[0051] Embodiment 3: Combining with Figure 1 , Attachment Figure 2 , Attachment Figure 3 and attached Figure 4 In addition to the contents of the above embodiments, the fixing module includes a clamping unit for adapting and clamping the high-strength cable for new energy vehicles and an angle adjustment unit for driving the clamping unit to rotate relative to the drum.

[0052] The clamping unit includes a tubular structure pipe fixed to the outer wall of the drum, a plurality of airbag balls sequentially arranged around the inner wall of the pipe, an inner channel arranged in the pipe wall of the pipe, a plurality of through holes respectively arranged on the inner wall of the pipe and respectively connected with each inner channel, a plurality of micro air pumps fixed to the inner wall of the drum, an air guide tube partially placed in the inner channel and one end of which passes through the through hole to be connected with the airbag ball and the other end of which passes through the pipe and the drum in sequence to be connected with the micro air pump, and a micro pressure sensor respectively laid on each airbag ball for monitoring the contact pressure between the airbag ball and the high-strength cable for new energy vehicles.
