1. A measuring device (1) comprising
a body (2),
a vacuum chamber (3) in the body (2) in which a thermal contact resistance measurement is conducted,
a first sample (4) and a second sample (5) which are placed in the chamber (3) and are in contact with each other in such a way that heat transfer occurs,
a piston (6) which ensures a continuous contact to take place between the first sample (4) and the second sample (5) during a measurement,
a cooler (7) which is located under the first sample (4) and the second sample (5),
at least one damper (8), which is attached to the chamber (3), is located under the cooler (7), and enables to dampen a force applied by the piston (6) to provide the continuous contact between the first sample (4) and the second sample (5), and
an insulator (9) disposed between the cooler (7) and the damper (8), providing insulation for heat transfer conducted by the cooler (7),
wherein:
at least one plate (10) is placed between the damper (8) and the insulator (9) to prevent deformation of the insulator (9) by homogeneously distributing a force exerted by the damper (8) on the insulator (9),
at least one gap (11) is provided on the insulator (9) and of which the location is determined by a user, and
the at least one plate (10) is placed in the gap (11) to homogeneously distribute the force exerted by the damper (8) on the insulator (9).
