Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate measurement of an elongation with a simple construction, by optically measuring an angle of turning of a reflector turning following an elongation of a sample. CONSTITUTION:The tip 2a of a fixed probe 2 fixed at one end of a holding member 1 is made to abut the surface of a sample S securely. A rotary probe 4 is supported with a rotary support shaft 3 provided at the other end of the member 1 and the tip 4a of the probe 4 is made to abut the surface of the sample S. Then, an angle of a reflector 5 and the position of a convex lens 6 are so set that light irradiates the reflector 5 provided integral with the probe 4 and the reflected light thereof focuses the center 7a of a focusing plate 7. Then, when the sample S is tensioned by a specified force, the probe 4 turns following the expansion of the sample S and with the turning of the reflector 5, a focusing position of the reflected light moves to a point P. Thus, an angle thetaof turning of the reflector 5 is determined from the detection of a moving distance (h) thereof, thereby enabling calculation of an elongation DELTAL of the sample S by a specified formula.
