Frame transfer device for an optical strain gauge structure

摘要

An optical strain gauge, a transfer device for an optical strain gauge, and a test system are described. One instance of the disclosed transfer device includes a first and second gauge coupler that facilitate attachment to an optical strain gauge. The disclosed transfer device enables an optical strain gauge to be easily moved from one location to another; for example from a location of manufacture, testing, or calibration, to an object to be tested with the strain gauge or from one object to another object.

主权项

1. A transfer device configured to transfer a strain gauge, the transfer device comprising:
a first gauge coupler configured to interface with a first end of a strain gauge; a second gauge coupler configured to interface with a second end of the strain gauge; and an expander connectable between the first gauge coupler and second gauge coupler, the expander being configured to express an expansion force between the first and second gauge couplers.
