In Fig. 31 is shown the compass box a with its strong screwed-on hd 6, and inner glass lid c held by a screw collar. The pillar d bears the compass card e while / is a tube sliding on d flanged and serrated at the top. About this is a spiral spring % pressing the flange upward for its toothed edge to grip the compass card e against the glass lid c. A slot and pin on d prevent rotation of the tube. The catch lever g holds down / by the flange when the apparatus is set; it turns on pin g' on the box floor. The floor trigger h hinged to g has a flange and spiral spring K for operating the catch lever and permitting / to grip the card bearing the needle. An India-rubber ring under the card aids the teeth.
