    摘要: The present invention refers to a hardness tester provided with a rotating measuring head, a first rotating device and a second rotating device, wherein said rotating measuring head is secured to said rotating device and is capable of rotating with respect to it, and wherein said first rotating device and said second rotating device are secured to each other and inclined with respect to each other.
    In this way, thanks to the combination of the two angles of the rotating devices with respect to the rotating measuring head, the head itself is allowed to rotate in space with an infinite variety of angles. It is thus possible to carry out tests both above and along the sides of the pieces to be tested, and also on each inclined point, in practice, with a three-dimensional system.
    In particular, the hardness tester is equipped with a slide provided with a stroke on which the rotating measuring head is mounted and with a first motor capable of activating the movement of the slide.
    In the present invention, the rotating head is moved so as to reach any point of the piece to be measured.
    In this way, the problem of having to move the pieces to be measured, often extremely heavy and bulky, remaining instead stationary, is solved.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to the technical field of loading test devices, relating to a test device for arbitrarily directional combined loading and a method for using the loading test device. The device includes a test bench base assembly and a loading assembly. The loading assembly is arranged above the test bench base assembly. The loading assembly includes a loading oil cylinder and a swing base. The swing base can rotate with respect to the loading base, such that a direction of the loading oil cylinder can be adjusted to meet requirements of different loading angles. The test bench base assembly includes a first chute, and the loading base is connected to the first chute via a sliding fastening bolt.

    摘要: Provided is an evaluation method that can easily evaluate the percentage of voids in a rubber material. The present disclosure relates to an evaluation method including evaluating the percentage of voids in a rubber material with a strain applied thereto based on the φvoid calculated from the following Equation (1) using the transmittance and thickness of the rubber material with no strain applied thereto and the transmittance and thickness of the rubber material with the strain applied thereto.
