Let \(\phi\) be an \((n-1)\)-dimensional convex surface in an \(n\)-dimensional Euclidean space \(\mathbb{R}^n\). Let \(H\) be a set of closed surfaces \(\phi\) for each of which the Gaussian curvature is bounded from below by unity at every point. Denote by \(V(\phi)\) the convex hull of \(\phi\). Let \(B^k\) \((k = 1,2,\dots,n)\) be a \(k\)-dimensional closed ball in \(\mathbb{R}^n\). Denote \(d(B^k) = \max_{x \in B^k, y \in B^k} \rho(x,y)\); \(d^n_k(\phi) = \sup_{B^k \subset V(\varphi)} d(B^k)\). The author proves that \(h^n_k = +\infty\) if \(2k < n-1\) and \(2\leq h^n_k \leq 4\) if \(n - 1 \leq 2k \leq 2n\).
