Impact testing machine
An impact testing machine is configured. The impact testing machine includes: a testing machine body that applies a load having a prescribed speed to a test piece and conducts a test; a controller that controls the testing machine body; a video camera that photographs the test piece; and a pulse generator. The controller includes: a detection signal capturing unit that captures a detection signal of the load in a prescribed measurement sampling period; and a synchronizing signal output unit that outputs a sampling synchronizing signal that is synchronized with the measurement sampling period. The pulse generator includes: a photographing instruction signal generator that generates a photographing instruction signal by multiplying or dividing the sampling synchronizing signal, and outputs the photographing instruction signal to the video camera. The photographing instruction signal issues a photographing instruction to the video camera.
1. An impact testing machine comprising:
a testing machine body that applies a load having a prescribed speed to a test piece and conducts a test;
a controller that controls the testing machine body;
a video camera that photographs the test piece; and
a pulse generator, wherein
the controller includes:
a detection signal capturing unit that captures a detection signal of the load in a measurement sampling period that has been prescribed; and
a synchronizing signal output unit that outputs a sampling synchronizing signal that is synchronized with the measurement sampling period, and
the pulse generator includes:
a photographing instruction signal generator that generates a photographing instruction signal by multiplying or dividing the sampling synchronizing signal, and outputs the photographing instruction signal to the video camera, the photographing instruction signal issuing a photographing instruction to the video camera.
2. The impact testing machine according to claim 1 , wherein
the video camera generates one captured image in synchronization with the photographing instruction signal, every time the photographing instruction signal is input.
3. The impact testing machine according to claim 1 , wherein
the video camera includes an ultrahigh-speed camera that generates a plurality of captured images in one photographing operation at a photographing speed of one million frames/sec or more, and
the video camera performs the one photographing operation in synchronization with an input of the photographing instruction signal, and generates the plurality of captured images.
4. The impact testing machine according to claim 1 , wherein
setting of the measurement sampling period according to a speed of the load is enabled.
