Abstract
1481698 Measuring hardness KRAUTKRAMER GmbH 24 Oct 1974 [15 Nov 1973] 17846/74 Heading G1G A contact impedance method of measuring physical properties of materials e.g. modulus of elasticity, Poisson’s Ratio and hardness using an ultrasonic transducer excitable at its resonant frequency is described. Magnetostrictive transducer 1 is energized by an exciter circuit 2 which, by means of coils 3, 4, causes the transducer to vibrate at its resonant frequency. A mechanical switch 6 determines whether or not the transducer indenting tip 5, of e.g. diamond, is in contact with specimen 9. Control unit 8 receives a signal 7 indicating whether the former or latter condition obtains. When transducer 1 is not in contact with the specimen 9, up/down counter 11 is gated by variable gater 13 to measure the transducer frequency. The count at the end of the gate signal is proportional to the frequency. A scale adjustment is provided by unit 14. Control unit 8 controls; by signal 15, the gate signal repitition frequency; by signal 16 the counting direction of up/down counter 11; signal 17, erasure of the counter contents; signals 18, 21, the data flow between counter 11 and store 19. At the end of each count store 19 stores the counter 11 output. Before the hardness measurement, counter 11 counts the frequency of the freely oscillating transducer, counting in the down direction, and repetitively, under the control of the gating signal, the measured value constantly up dating store 19. To perform the hardness measurement, the indenter 5 is brought into contact with specimen 9 by constant test load 27. Counter 11 is pre-set to the last zero measurement counted as stored in store 19 and counts upward at the new resonant frequency of transducer 1. The difference count remaining in counter 11 is used to address ROM 23 which provides a preprogrammed output signal to indicator 25, and may employ different hardness scales e.g. Rockwell or Vickers.
