exact reading can be obtained by
means of the "vernier" scale.
Figure ! shows the vernier dial to
which ! refer. Starting at zero, the
celebrations run clockwise and coun-
.erclockwise on the moving dial so
that readings can be taken for ad-
justing a clockWise or counterclock-
wise instrument.
The figures appear in the window
Of the outer casing of the dial. The
yernier scales both clockWise ana
counterclockwise are engraved on the
indicator section Of the outer casing.
This scale remains stationary.
Detailed Diagram Shown.
A detailed diagram of the vernier
9, only the Clockwise section is
and main scales is shown in Figure
shown for simplicity. The upper
scale is the vernier, the lower repre-
sents a section of the dial. You viii
notice that while the Vernier scale Is
| divided into 10 equal divisions, these
| 10 divisions on the Vernier scale cover
only nine divisions on the main scale.
! The result Is that each division on
| the Vernier scale Is equal to only
nine.tenths of a division on the main
scale.
If we set the zero division of the
| main scale directly opposite the zero
| division of the Vernier, the NO. dlVl.
| sion of the dial will be one.tenth OF
a dial division behind the NO. uiVi-
sion of the vernier scale because the
vernier division is equal to nine.tenths.
! of the dial division. If we move the
! dial in a counterclockWse dlrectioh
| until the No. divisions of both scaIes
| are directly opposite each otner' 1he
| dial will have moved one-tenth OIL
| dial division in a counterclocKWise, ui-
| rection and the zero OF the dial VIII pe
| one.tenth Of a division past the IN
| dicator or zero line of the yernier
| scale. With the No. 1 divisions OF the
| two scales directly opposite each other
| the No. division of the. dial is one
/ tenth of a division behind the NO.
I division on the Vernier scale move
ment of the dial to bring the NO. :
/ divisions opposite each other moves
| the dial through another tenth OF "a
/ dial division.
| Division of Vernier Scale.
/ By successive tenth Of division
| movements, the dial can be moved
/ through a whole division so that the
| No. | division of the dial comes op-
| posite to the zero line Of the vernler.
| In that case the No. 10 division or the
| Vernier scale viii be 1ouno ulTectly
| opposite the No. 10 division of the dial
instead of opposite the No. division
of the dial.
In setting and reading the dial the
zero line of the vernier scale is used
as the reference line just as the refer
ence line or indicator of any ordinary
dial is used. The decimal reading is
obtained by noting which line or the
yernier scale is directly opposite line
on the main scale. In Fig the fourth
division of the vernier scale is directly
opposite a division line on the main
scale This means that the reading is
four tenths past the whole number
which in this case is q on the dial as
shown by the fact that the No. Il is
| past the zero line of the vernier scale.
| The reading in the case shown in Fig.
| 3 is 21.4.
