Next, another embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS. The difference from the above-mentioned embodiment is that a leaf spring is used to transmit the load between the column 7 and the load point 5. FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a main part, and FIG. 4 is a sectional view thereof. In FIGS. 3 and 4, reference numeral 13 denotes a wide leaf spring, which has a load point 5 at the center.
Supported by. 14 is a leaf spring holder, which applies the load from the column 7 to the peripheral portion of the wide leaf spring 13,
The leaf spring 13 is deformed to be convex upward. Reference numeral 15 is a leg of the leaf spring holder, which penetrates a hole provided in the support portion 8. Reference numeral 16 indicates a protrusion of the leaf spring holder.

With the above configuration, when an impact load is applied to the load table 6, by setting the strength of the wide leaf spring 13 to an appropriate size, the leaf spring 13 is largely bent and the leaf spring holder is held. Since the protruding portion 16 contacts the supporting portion 8, a load exceeding a certain limit is not applied to the load point 5. By selecting the strength of the wide leaf spring so that the protrusion 16 and the supporting portion 8 come into contact with each other at a static load of 5 kg or more, the above impact load characteristics were carried out for 5 units, but all were 100%.
It did not break below the number of times.
