Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides a measuring tool comprising a support portion and a measuring portion, the measuring portion is movably connected to the support portion, the support portion is configured for supporting the measuring portion, the measuring portion is configured for successively measuring at least one gap between a base and a workpiece on the base. The measuring tools, by providing a measuring portion capable of successively measuring at least one gap between the rubbing base and the rubbing roller, avoid frequent replacement of the measuring portion, thereby the measuring efficiency is increased greatly, and the utilization rate of processing equipment is improved.

First claim

1 . A measuring tool, comprising a support portion and a measuring portion, wherein the measuring portion is movably connected to the support portion, the support portion is configured for supporting the measuring portion, and the measuring portion is configured for successively measuring at least one gap between a base and a workpiece on the base. 2 . The measuring tool of claim 1 , wherein the support portion includes a support rod, the measuring portion includes a plurality of rolling elements having different diameters respectively, the rolling elements are connected to the support rod, and the rolling elements are capable of rolling on the base. 3 . The measuring tool of claim 2 , wherein the rolling elements are circular plates, the center of each circular plate is connected to the support rod. 4 . The measuring tool of claim 2 , wherein the rolling elements are spheres, the center of each sphere is connected to the support rod, and the spheres are capable of rotating about their center in any direction. 5 . The measuring tool of claim 2 , wherein the rolling elements have a cylindrical shape. 6 . The measuring tool of claim 2 , wherein the plurality of rolling elements are arranged along the longitudinal direction of the support rod in a descending or ascending order of their diameters. 7 . The measuring tool of claim 2 , wherein the centers of the plurality of rolling elements are arranged in a line. 8 . The measuring tool of claim 2 , wherein the portions of the plurality of rolling elements to be in contact with the base are arranged on a same plane. 9 . The measuring tool of claim 2 , wherein the diameters of the plurality of rolling elements increase sequentially in a linear manner. 10 . The measuring tool of claim 2 , wherein the rolling elements are made of rubber or metallic material. 11 . The measuring tool of claim 2 , wherein the support portion further includes a plurality of rollers, the axes of the rollers are connected to the support rod, the rollers are capable of rotating about their axes. 12 . The measuring tool of claim 11 , wherein the plurality of rollers are arranged along the longitudinal direction of the support rod with equal intervals, the portions of the rollers to be in contact with the base are arranged on a same plane as the portions of the rolling elements to be in contact with the base. 13 . The measuring tool of claim 2 , further comprises a push rod, one end of the push rod is connected to the end of the support rod closing to the rolling element having the maximum diameter, the push rod is elongated or shortened for pushing the support rod to move. 14 . The measuring tool of claim 13 , wherein one end of the push rod is provided with a first connector, and a second connector is provided at the end of the support rod closing to the rolling element having the maximum diameter, the first connector and the second connector are interconnected or disconnected. 15 . The measuring tool of claim 14 , wherein the first connector and the second connector are magnets capable of attracting each other; or the first connector is a hook, and the second connector is a shackle adapted to the hook.
