Abstract
Abstract An angle measuring device comprises a base, a telescope seated thereupon for rotation about an axis, a graduated circle having a line division, a micrometer for subdividing said line division, and photoelectric scanners for detecting angular values from said line division and from said micrometer. A graduated plate provided with a reticle is located in said telescope. Said reticle has a zone limited by two line marks which are arranged in parallel and symmetrically to and on either side of one of the reticle lines. Said two lines are spaced from said reticle line by a width which is at least double the size of one division interval of the graduated circle line division.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
176 words
An angle measuring device comprising a base, a telescope being seated for rotation about at least one axis relative to said base, at least one graduated circle being provided with at least one line division of equally spaced intervals, said graduated circle being connected to said base, at least one scanner being connected with said telescope said scanner and said graduated circle being for measuring the rotations of said telescope, a micrometer for subdividing said division intervals, at least one electro-optic scanning means for taking readings on said micrometer, electronic means connected to said scaner and said reading means for detecting signals from said scanner and said reading means and for formation of an angular measuring result, a graduated plate being arranged in the field of view of said telescope and being provided with a reticle, said graduated plate being provided with two lines substantially symmetrical and in parallel with one line of said reticle and being spaced apart from said one line by at least the width of one division interval of said line division.
