Wykorzystanie techniki video w badaniach wytrzymalosciowych szkieletow kabin i ram ochronnych

The presented film shows the course of strength testing of the framework of a 05 Standard cabin, manufactured by FUM "Spomasz", Sokółka, Poland. The objective of this testing was to establish whether the cabin framework can be considered safe for the MF-255 tractor. Strength testing of the framework of a 05 Standard cabin, was recorded using a Panasonic type NV-M5 camera. This camera is not only capable of recording, but also has the capacity for fast forwarding and rewinding the picture on screen, freeze frame function, and the so called fast shutter, permitting better viewing of fast changing images. The Panasonic VCR type NV-N70EG allows viewing of images recorded with fast shutters with maximum clarity and focus. The Department plans to purchase an IBM AT personal computer with peripherals designed to enter video images into the computer’s memory for further processing. This technique will not only allow more precise analysis of cabin elastic strain in strength testing, but will also facilitate studies of the functionality of agricultural tractors and machinery operation, assessment of the operator’s visibility, etc.
