Abstract

A ruler assembly with multiple scales includes a ruler being an oblong plate with a top surface and a bottom surface and four lateral sides between the top surface and the bottom surface; at least two sides of the top and bottom surfaces being formed with scales; and at least one an oblong hole penetrated through the ruler; at least one side of the oblong hole being formed with scales. The scales are units of length or units of scale ratios which shows the ratio of a measured length with respect to a real length, and in that the measured length is a length of an object which is reduced from an original object with a predetermined ratio; or a side of the oblong hole is formed as a drawing with non-straight sides so as to present a pattern.

Claims (14)

1. A ruler assembly with multiple scales comprising:

a ruler being an oblong plate with a top surface and a bottom surface and four lateral sides between the top surface and the bottom surface; at least two lateral sides of the top and bottom surfaces being formed with scales; and

an oblong hole penetrated through the ruler; at least one side of the oblong hole being formed with scales.

2. The ruler assembly with multiple scales as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the scales are unit of lengths.

3. The ruler assembly with multiple scales as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the scales are unit of scale ratios which shows the ratio of a measured length with respect to a real length, and in that the measured length is a length of an object which is reduced from an original object with a predetermined ratio.

4. The ruler assembly with multiple scales as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one scale is units of length and at least one scale is unit of scale ratios which shows the ratio of a measured length with respect to a real length, and in that the measured length is a length of an object which is reduced from an original object with a predetermined ratio.

5. The ruler assembly with multiple scales as claimed in claim 1 , wherein two scales on the sides of the top and the bottom surface are at opposite sides of the top and the bottom surface.

6. The ruler assembly with multiple scales as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a scale at one side of the oblong long hole; and two scales at sides of the oblong hole are at opposite sides of the oblong hole.

7. The ruler assembly with multiple scales as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a long side of the oblong hole is parallel to a long side of the ruler.

8. The ruler assembly with multiple scales as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a side of the oblong hole is formed as a drawing with non-straight sides so as to present a irregular figure.

9. The ruler assembly with multiple scales as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a material of the ruler is selected from metals, plastics, and hard papers.

10. The ruler assembly with multiple scales as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising another oblong hole which has at least one scale aside the oblong hole.

11. The ruler assembly with multiple scales as claimed in claim 10 , wherein a side of the another oblong hole is formed as a drawing with non-straight sides so as to present a pattern.

12. The ruler assembly with multiple scales as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising another oblong hole which has at least two scales aside the oblong hole.
