Abstract

A device for measuring cavities has a main body, at least one first distance sensor mounted on the main body and rotatable about an axis of rotation for contactlessly measuring distances in a radial direction with respect to the axis of rotation, a holder for fixing the device within the cavity in a position in which the main body assumes an orientation in which the axis of rotation of the first distance sensor coincides substantially with a center axis of the cavity, and at least one second distance sensor, arranged on the main body, for contactlessly measuring distances in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation, the axis of rotation passing through a detection area of the second distance sensor.
