Description

  The present invention relates to a measure used when, for example, a photograph is used to record the size of a fish caught in a fishing competition or the like.

  Conventionally, a measure with a scale has been used to measure the size of a fish. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a measure with a line scale of a scale unit of 5 mm.

  However, when recording with a photograph using a measure with a line scale in this way, the line scale does not appear in the photograph and is not suitable for recording a photograph.

  Therefore, it is necessary to use a measure with a boundary scale for recording a photograph. However, in consideration of the photograph, 5 mm is the limit even if an attempt is made to reduce the scale unit. In that case, the size of the fish can only be measured in units of 5 mm with a measure with a border scale. Particularly in fishing competitions, measurement with high accuracy of 1 mm unit is required, and improvement of the measurement accuracy is required.

In other words, if it is assumed to be used for photographic recording, the scale needs to be a boundary scale, and there is a need for means that can improve the measurement accuracy in a measure with this boundary scale.
Utility Model Registration No. 3078198

  The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide means that can improve the measurement accuracy of a measure with a boundary scale.

  The measure of the present invention consists of a tape-like measure body with a boundary scale in two colors (usually black and white) on the surface, and a transparent cursor that is slidable along the longitudinal direction of the measure body. The cursor body has a line graduation that is smaller in scale units than the measure body border scale at a position that overlaps the measure body border scale, and this line scale is the scale unit of the measure body border scale. It is characterized by being alternately color-coded by two kinds of colors on the boundary scale every time.

  Thus, the main measure of the present invention is a tape-shaped main body with a boundary scale, and can be used without problems for photographic recording. And, the measurement accuracy is improved by slidably attaching a transparent cursor body with a scale that is smaller than the border scale to the measure body. be able to.

  In the boundary scale, two color areas (usually black area and white area) are alternately arranged for each scale unit, so the line scale attached to the cursor body is the boundary scale. In order to make it easy to see when they are superimposed on each other, they are alternately color-coded by two kinds of colors of the boundary scale for each scale unit of the boundary scale. In other words, when the two colors of the boundary scale are black and white, the white line scale is aligned with the black area of the boundary scale, and the black line scale is aligned with the white area of the boundary scale. The scale is easy to see and the length can be easily measured.

  In the measure of the present invention, the lower end position of the line scale of the cursor body is preferably positioned higher than the lower end position of the boundary scale of the measure body. By adopting such a configuration, the boundary scale can be surely captured during photo recording, and the line scale can be easily seen.

  According to the present invention, the measurement accuracy of a measure with a boundary scale can be improved, so that it can be used for recording a photograph and the length of the measurement object can be grasped more accurately.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the embodiments shown in the drawings.

  The measure of the present invention includes a measure body and a cursor body slidably mounted on the measure body. Of these, FIG. 1 shows the main body, and FIG. 2 shows the cursor body.

  The measure shown in the present embodiment is a measure having a total length of 1 m used when recording the size of a fish with a photograph, and the measure main body 1 is made of a tape-like material made of synthetic resin such as acrylic, PE, or PVC. As shown in FIG. 1, a boundary scale 2 having a scale unit of 5 mm is attached to the surface of the main body 1. That is, the boundary scale 2 is configured by alternately arranging black regions 2a having a width of 5 mm and white regions 2b having a width of 5 mm. Also, numbers are printed on the surface of the main body 1 at intervals of 10 cm so that the size of the fish can be seen at a glance when recording a photograph.

  A positioning member 3 for positioning the tip of the fish head is attached to the base end of the measure body 1. The positioning member 3 is pivotally attached to the base end of the measure main body 1 by a hinge 4 and is raised as shown in FIG. 1B when in use, and otherwise indicated by an arrow in FIG. 1B. Rotate in the direction so that it does not get in the way when folded, transported or stored.

  On the other hand, the cursor body 5 attached to the measure body 1 is made of a transparent material such as acrylic, and the surface is provided with a line scale 6 having a total length of 5 cm and a scale unit of 1 mm as shown in FIG. . The line graduations 6 are alternately color-coded by white (6a portion in FIG. 2A) and black (6b portion in FIG. 2A) for each graduation unit of the boundary graduation 2, that is, every 5 mm. . Further, the scales at both ends of the line scale 6 are formed long in order to facilitate positioning with the boundary scale 2 described later.

  Further, the upper end and the lower end of the cursor body 5 are bent as shown in FIG. 2B, thereby forming the insertion portions 7 into which both side portions of the tape-shaped measure main body 1 described above are inserted. By inserting both side portions of the measure body 1 into the insertion portion 7, the cursor body 5 is slidably mounted along the longitudinal direction of the measure body 1, and the measure of the present invention is configured.

  FIG. 3 is a plan view showing the main part of the major of the present invention.

  In FIG. 3, the cursor body 5 is mounted so as to be slidable along the longitudinal direction of the measure body 1 (the arrow direction in FIG. 3). The line scale 6 of the cursor body 5 is attached at a position overlapping the boundary scale 2 of the measure body 1.

  As described above, since the scale unit of the boundary scale 6 attached to the main body 1 is 5 mm, depending on the boundary scale, the size of the fish can be measured only in units of 5 mm. On the other hand, in the present invention, a cursor body 5 with a line scale 6 (in this embodiment, the scale unit is 1 mm) having a smaller scale unit than the boundary scale 2 of the measure body 1 is provided along the longitudinal direction of the measure body 1. By slidably mounting and positioning as shown in FIG. 3, it is possible to measure with high accuracy (in this embodiment, in units of 1 mm).

  That is, the line scale 6 attached to the cursor body 5 is changed from the white area 6a to the black area 2a of the boundary scale 2 attached to the measure body 1, and the black area 6b of the line scale 6 is changed to the white area 2b of the boundary scale 2. Position to fit. By positioning in this way, as shown in FIG. 3, the white area 6 a of the line scale 6 is above the black area 2 a of the boundary scale 2, and the black area 6 b of the line scale 6 is the white area 2 b of the boundary scale 2. Since it is located above, the line scale 6 can be visually recognized. As a result, it is possible to measure in 1 mm units using the line scale 6.

  When positioning the line scale 6 of the cursor body 5 on the boundary scale 2 of the measure body 1, since the scales at both ends of the line scale 6 are formed long, it can be easily positioned by matching them to the boundary scale 2.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, the lower end position of the line scale 6 of the cursor body 5 is positioned higher than the lower end position of the boundary scale 2 of the measure body 1. By adopting such a configuration, the lower end portion of the boundary scale 2 can be completely seen, and the boundary scale 2 can be surely captured during photo recording. Further, the boundary scale 2 and the line scale 6 are easily distinguished, and the line scale 6 is also easy to see.

  The present invention can be used as a measure for recording the size of fish, and can also be used as a measure for recording the size of various structures in construction sites such as civil engineering and construction, and disaster sites.

The major measurement main body of the present invention is shown, (a) is a plan view, (b) is a side view. The measure cursor body of this invention is shown, (a) is a top view, (b) is a front view. It is a top view which shows the principal part of the major of this invention.
