Description

[0002] As a traditional medical treatment, Chinese medicine is still widely used in the field of modern medicine. For the identification of Chinese medicine components, microscopic technology is usually required for inspection and analysis. Chloral hydrate permeabilization preparation is a commonly used microscopic preparation method, which is mainly used for microscopic identification of botanical materials. For chloral hydrate, a reagent with toxicity and pungent odor, in the prior art, the operator needs to manually add, mix and heat the reagent in a well-ventilated environment. Since chloral hydrate has a strong pungent odor, the operator may feel uncomfortable during the handling process, or even have health effects. At the same time, manual operation also increases the risk of reagent misoperation and sample contamination. In addition, the existing microscopic device has a high operational complexity during the identification of Chinese medicine components, and requires manual intervention in multiple steps for sample processing and observation. For example, the existing microscopic device usually requires manual preparation of the Chinese medicine sample, placement on the stage, and observation of the sample by adjusting the focus of the microscope. In addition, the pretreatment process of the Chinese medicine sample (such as crushing, mixing, etc.) also requires manual operation, which not only consumes time and human resources, but also may lead to operational errors and sample contamination.

At the same time, errors may occur during the manual processing, affecting the reliability and accuracy of the sample. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a traditional Chinese medicine ingredient identification microscope device that can realize automated operation, simplify the operation process, and improve identification efficiency and accuracy.

At the same time, the exhaust pipe 9 is connected to the traditional Chinese medicine processing mechanism 3 to effectively discharge toxic and irritating odors and improve operational safety. Through the mutual cooperation of these structures, the automation of the traditional Chinese medicine ingredient identification process is realized, the operating process is simplified, the identification efficiency and accuracy are improved, and the risk of misoperation and sample contamination is reduced.

[0040] See also Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, in some examples, further, the microscope mechanism 2 includes: a coarse focusing screw adjustment mechanism 21, a movable bracket 22, a display 23, a lens barrel 24 and an eyepiece assembly 25; the coarse focusing screw adjustment mechanism 21 is arranged on the top side of the base 1, and a retractable movable bracket 22 is provided on the coarse focusing screw adjustment mechanism 21; the display 23 is fixedly arranged on the front side of the movable bracket 22, and a lens barrel 24 is also provided below the display 23, and a rotatable eyepiece assembly 25 is provided at the bottom end of the lens barrel 24, and the position of the lens barrel 24 corresponds to that of the lighting mechanism 5.

[0041] It can be understood that the microscope 2 includes a coarse focusing screw adjustment mechanism 21, a movable bracket 22, a display 23, a lens barrel 24 and an eyepiece assembly 25. These structures together realize high-definition observation of traditional Chinese medicine samples. The coarse focusing screw adjustment mechanism 21 is located on the top side of the base 1, through which the focal length can be quickly adjusted; the movable bracket 22 is connected to the coarse focusing screw adjustment mechanism 21. The scalability makes the microscope 2 more flexible. The display 23 is fixed on the front side of the movable bracket 22, which is convenient for the user to directly observe the magnified sample image.

A rotatable eyepiece assembly 25 is provided at the bottom of the lens barrel 24 to facilitate switching between different magnifications for observation. The entire microscope 2 realizes clear and efficient observation of samples during the identification of traditional Chinese medicine ingredients through the synergistic effect of various parts, thereby improving the accuracy and convenience of identification.

[0042] See also Figure 3-Figure 6 As shown, in some examples, further, the Chinese medicine processing mechanism 3 includes: a box 31, a partition 32, an impurity filter 33, a gas purification component 34, a negative pressure vacuum pump 35, a crushing component 36, a mixing tank 37, a chloral hydrate addition component 38 and a sample arrangement seat 39, the box 31 is fixedly arranged on the top of the base 1 away from the side of the microscope 2, the box 31 is in a cavity state, and an exhaust pipe 9 is provided on the outer wall of the box 31; the partition 32 is fixedly arranged in the inner cavity of the box 31, and divides the box 31 into a material processing chamber and a gas purification chamber; the impurity filter 33 is fixedly arranged in the gas purification chamber, and the impurity filter 33 is close to the exhaust A gas purification component 34 is also provided on one side of the tube 9; a negative pressure vacuum pump 35 is fixedly mounted on the top end face of the box body 31 and is connected to the exhaust pipe 9; a crushing component 36 is fixedly mounted on the top end face of the box body 31 of the material processing chamber, and a mixing tank 37 is fixedly mounted at the bottom end of the material processing chamber away from one end of the crushing component 36; a magnetic stirrer is provided in the mixing tank 37, and a chloral hydrate adding component 38 is fixedly mounted on the top end face of the box body 31 and is located directly above the mixing tank 37; a sample arrangement seat 39 is fixedly mounted on one side of the box body 31 close to the sample transfer mechanism 4, and a sample supply port is provided in the sample arrangement seat 39, and the sample supply port is located directly above the sample transfer mechanism 4.

