ABSTRACT:
A gyro apparatus including a gyro case for housing a gyro therein, the spin axis of which is selected to be substantially horizontal, a container for accommodating therein the gyro case and containing a liquid within it, a first supporting device for supporting the gyro case within the container, a second supporting device for supporting the container in a manner that the container may have the freedom of three axes, and a vertical follow-up device for making the container to follow-up the gryo case around a gravity line, in which there is further provided a device in connection with the container for substantially changing the gap formed between the container containing the liquid and the gyro case from the outside of the container so as to adjust the displacement between the center of gravity of the gryo case and the center of viscous force caused by the liquid acting on the gyro case.
