A Lock Mechanism For A Digital Dial Indicator

Abstract: Present disclosure relates to a lock mechanism (100) for a digital dial indicator (200). The mecha-nism comprises a plunger (108) movably disposed in a housing (210) and displaceable from a first position to a second position. A contact portion (109) is attached to a first end of the plunger. A handle (102) is fixedly attached to a second end of the plunger. The handle is configured to dis-place the plunger between the first position and the second position. At least one bracket (106) is attached to the plunger (108) proximate to the handle. An index plunger (104) is fixedly attached to the at least one bracket. The index plunger is configured to selectively actuate the handle and arrest a movement of the plunger in the second position. The mechanism retracts the and holds the plunger in place to protect the plunger from breakage. [FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 are the representative figures.]
