The detecting section of the crack measuring apparatus is covered with a cover 13. The operation of the crack measuring device according to the above embodiment will be described. First, the contact needles 1 a to 1 d are brought into contact with the subject 8. At the time of contact, the coil springs 2a to 2d contract as the contact needles 1a to 1d are pressed against the subject 8. Next, as shown in FIG. 5, a crack 9 is sandwiched between the contact needles 1b and 1c, and a direct current 10 is passed from the measuring device 6 between the contact needles 1a and 1d. Since the crack 9 acts as a resistance inside the subject 8 between the contact needles 1b and 1c, a potential difference corresponding to the crack depth d is generated between the contact needles 1b and 1c. This potential difference is detected by the measuring device 6, amplified and signal-processed. Then, the signal is output to the indicator 7 as a signal indicating the crack depth d, and is displayed on the indicator 7.

FIG. 6 shows the relationship between the voltage ratio and the distance a between the contact needles and the crack depth d in the crack measurement described above. FIG.
In the equation, V indicates a measured voltage, and V 0 indicates a voltage measured in advance in a sound portion where no crack 9 exists. Voltage ratio V
/ V 0 , and based on the V / V 0 value, d / a is obtained from the relational expression of FIG. 6 to estimate the depth d of the crack 9. In this way, the depth of the crack can be determined non-destructively. In the measurement by the present crack measuring device, the crack depth d and the distance a between the contact needles 51 have a close relationship, and when the thickness of the subject is t in the range of d / a <1, as shown in FIG. Regardless of the value of t / a, V / V 0 and d / a have a linear relationship. Therefore, it is necessary to measure within this range in order to accurately measure the crack depth.

b, the relationship of r c is, r a = 3r c, and has a r b = 2r c. When the major axis of the ellipse cross section of the support 11a~11c is positioned on one straight line respectively, becomes the distance all a 3 between the supports, it is kept equidistant. Here, when the knob 17 with the pointer is rotated, the pulley 15 and the grooved belt 16 are rotated in conjunction with the rotation thereof, and the support 11a is rotated.

As described above, according to the present invention, two arm members rotatably supported by the crack measuring device main body and rotatably mounted with the two contact needles are provided. Two contact needles attached to a position different from the rotation axis of the arm member and rotating together with the arm member to measure a voltage generated across a crack in the subject; and adjusting a rotation angle of the two arm members. Thus, the distance between the two contact needles is changed, so that the distance between the contact needles can be set freely. Therefore, the measurement corresponding to the depth of the crack can be performed with one detector, so that the working efficiency is improved and it is economical.
