Bending strain measurement apparatus for an abdomen of an anthropomorphic dummy and abdominal injury presumption apparatus using the same

摘要

A bending strain measurement apparatus for an abdomen of an anthropomorphic dummy comprises a band (2) constituted of an elastic thin plate member, arranged in a longitudinal direction of the abdomen (10), having one end thereof fixed in the vicinity of the abdomen of the dummy and a plurality of gauges arranged in a longitudinal direction of the band for detecting a bending strain of the abdomen (10) when an obstacle collides with the abdomen, and a measuring device (4) for measuring time history of the bending strain based on bending strain of the respective portions of the band detected by the gauges arranged on the band, as a time transition of the bending strain of respective portions of the band.
