SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR HIDDEN OBJECT DETECTOR WITH LEVEL
First Claim
1. A detector level system for use with a work-piece comprising:
- a clam shell housing with a first shell and a second shell that define a set of lateral walls and a cavity, the set of lateral walls defining two parallel planes;
a hidden object detector retained within the cavity and operable to detect an object hidden by the work-piece;
at least one bubble level retained in the cavity, the at least one bubble level being disposed between the parallel planes and visible through apertures formed in the set of lateral walls; and
at least one magnet coupled to one of the first shell or second shell, the at least one magnet operable to enable the detector level system to be coupled to a metallic material.

Abstract
A detector level system for use with a work-piece is provided. The system can include a clam shell housing with a first shell and a second shell that define a set of lateral walls and a cavity. The set of lateral walls can define two parallel planes. The system can include a hidden object detector retained within the cavity and operable to detect an object hidden by the work-piece. The system can further include at least one bubble level retained in the cavity. The at least bubble level can be disposed between the parallel planes and visible through apertures formed in the set of lateral walls. The system can include at least one magnet coupled to one of the first shell, or second shell. The at least one magnet can be operable to enable the detector level system to be coupled to a metallic material.

8. A detector level system for use with a work-piece comprising:
-
a clam shell housing with a first shell, a second shell and a support structure that define a cavity and a uniform marking surface when assembled; the support structure coupled to the first shell and the second shell such that at least a portion of the support structure is positioned within the cavity. a hidden object detector received in the housing, the hidden object detector operable to detect an object hidden by the work-piece; and a first bubble level coupled to at least one of the first shell, the second shell and the support structure such that the first bubble level is disposed between the first shell and the second shell, the first bubble level being visible through apertures formed in at least one of the first shell, the second shell and the support structure. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A detector level system for use with a work-piece comprising:
-
a clam shell housing with a first shell and a second shell that define a cavity and a first level support; a metal support structure coupled to the housing and at least partially disposed within the cavity; a hidden object detector received in the housing, the hidden object detector operable to detect an object hidden by the work-piece; and a first bubble level coupled to the first level support such that the first bubble level is disposed within the housing. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)

19. A detector level system for use with a work-piece comprising:
-
a clam shell housing with a first shell and a second shell that define a cavity and at least one level support; a metal support structure coupled to the housing and at least partially disposed within the cavity, the support structure having a mount, at least one level support and a longitudinally extending groove, at least a portion of the longitudinally extending groove having a pair of transverse surfaces as viewed in a cross-section that is taken perpendicular to the longitudinally extending groove; a hidden object detector received in the mount, the hidden object detector operable to detect an object hidden by the work-piece; and at least one bubble level coupled to the at least one level support such that the at least one bubble level is disposed within the housing. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21)
