Patent number: 8739640Abstract: A pull test apparatus includes a base, a tension meter and a linkage assembly. An object is adapted to be fixed at the base. The tension meter is movably disposed at the base and adapted to connect a handle of the object. The linkage assembly includes an elastic element and a positioning element. The elastic element is connected between the base and the tension meter. When the tension meter resists the elastic force of the elastic element to move to a first position, the positioning element positions the tension meter. When the positioning element releases the tension meter, the tension meter moves toward a second position by means of the elastic force of the elastic element so as to drive the handle closed at a main body of the object to be unfolded from the main body, wherein the first position is between the object and the second position.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2012Date of Patent: June 3, 2014Assignee: Wistron CorporationInventor: Zhao-Ping Fu

Publication number: 20130173197Abstract: In a dial indicator correcting method, a first command is sent to a single drive shaft for controlling a push rod to move toward dial indicators. The method records a first indicated value of each dial indicator when the push rod contacts with one of the dial indicators, and records a second indicated value of each dial indicator when the push rod has contacted all the dial indicators. The method further sends a second command to the single drive shaft for controlling the push rod to move when a distance of the push rod equals a measuring range, and records a third indicated value of each dial indicator when the push rod moves with each moving step. By subtracting the third indicated value from the second indicated value, a forth indicated value of each dial indicator is obtained and is corrected by a running deviation of the single drive shaft.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 2, 2012Publication date: July 4, 2013Inventors: KUEI-YANG LIN, BO-KAI FANG, CHENG-HE LIU, JIAN WANG, TAO-HONG HUANG, ZE-PING FU
