Slip plate assembly for vibration testing through temperature extreme thermal cycling

摘要

A slip plate assembly is provided for shaker-head generated vibration testing of a test piece being exposed to thermal cycling between preselected test temperature extremes in a closed environment. The assembly comprises a pair of opposed plate elements, a first plate element being beyond the closed environment and a second plate element exposed to test temperatures within the closed environment. Pin means is provided defining a singular locus of vibration transmitting connection between the first plate and the second plate in dimensionally temperature- responsive relation.
