DEVICE FOR THE MEASUREMENT OF CONTENT FORCES EXERCISED BY AN ORTHESIS OF THE MEDIUM TYPE OR PANTY OF CONTAINMENT.

摘要

Device (10) for the non-destructive extensometric measurement of containment forces that can be exerted by the middle-type orthosis or containment panty, comprising: - a form (14) suitable for receiving an orthosis lined up, - sensors (40), suitable for measuring the force applied locally by the orthosis at the point of the respective sensor, characterized in that said shape comprises two elongated branches (16, 18) and the sensors are distributed over the length of at least one of the branches to measure the force applied locally by the orthosis according to a component perpendicular to the profile of the branch, and because it also comprises: - separating means (30, 32), which cooperate with opposite ends (26, 28) of the branches to move these transversely to their greatest dimension, and - control means of the separating means, suitable for moving the branches away in a movement of mutual, progressive and controlled separation.
