Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of length and thickness measuring tools, in particular to a ruler-type caliper. Background Art

[0002] Existing calipers for measuring length do not have a scale. During measurement, the two measuring claws of the caliper are placed against the workpiece to be measured. The caliper is then removed from the workpiece to measure the distance between the two measuring claws to obtain the measured dimensions of the workpiece. However, this method is limited in that the two measuring claws must be stationary during the caliper removal process. Once they move, accurate measurements of the workpiece's measured portion cannot be obtained. Only the overall planar dimensions or circular axis dimensions of workpieces with unobstructed edges can be measured. Irregular workpieces, such as those with thick edges and thin interiors, or those with small openings and large cavities, cannot be measured. Furthermore, for such irregular workpieces, the two measuring claws must be pulled outward while remaining stationary when the caliper is removed, which can easily scratch the surface of the irregular workpiece.
