. The scale value of each scale line is easy to interpret.
Further, since the scale lines 32a, 33a, 37a, 38a and the scale lines 31a, 34a, 36a, 39a have different line widths, the scale lines on both sides are easily distinguished from each other and the scale values can be easily read.
Accordingly, in FIG. 33, it can be easily understood that the scale value indicated by the pointer 48 is 0.62 cm.
If such a scale is used as a scale of a setting section such as a feed scale of a lathe, the scale can be set accurately and quickly.
The present invention is configured as described above.

Further, since the scale displays 102b, 103b, 107b, and 108b can be intuitively discriminated, the scale displays that become the adjacent scale displays 101b, 104b, 106b, and 109b can also be intuitively discriminated.
As described above, the scale displays 101b, 102b, 103b, 104b, 106b, 107b, 108b, and 109b can be intuitively discriminated, so that the scale can be easily set.

  In addition, in a scale where a scale display with a scale value of 0 is not provided, the scale value is 0 in each scale display at any scale interval including an assumed scale display with a scale value of 0. Starting from the scale display, the temporary numbers are assigned in ascending order from 0 to 1 in order, and the lowest number of the temporary numbers of the scale display actually provided is the scale display 102b. , 103b, 107b, 108b and the display methods of the scale displays 101b, 104b, 106b, 109b in which the lowest numbers of the temporary numbers are 1, 4, 6, 9 are different. Even if it does in this way, since the effect of an invention does not change, it may do so. (Not shown)

  Further, since the adjacent scale displays 102b, 103b, 107b, 108b are displayed by the scale numbers 50b of “2”, “3”, “7”, “8”, this “2”, It is easy to grasp the position of the scale display of “3”, “7”, “8”.

  The scale displays 102b and 103b of “2” and “3” are located at the center of the scale displays 101b, 102b, 103b, and 104b, and the scale displays 107b and 108b of “7” and “8” are also scale displays. Since it is located at the center of 106b, 107b, 108b, 109b, it is easy to grasp the position of the scale numbers 50b of “2”, “3”, “7”, “8”.

  Further, the scale display of the scale numbers 50b of “2”, “3”, “7”, “8” is provided, so that the scale numbers of “2”, “3”, “7”, “8” are provided. 50b is a guide and it is easy to grasp the overall scale position.
