Electronic linear tape measure using a low power induced current position transducer

摘要: An electronic linear tape measure using a low power induced current position transducer. The includes an enclosure case with lateral slot through which the blade can be pulled. is wound inside on reel mounted axis support that has spring loaded rewind mechanism. Also included are lock, keypad for various functions, and conventional LCD display displaying measured lengths. signal processing electronics of connected to active portion provides indication relative between elements transducer coincides length been pulled from case. relatively insensitive nature contaminants, damage mechanical shock allows construction preferred, historically proven, form functions greatly improved reliability when operating in traditional environment. Additionally, consumption significantly increases practicality measure.
