Tran′sit-cir′cle.

Troughton's transit-circle (Fig. 6611) unites the functions of the mural circle and the transit-instrument.

The telescope is fixed between two parallel, flat metallic circles, or rings, the exterior faces of which are graduated to 5′. These rings are connected with the horizontal axis by two sets of hollow, radial arms, so as to form two wheels 4 feet in diameter, and are connected with each other by a system of transverse and diagonal rods. The axis, 3 feet in length, consists of a central cylindrical portion into which the spokes are inserted, and two projecting cones resting on Y's in two stone piers. The faces of these piers coincide with the plane of the meridian. The Y's are provided with vertical and horizontal adjustments for placing the line of collimation of the telescope exactly in the plane of the meridian.
