A new transducer was developed for in situ measurement of the force vector in a complex muscle. The transducer measures the magnitude, and the line of action of a force in a single plane. The dynamic range of the transducer is 0-5 N. This range includes the small forces developed by an active motor unit and the relatively large passive force of a whole muscle. In this study we present the details of the transducer design and specifications, and describe its application in the measurement of motor unit forces of the rabbit masseter muscle.
开发了一种新型换能器,用于原位测量复杂肌肉中的力矢量。该换能器可测量单个平面内的力的大小和作用线。换能器的动态范围为0-5 N。此范围包括活动运动单位产生的小力和整块肌肉相对较大的被动力。在本研究中,我们介绍了换能器的设计细节和规格,并描述了其在兔咬肌运动单位力测量中的应用。
