Abstract

The implement for taking skull and face measurements, e.g. for the purpose of morphological studies, consists of a pair of curved plates (2,3) with a series of radial rods (1) able to slide between them which can be moved to follow the contours of facial or cranial features. The two plates are joined together by a series of screws (4), and they cvan have at least one articulated joint to allow the plates to be opened. The plates can also be equipped with one or more transparent sheets which can be attached on either side to allow a measured contour to be copied.

  I Dispositif effectuer des mensurations cranio-faciales en vue d'une étude morPhologique L'invention concerne un instrument permettant de relever les points nécessaires pour différents tracés permettant l'étude morphologique cranio-faciale. 



  11 existe des appareils permettant le relevé des profiles des moulures en architecture. Ceux-ci consiste en dents de peigne coulissant entre deux plaques rectilignes maintenues en pression constante par des rivets. Ceux-ci s'adapte mal   a   la forme de la tête et ne permettent pas, en une opération le relevé des points maxillo-facials nécessaire à l'étude. 



  La présente invention à pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients. 



  L'invention telle quelle est caractérisée dans les revendications résout le problème. 



  Les avantages obtenus grâce à cette invention consiste au fait de pouvoir relever en une opération autour de la tete et de fa-   con precise a   la fois le profil grace aux tiges coulissantes suivant le profil de la personne et les points obtenus par viseur sur des plaques transparentes. Celle-ci peuvent coulisser jusqu'à la partie qui a relevé le profil et au moyen d'une feuille de papier, il est aisé de relever le profil et les points maxil lo-facials nécessaire A l'étude. 



  L'invention est exposée   ci-apyres   plus en detail à l'aide de dessins représentant seulement un mode d'execution.

  La figure 2 représente en perepective le dispositif suivant la figure I et I bis, dans lequel se trouve perpendiculairement A l'axe de profil une tige 6 sur laquelle le dispositif figure I et I bis peut coulisser, au moyen d'un vide 7 dans au moins   l'   un des cintres et qui s'adapte à la tige et se fixe par une via 8. Au moins une plaque transparente peut être fixée à la tige 6 coulissant au moyen d'un trou 9 s'adaptant à la tige 6 et maintenue par une vis 10. 



  La dite tige 6 est consue avec une forme ne permettant pas aux pièces coulissant de tourner sur son axe. 



  La figure 3 représente en perspective un viseur pour relever les points nécessaire à   l'etude   morphologique. Il se compose d'une forme cylindrique creuse II et de deux segments de droite croi-

 EMI1.1
 



  I Device for carrying out cranio-facial measurements for the purpose of a morphological study The invention relates to an instrument making it possible to identify the points necessary for different plots allowing the cranio-facial morphological study.



  11 exist apparatuses allowing the survey of the profiles of the moldings in architecture. These consist of comb teeth sliding between two rectilinear plates maintained at constant pressure by rivets. These adapt poorly to the shape of the head and do not allow, in one operation the reading of the maxillofacial points necessary for the study.



  The present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks.



  The invention as characterized in the claims solves the problem.



  The advantages obtained thanks to this invention consists in being able to raise in an operation around the head and in a precise manner both the profile thanks to the sliding rods according to the profile of the person and the points obtained by sight on plates. transparent. These can slide to the part which has raised the profile and by means of a sheet of paper, it is easy to note the profile and the maxil lo-facial points necessary for the study.



  The invention is set out below in more detail with the aid of drawings representing only one embodiment.



  Figure I shows in perspective a device made in accordance with the part raising the profile along this axis, by means of sliding rods I abutting on the head and hand-

  Figure 2 shows in perspective the device according to Figure I and I bis, in which is located perpendicular to the profile axis a rod 6 on which the device Figure I and I bis can slide, by means of a vacuum 7 in at least one of the hangers and which adapts to the rod and is fixed by a via 8. At least one transparent plate can be fixed to the rod 6 sliding by means of a hole 9 adapting to the rod 6 and held by a screw 10.



  Said rod 6 is designed with a shape that does not allow the sliding parts to rotate on its axis.



  Figure 3 shows in perspective a viewfinder to identify the points necessary for the morphological study. It consists of a hollow cylindrical shape II and two segments of cross line

 sees in their center 12 and 13 located at a distance from each other in order to be able to superimpose them to find the point in a manner perpendicular to the plane of the transparent plate and the point to be raised. A recessed part 16 in the cylindrical shape allows access to a marker in order to note the point thus obtained.
