The claimed technical solution relates to measuring equipment and can be used for measuring skin-folds of fat thickness in healthy and sick children and adults with different type of constitution in the assessment of their physical condition.The aim of the proposed technical solutions is to extend the functional capabilities of the device for measuring skin folds by simplifying the apparatus and improving its information content, precision and reliability.The basis of the utility model the task of improving the thickness gauge skin folds (caliper), wherein, due to the execution of the sliding member with an additional node finite jaws locked position relative to one another, performing it to supply the audio signal and the read visual information along with information about the thickness of the folds skin, performing the oval holes, with convenient placing them in all the fingers of one hand, the location of the bottom of the additional sliding member tion vernier scale provides a new technical effect.From the description of the device and its operation it can be seen that the claimed technical solution allows to perform measurements at given settings of pressure on the skin fold. The device can perform measurements with high precision and with a minimum number of measurements to obtain unambiguous, reliable results, which increases the functional possibilities of the meter.Заявляемое техническое решение относится к измерительной технике и может быть использовано для измерения толщины кожно-жировых складок у здоровых и больных, взрослых и детей с разным типом конституции в процессе оценки их физического состояния.Целью заявляемого технического решения является расширение функциональных возможностей устройства для измерения складки кожи путем упрощения устройства и повышения его информативности, точности и достоверности.В основу полезной модели поставлена задача усовершенствования измерителя толщины складки кожи (калипера), в котором, вследствие выполнения скользяще