[0043] It can be understood that the Chinese medicine processing mechanism 3 is composed of multiple components to achieve sample pretreatment and gas purification. The box 31 is located at the top of the base 1, and the interior is divided into a material processing chamber and a gas purification chamber; the crushing component 36 is located at the top of the material processing chamber to crush the Chinese medicine sample for easy observation and material input. The mixing tank 37 is located at the bottom of the material processing chamber for sample mixing. The chloral hydrate adding component 38 is located just above the mixing tank 37, and chloral hydrate can be added to the mixing tank 37. The sample arrangement seat 39 is close to one side of the sample transfer mechanism 4 and is equipped with a sample supply port for easy input of the processed sample. It is sent to the sample transfer mechanism 4 and moved to the microscope mechanism 2 for observation through the sample transfer mechanism 4. An impurity filter 33 and a gas purification component 34 are provided in the gas purification chamber, which are responsible for removing the toxic or irritating gases generated. The negative pressure vacuum pump 35 is connected to the exhaust pipe 9, thereby maintaining a negative pressure environment in the box 31, driving the air flow, improving operational safety and preventing the diffusion of harmful gases generated by chloral hydrate. Therefore, through the coordinated work of the various components of the entire traditional Chinese medicine processing mechanism 3, manual operation errors are reduced, and the sample processing efficiency and safety are improved, thereby effectively improving the accuracy and convenience of traditional Chinese medicine ingredient identification.

[0044] See also Figure 5-Figure 6 As shown, in some examples, further, a sampling tube 11 is provided in the material processing chamber in the box body 31, and both ends of the sampling tube 11 are respectively connected to the bottom end of the inner cavity of the mixing tank 37 and the sample supply port of the sample arrangement seat 39, and a sampling pump 10 is provided in the middle of the sampling tube 11, and the sampling pump 10 is connected to the sampling tube 11.

[0045] In this example, the sampling tube 11 is located in the material processing chamber, connecting the bottom end of the mixing tank 37 and the sample supply port of the sample arrangement seat 39. Its main function is to realize the transfer of samples from the mixing tank 37 to the sample arrangement seat 39 during operation. The sampling pump 10 is connected to the sampling tube 11 and is responsible for controlling the flow of samples in the sampling tube 11. In the pretreatment stage, the sample after crushing, mixing and other steps is sent to the mixing tank 37; then the sampling pump 10 is used to drive the sample to move along the sampling tube 11, and finally the sample is transferred to the sample supply port of the sample arrangement seat 39. At this time, the sample transfer mechanism 4 can easily take the sample out of the sample supply port and move it to the microscope mechanism 2 for observation. The entire structure simplifies the process of sample processing and transfer, improves the efficiency of identification of traditional Chinese medicine components, and reduces the risk of manual operation errors and sample contamination through automated operation.

[0046] See also Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, in some examples, further, the gas purification component 34 includes: a filter box 341, the filter box 341 is fixedly placed in the gas purification chamber, and the filter box 341 includes a molecular sieve layer 342 and an activated carbon layer 353.

[0047] It can be understood that the main function of the gas purification component 34 is to remove toxic or irritating gases generated during the treatment process to ensure operational safety. It includes a filter box 341 with a built-in molecular sieve layer 342 and an activated carbon layer 353. When the gas enters the gas purification chamber, it first passes through the molecular sieve layer 342. The molecular sieve can adsorb toxic or irritating molecules of a specific size and capture them from the gas. Then the gas continues to flow through the activated carbon layer 353. The activated carbon has a large surface area and strong adsorption capacity, which can adsorb and remove the remaining toxic or irritating substances. The gas after filtering through these two layers is purified and then discharged through the exhaust pipe 9. The operation of the entire gas purification component 34 effectively reduces the risk of toxic or irritating gases during the treatment process, improves operational safety, and makes the Chinese medicine ingredient identification process safer and more reliable.

[0048] See also Figure 3 As shown, in some examples, further, an air pressure balance channel 15 is provided on the partition 32. When the exhaust pipe 9 is in a negative pressure state, the gas generated in the experiment passes through the air pressure balance channel 15 and penetrates the impurity filter 33, the molecular sieve layer 342 and the activated carbon layer 353 step by step.

