[0002] In the whole system of power operation, distribution cable is a very important component. It has a very important position and role in any level of distribution network. Whether the quality of distribution cable in the distribution system is up to standard will be directly related to whether the power transmission can ensure high quality and high stability. Therefore, special attention should be paid to safety, so it is necessary to carry out various tests on the cable. The test items mainly include electrical performance test, mechanical performance test, material performance test, aging and stability test, appearance inspection and structural dimension test, etc. Through the test, the potential faults and defects of the cable can be found in time to avoid power outage and communication interruption caused by cable failure. At present, the content of the structural dimension test of the cable mainly includes the thickness of insulation and sheath, the thinnest thickness, and the overall dimensions. In the prior art, the traditional slicing test method is often used to test the thickness of the cable sheath, that is, the cable is cut into segments, and the cable slices are enlarged by a projector to measure the thickness of the sheath. This detection method not only has inaccurate test results, but also needs to be tested for each cable slice, which makes the detection process more troublesome, the procedure is complicated, and it is not convenient to use.
[0003] In order to solve the problem that the traditional slicing detection method is relatively troublesome, an automatic thickness detection device for the distribution network cable to be inspected in the market adopts an ultrasonic thickness measurement method and has a certain market share.
[0004] After searching, the invention patent with publication number CN116858148B discloses a thickness monitoring device, an automatic production system and a thickness detection method. The thickness monitoring device includes a support and a detection mechanism. The support forms a cable station for cable routing. The detection mechanism is connected to the support and is arranged on the peripheral side of the cable station. The detection mechanism includes a moving component and a detection component. The moving component is connected to the detection component and is used to drive the detection component to move so as to adjust the position between the detection component and the cable. The detection component includes a thickness detection component, which is used to detect the outer thickness of the cable.
[0005] Based on the above search and in combination with the prior art, it is found that the existing cable sheath thickness detection equipment adopts ultrasonic detection. Although it solves the problem that the traditional slicing detection method is more troublesome, during the detection process, the detection device can only detect the sheath thickness at a certain position of the cable, and cannot form the function of detecting multiple positions of the cable sheath, making the detected data less representative.

[0025] 3. Using the above-mentioned displacement component, coupling agent spraying device, coupling agent coating component, nozzle and second distance sensor, the displacement component is used to drive the nozzle and coupling agent coating component to perform linear motion. When the pulley moves to the highest point of the track rod, the second distance sensor will move to the highest point of the track rod.

The coupling agent is sprayed on the surface of the cable sheath by the coupling agent spraying device and the nozzle, and the coupling agent is evenly coated on the surface of the cable sheath under the action of the coupling agent coating component.

[0055] In summary, the working principle of the present invention is as follows: when in use, the staff first cuts off the longer cable at one end, removes the cable core, and obtains the cable sheath; then, the two ends of the cable sheath are respectively inserted into the clamping frames 801 of the two centering clamping assemblies 8, and the position of the movable gear rack 802 is adjusted by the electric push rod 807, and the meshing action of the movable gear rack 802 and the transmission gear 803 drives the second bidirectional screw 806 to rotate, and changes the outer clamping seat 804 and the inner clamping seat 805 in the second bidirectional screw 806 and the first clamping groove 808. and the second clamping groove 810, thereby clamping and fixing the two ends of the cable sheath; then, the staff drives the first bidirectional screw 303 to rotate through the first motor 301 in the tensioning component 3, and adjusts the distance between the two first U-shaped movable plates 302 and the two centering clamping components 8, thereby tightening the cable sheath, making the cable sheath in a stable state, and also making the cable sheath in the center position of the thickness detection component 7 and the coupling agent application component 10; next, the user controls the displacement component 5 through the central console 6 The second motor 501 in the displacement assembly 5 drives the threaded rod 502 to rotate, drives the second U-shaped movable plate 504, the thickness detection assembly 7 and the coupling agent coating assembly 10 to perform linear motion, so that the pulley 705 slides on the track rod 9. When the pulley 705 moves to the highest point of the track rod 9, the second distance sensor 14 will also move to the highest point of the track rod 9. At this time, the shortest distance signal is transmitted to the central console 6 to control the coupling agent spraying device 4 and the coupling agent coating assembly 10 to work successively. The coupling agent spraying device 4 and the nozzle 15 are used to spray the coupling agent on the surface of the cable sheath, and the third motor 1006 in the coupling agent coating assembly 10 is controlled to work, driving the driving gear 1005, the second gear ring 1002, the elastic rod 1003 and the coating pad 1004 to rotate. The rotating coating pad 1004 is used to evenly coat the coupling agent on the surface of the cable sheath. As the displacement assembly 5 continues to work, the second distance sensor 14 will move away from the track rod 9. At this time, the coupling agent spraying device 4 and the coupling agent coating assembly 10 are controlled to shut down through the central console 6.When the pulley 705 moves to the lowest point of the track rod 9, the wavy track rod 9 squeezes the pulley 705 and the movable tooth seat 702 to move to one side of the annular frame 701, so that the meshing action of the movable tooth seat 702 and the tooth column 707 and the meshing action of the tooth column 707 and the first tooth ring 709 drive all the movable tooth seats 702 to contract, so that the ultrasonic sensor probe 704 is evenly surrounded and attached to the surface of the cable sheath, and at the same time, the first distance sensor 12 will move to the highest point of the track rod 9, and the shortest distance signal The signal is transmitted to the central console 6 to control the ultrasonic sensor probe 704 to work, so as to detect different positions of the cable sheath through ultrasonic waves in multiple directions. With the continuous operation of the displacement component 5 and the intermittent squeezing action of the track rod 9, the above process will be repeated many times, so that the ultrasonic sensor probe 704 in the thickness detection component 7 can be driven to continuously contract and release, so that the ultrasonic sensor probe 704 is attached to the surface of the cable sheath in an equidistant form, which is convenient for the thickness detection processing of the cable sheath at equidistant and different positions. ;
