  • Tensile strength tester for hair
    Patent number: 4628742
    Abstract: Apparatus for measuring tensile strength of hair samples in which the test is controlled automatically to provide the average value of a plurality of hair samples. The apparatus is digitally controlled to provide a rapid testing cycle time. Tension is applied by a pivoted arm, and rotated by a solenoid that is controlled digitally to provide substantially constant velocity to the arm. A strain gage secured to the arm measures the force extended by the arm in tensioning the hair sample.

  • Strain gage load cell
    Patent number: 4148219
    Abstract: A column type bonded strain gage load cell having improved linearity and output is achieved using a column having a pair of opposed transverse bores which create a web therebetween. The web has a relatively high strain as compared to the circumferential strain of an unbored column. Strain gages bonded to the web, in combination with strain gages bonded at selected regions on the column provide improved linearity and increased output.
