Description:
The object of my invention is to provide a micrometer, which will both indicate and accurately measure slight differences of size between articles or portions of the same article upon comparing them one with another or with a standard gage. It consists, first, of a body inclosing a sliding bar and carrying an index needle actuated by the sliding bar, with a graduated scale upon the end of the body and an adjusting screw opposite to the sliding bar, the screw and bar forming the jaws; second, of a multiplying index needle actuated directly by the sliding bar without the aid or intervention of lever bars; third, of a micrometer provided with a scale graduated both ways from a central zero-point at the extremity of the index needle; fourth, of an index-needle and sliding bar operating together and both controlled by a spring acting directly upon the index-needle and through it upon the sliding bar in the head of the micrometer; fifth, of the several combinations of parts hereinafter specified.
