FIELD: gyroscopic engineering.
SUBSTANCE: gyro meter can be used for measuring angular inclinations from vertical and cross-lateral accelerations. Meter has two float spherical gyros provided with two-coordinate angle pick-ups. Center of mass of one gyro rotor is shifted at the direction of kinetic moment vector. Meter also has data conversion unit which includes four adders, two integrators and two nonselective amplifiers with transmission factor of k1=m l g/bΩ and time constant T being equal to time constant of float gyros, where l is axial shift of center of mass of spherical float of one gyro, m is weight of floats, g is free fall acceleration, b is factor of liquid damping, Ω is angular velocity of floats self-rotation.
EFFECT: simplified procedure of measurement.
