<p>A bore gauge incorporates one or more electromagnetic transducers (3) housed in a shroud (1) which in use is inserted into the bore to be gauged. Each transducer (3) comprises a coil (31) and a core (37) movable within the coil (31). In one embodiment the coil (31) and the core (37) of a single transducer (3) are mounted on opposite limbs (24, 25) of a flexible one- piece machined or cast fork-like structure (23), the two limbs (24, 25) carrying gauging contacts (4) for engagement with the walls of the bore. The shroud (1) locates the fork (23) accurately and ensures that the measurement is truly on a diameter of the bore. In other embodiments, incorporating a plurality of transducers (3), coils (31) are rigidly mounted within the shroud (1) and cores (3) are mounted on flexible limbs (60) set in slots in the surface of the shroud (1), each flexible limb (60) carrying a gauging contact (4).</p> |
