Device and method for measuring snap member detaching force, and snap chuck
First Claim
1. A device which measures force to detach a snap member attached to cloth, the device comprising:
- a cloth holding device holding the cloth on the periphery of the snap member attached to the cloth;
a snap chucking device chucking the snap member from its side portion by a plurality of chucking portions;
a torque applying device applying torque to the snap member chucked by the snap chucking device, wherein the torque applying device is distinct from a tension device and the torque applying device is connected to the snap chucking device by one or more rods;
the tension device relatively pulling the snap member chucked by the snap chucking device and rotated by the torque applying device from the cloth held by the cloth holding device; and
a measuring device measuring tensile force provided by the tension device.

Abstract
A device and method for measuring snap member detaching force, the snap member detaching force measurement device includes a cloth holding unit for holding cloth on the periphery of the snap member attached to the cloth; a snap chucking unit for chucking the snap member from its side portion by a plurality of chucking portions of the unit; a torque gauge for applying torque to the snap member chucked by the chucking portions; a tension unit for relatively pulling the snap member from the cloth; and a tensile force gauge for measuring tensile force provided by the tension unit. The snap chucking unit includes turning arms which can lock, with constant chucking force, the state of the snap member chucked by the chucking portions.