[0049] It can be understood that the air pressure balance channel 15 is arranged on the partition 32, and its function is to maintain the air pressure balance between the material processing chamber and the gas purification chamber. When the exhaust pipe 9 is in a negative pressure state, the gas generated by the experiment will enter the gas purification chamber through the air pressure balance channel 15. The gas passes through the impurity filter 33, the molecular sieve layer 342 and the activated carbon layer 353 in turn to achieve step-by-step filtration and purification. The impurity filter 33 intercepts larger particulate impurities; the molecular sieve layer 342 adsorbs toxic or irritating molecules of a specific size; the activated carbon layer 353 removes the remaining toxic or irritating substances. The setting of the air pressure balance channel 15 enables the gas to effectively flow from the material processing chamber to the gas purification chamber, thereby improving operational safety, optimizing the gas flow path and enhancing the gas purification effect.

[0050] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in some examples, further, the sample moving mechanism 4 includes: a conveying motor 41, the conveying motor 41 is fixedly arranged in the middle of the top of the base 1, and a horizontal conveying tray 42 is also provided at the top of the conveying motor 41, and slide grooves are provided at both ends of the conveying tray 42, and a heating area and a slide hole are provided in the slide groove, and a heating component 43 is provided in the heating area.

[0051] It can be understood that the sample transfer mechanism 4 is mainly responsible for transferring the stirred mixture to a glass slide for experimental operation. The conveying motor 41 is fixed in the middle of the top of the base 1. A horizontal conveying tray 42 is provided at the top. The conveying tray 42 has glass slide grooves at both ends, which contain a heating area and a glass slide hole. The heating area is equipped with a heating device for adjusting the temperature. The mixture can achieve precise temperature control during the transfer process, which improves the stability and reliability of the experimental operation, simplifies the operation process, and improves work efficiency.

[0052] It should be noted that mixing chloral hydrate with Chinese medicine powder to prepare a sample for microscopic observation and heating it can help improve the observation effect of the Chinese medicine powder. Compared with other solvents, chloral hydrate can better highlight the characteristic structure of the Chinese medicine powder. Chloral hydrate has a certain bactericidal and disinfecting effect. During the microscopic observation process, it can inhibit or kill possible microorganisms, thereby improving the accuracy of the experimental results. The mixed sample is not prone to deterioration, degradation or reaction during the microscopic observation process, which is conducive to obtaining stable and reliable experimental data.

[0053] See also Figure 3 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some examples, further, the crushing component 36 includes: a crushing container 361, the crushing container 361 is fixedly arranged on the top end face of the box body 31, and the bottom end of the crushing container 361 is provided with a crushing motor 362. The crushing shaft in the crushing motor 362 extends to the bottom end of the inner cavity of the crushing container 361, and the bottom end of the crushing container 361 is also connected to one end of the guide tube 12 for guiding the crushed medicine powder into the stirring tank, and the other end of the guide tube 12 is provided with a first solenoid valve 13.

[0054] It is understood that the core part of the pulverizing assembly 36 is the pulverizing container 361, which is located at the top of the box body 31 and fixed on the end face. A pulverizing motor 362 is installed in the pulverizing container 361, which drives the pulverizing shaft to pulverize the Chinese medicine sample. The pulverized Chinese medicine powder is transported to the stirring tank through the guide tube 12 connected at the bottom. The operation of the entire pulverizing assembly 36 achieves efficient pulverization and transmission of Chinese medicine samples, improves pretreatment efficiency, reduces manual operation errors and sample contamination risks, and helps to improve the accuracy and convenience of Chinese medicine ingredient identification.

[0055] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in some examples, further, a second solenoid valve 14 is provided on the outer wall of the box body 31 at one end of the material processing chamber, and both the first solenoid valve 13 and the second solenoid valve 14 are connected to the control panel 8.

[0056] It should be noted that the second solenoid valve 14 is located on the outer wall of the box 31 at one end of the material processing chamber, and is connected to the control panel 8 together with the first solenoid valve 13. The negative pressure vacuum pump 35 plays a key role in this system, and is used to guide and control the transportation of gas and materials. During the gas purification process, the second solenoid valve 14 is opened and the first solenoid valve 13 is closed, so that the effective flow of air can be achieved and the gas purification effect can be ensured. When the material in the crushing component 36 needs to be transported to the mixing tank 37, the second solenoid valve 14 is closed and the first solenoid valve 13 is opened. The crushed medicinal powder is guided to the mixing tank 37 with the help of the negative pressure generated by the negative pressure vacuum pump 35. The entire structure uses two solenoid valves and the negative pressure vacuum pump 35 to cooperate with each other to achieve smooth switching between gas purification and material transportation, improve operational efficiency and reduce the risk of misoperation, while ensuring the safety and accuracy of the processing process.
