A load introducing device includes a rectangular yoke having a pair of opposite flexible sides, a pair of opposite rigid sides connected to the flexible sides and a cantilever portion extending from one of the rigid sides parallel with the flexible sides. The cantilever portion includes a free end terminating adjacent the other of the rigid sides. A load introducing rod is fixed to extend perpendicularly from the cantilever portion. An optical displacement sensor is provided between the cantilever portion free end and the adjacent rigid side. A plurality of fitting holes are formed in the adjacent rigid side.

Load introducing device

A tensionmeter of the type that the tension of an elongated object is measured by the amount of displacement of a sensing roller, wherein errors caused by the bending stress of the elongated object as well as the weight of the detector including the sensing roller are substantially elimiated from the result of measurement.
