Abstract
A nipple testing apparatus for testing the nipple end of condoms mounted onto a mandrel, the apparatus having an electrically conducted nipple-shaped cavity connected in electrical circuit to the mandrel, such that electrical current passing through the condom disposed between the mandrel and the nipple cavity indicates a defect in the condom.
Claims17
A condom nipple testing apparatus for testing the nipple end of a condom for defects, said apparatus comprising:
- an electrically conductive mandrel having a nipple-shaped end and adapted to receive a condom thereon for testing;
- an electrically conductive insert member having a nipple-shaped cavity corresponding to said nipple-shaped end of said mandrel, said insert member and said mandrel being connected in electrical circuit;
- and
- electrical circuit testing means for detecting the passage of electrical current between said mandrel and said insert member.
A condom nipple testing apparatus for detecting defects in the nipple ends of condoms mounted onto electrically conductive mandrels having nipple-shaped ends, said apparatus comprising:
- plural electrically conductive mandrels having nipple-shaped ends and each adapted to receive a condom thereon for testing;
- a first electrically conductive nipple cavity and a second electrically conductive nipple cavity mounted onto a pair of parallel rotating shafts, each said nipple cavity corresponding in shape to said nipple-shaped ends of said mandrels, said first and second nipple cavities and said mandrels being connected in electrical circuit;
- and
- electrical circuit testing means for detecting the passage of electrical current between said mandrels and said first and second nipple cavities.
A condom nipple testing apparatus for detecting defects in the nipple ends of condoms mounted onto electrically conductive mandrels having a nipple-shaped end, said apparatus comprising:
- a first electrically conductive nipple-shaped cavity adapted to receive the nipple end of a condom mounted onto an electrically conductive mandrel;
- a second electrically conductive nipple-shaped cavity adapted to receive the nipple end of a condom mounted onto an electrically conductive mandrel;
- a first electrically conductive mandrel and a second electrically conductive mandrel, each having a nipple-shaped end and adapted to receive a condom thereon, wherein said first mandrel is connected in electrical circuit to said first nipple-shaped cavity and said second mandrel is connected in electrical circuit to said second nipple-shaped cavity;
- electrical circuit testing means for detecting the passage of electrical current between said first mandrel and said first nipple cavity and between said second mandrel and said second nipple cavity.
