Niveau formé d'un tube transparent fermé, enchâssé dans une monture et plein d'un liquide, à l'exception d'une bulle d'air. (Celle-ci demeure toujours en équilibre à la partie la plus élevée du tube, de manière que la ligne joignant ses extrémités soit horizontale. Deux repères indiquent la position de la bulle dans ce cas. Dans certains niveau, une vis permet le réglage. Le niveau à bulle a été inventé au XVIIe s., perfectionné par la suite. On l'adapte souvent à des instruments de physique, afin de rendre vertical un axe de rotation.) 2, record 3, French, - niveau%20%C3%A0%20bulle%20d%27air
