| abstract |
The invention relates to a device which is intended for clamping a test piece (1, 1', 1") and comprises an upper clamping rail (BU) and a lower clamping rail (BL) for the horizontal clamping of an upper end and a lower end of the test piece (1, 1', 1"). It also comprises vertical left clamping edges (4L, 4L') and vertical right clamping edges (4R, 4R') for the lateral mounting of a right side and left side of the test piece (1, 1', 1"). Respectively arranged on the upper clamping rail (BU) and on the lower clamping rail (BL) is a segmented mounting, with in each case a number of pivotably movable bearing segments (26), which can be individually pivoted out of a clamping plane. The bearing segments (26) each have a bearing-segment chuck. The invention also relates to a method for clamping a test piece (1, 1', 1") and to a system for buckle testing. |
