OPTOMECHANICAL INSTRUMENT TO MEASURE AUTOMOTIVE STEERING WHEEL FREE TRAVEL

摘要

FIELD: transport. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention relates to measuring and testing instruments and aims at controlling ICE timing phases and measuring steering wheel free travel. Proposed device comprises bracket with tightening screw and angle meter including base with built-in magnets and case with graduated torus-like glass ampoule filled with fluid with air bubble and angle meter scale with count start from left to right. Note here that said case with ampoule is articulated with angle meter base. Proposed device differs from know designs in that angle meter is integrated with bracket to arrange the latter vertically with its screw directed downward. Note also that angle meter base is connected by magnets to bracket vertically with its hinge directed upward. Besides, said case with ampoule may be located on the right of hinge. Note here that aforesaid scale with origin of count from right to left is applied on opposite side of scale with origin of count from left to right. ^ EFFECT: control over ICE timing. ^ 3 dwg
