Abstract

Contact probes devised for measuring depths and widths of slots. Configured in conical or wedge shapes, depending on specific applications. Conical or wedge surface of probe centers probe in slot, while two thin probe rods made to protrude from cone or wedge until their tips simultaneously make contact with outer surface and bottom of slot.
