摘要： A yarn entanglement strength tester includes first and second rolls that apply incrementally increasing elongation levels on a yarn in order to remove entanglements from the yarn. The yarn entanglement strength tester also includes a third roll, where the second and third rolls apply a constant tension on the yarn which enables optimum diameter measurements of the yarn by a camera. The camera captures images of diameters of the yarn after each of the incrementally increasing elongation levels is applied to the yarn. The yarn entanglement strength tester further includes a computing device that controls operation of the camera and the first, second, and third rolls, and determines an entanglement strength of the yarn based on the captured images of the diameters of the yarn after each of the incrementally increasing elongation levels is applied to the yarn.

摘要： A test apparatus is provided for measuring loads applied to an object and for measuring the deformation of the object in response to the loads. The test apparatus includes a stationary work head and a movable arm. The movable arm is selectively movable toward or away from the stationary work head. A load cell has a driven end mounted to the movable arm and a sensing end spaced from the movable arm. A movable work head is mounted to the sensing end and is configured for applying a load to a test object positioned between the stationary and movable work heads. A liner scale also is mounted to the sensing end of the load cell, and a linear encoder or read head is mounted in spaced relationship to the linear scale. The encoder reads deflection in the apparatus in view of loads applied during a test. A controller is provided for moving the movable work head in accordance with test parameters. The controller also receives output from the load cell and the read head, and uses that outputted information to develop stress-strain analytical data.

摘要： A horizontal plane frictional coefficient testing apparatus and methods are provided which include a substantially horizontal planar platen (16) having two spaced, parallel movable rails (46,48). The rails (46,48) are actuated by a motor (50) adapted for reversibly raising and lowering the rails relative to the platen. A sled (18) of predetermined weight is also provided having a central body and two pairs of outwardly extending axles (54), with each pair of axles being of equal length and formed with a wheel (60) at the end thereof. The wheels (60) of the sled (18) are formed for engagement with the rails and engagement of the wheels with the rails locates the sled generally parallel to the rails. In operation, a sample of sheet material is fixed to the sled and the sled is placed on the rails, with the rails being in a raised position. Subsequently, the rails are lowered to gently place the sled onto the platen or a test medium (12) fixed to the platen. A drive arm (20) is included with the apparatus for pulling the sled relative to the platen at various rates of translation. A load sensor (22) mounted on the drive arm measures in real time the force applied to the sled during the course of the test. The data collected by the load sensor is transmitted to a central processing unit (24) which calculates the coefficients of friction. A timing mechanism (90) may be provided to monitor the dwell time of the sled on the platen prior to initiation of the tests. Also, a semi-rigid coupling may be used to connect the sled to the drive arm.
