ABSTRACT:
An apparatus using piezoelectric effect is provided for measuring an angle between a reference plane and a plane to be measured. Such an apparatus can be used to measure the inclination of a plane or for leveling purpose. The main characteristics of the apparatus are simple in structure, no limitation in the measurement range, and less limitation to the environment. The apparatus also has the following advantages: compact, quick and accurate measurement, easy for multiaxial measurement.
