[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cable detection, and in particular to a device and method for accurately measuring the thickness of a cable without cutting. Background Art

[0002] Cable thickness and eccentricity are important parameters for measuring cable quality. Traditional cable thickness measurement methods mostly rely on laboratory measurements of cable slices, which are complex and cumbersome to operate, and cannot meet the needs of rapid on-site detection. Among the existing measuring devices, the technical solution with publication number CN113959298B proposes a cable thickness / eccentricity measurement method and device, which measures the thickness and eccentricity by fixing the cable slice on a pressure plate assembly and combining a turntable, a vernier caliper and an observation mechanism. Although this solution effectively improves the accuracy and scientificity of the measurement data, it still has the following shortcomings:

The outer walls of the three centering bolts 18 are threadedly connected to the middle of the lower ring seat 11, and the three centering bolts 18 are equipped with centering heads 19 at one end thereof.

[0045] Specifically, during the measurement process, in order to ensure that the position of the cable to be measured is fixed and the cross vertical line on the dial 13 is aligned with the cable point, the centering bolt 18 is rotated to push the centering head 19 toward the outer wall of the cable to be measured and fix it by clamping in three directions.
