Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of biological sample slicing equipment, and particularly to a vibration slicing device with a correctable blade type for large-volume biological samples. Background Art
[0002] In the field of modern biomedicine, due to the inherent structural characteristics of biological tissues, it is often necessary to cut the tissues into thin slices with a uniform thickness ranging from several micrometers to dozens of micrometers during research. Then, through steps such as optical clearing, staining, and imaging, research results can be obtained according to different requirements. Slicing is essential throughout this entire process. Currently, there are different forms of slicing techniques. Among them, vibration slicing is particularly suitable for slicing embedded soft tissues, which can preserve more properties of biological samples and facilitate the acquisition of more biological information. Vibration slicing mainly utilizes the mechanism of driving a blade to reciprocate to achieve the fracture of soft tissues. If combined with a high-precision displacement platform, continuous slicing of biological tissues with a uniform thickness ranging from dozens to hundreds of micrometers can be achieved. According to the implementation form of vibration, vibration slicing can be divided into different types, but their purpose is to reduce parasitic motion, improve the slicing quality, and thereby improve the continuity and integrity of the acquired data.
[0003] There are several types of vibration slicing devices according to the vibration form. A slicing machine described in Chinese Patent CN101500767 uses an eccentric wheel combined with a guide rail structure to achieve reciprocating vibration. By changing the motor speed, frequency conversion operation can be achieved. Therefore, it is not applicable to high-frequency vibration, and at the same time, it does not limit the parasitic motion of the cutting edge, and is only suitable for small-volume samples and low-frequency slicing; U.S. Patent US6651538 describes a vibration slicing device driven by electromagnetic force and towed by a spring to achieve reciprocating motion. Similarly, it does not limit the parasitic motion. The phenomenon that the parasitic motion in the middle of the clamped blade is small and the parasitic motion at both ends is large will occur along the vibration direction; Chinese Patent CN104729874 describes a vibration slicing machine driven by a variable electromagnetic force, which uses a double leaf spring flexible mechanism to limit the parasitic motion, and at the same time, the tool inclination adjustment is achieved through a fine-tuning nut. However, the vibration frequency is limited, and the change of the blade type is not considered. Since it uses a leaf spring flexible mechanism with one end fixed and the other end vibrating, the parasitic motion at both ends of the tool is large and it is not suitable for slicing large-volume samples; Chinese Patent CN111504685 describes a vibration slicing device that uses a voice coil motor to drive, a flexible mechanism to restrain and correct the change of parasitic motion. Among them, the use of a double parallelogram mechanism will cause the parasitic motion at both ends of the tool to be too large. At the same time, it has high requirements for processing accuracy. If the centroid of the vibrating part is not in the vibration direction, the parasitic motion will be increased, and the influence of the change of the blade type on the flatness of the slicing surface is not considered. Generally speaking, the existing vibration slicing devices have different degrees of problems in terms of vibration frequency, parasitic motion control, applicable sample volume, consideration of blade type change, and processing accuracy. Summary of the Invention

[0029] Embodiment
[0030] As Figures 1 to 6 shown, a vibration sectioning device with a modifiable blade shape for large-volume biological samples proposed by the present invention includes a vibration sectioning device body for cutting a sample 19, a driving mechanism, a transmission mechanism, and a cutting mechanism provided on the vibration sectioning device body. The cutting mechanism adjusts the sectioning state by adjusting a blade 6. This device operates in cooperation with the driving, transmission, and cutting mechanisms. The voice coil motor 12, fixing member 14, and restraint member 16 in the driving mechanism work by adjusting the relative position between the internal coil 1202 and the external cylindrical magnet 1201. The transmission mechanism includes, for example, the first and second outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanisms, etc. Using a multi-layer leaf spring structure, especially the stepped leaf spring, one end is fixed and the other end vibrates, balancing and adjusting the natural frequency and amplitude, overcoming the unstable output of the voice coil motor, stabilizing the parasitic movement of the blade, and reducing the influence of the blade size on the sectioning quality. The cutting mechanism includes a tool holder 2, a blade clamping mechanism 4, and a blade 6. The clamping pieces 5 of the blade clamping mechanism are evenly distributed. By using the fine-tuning bolts 18 to correct the deformation of the blade 6, the specified area is corrected in blocks, restricting the influence of the mismatch between the blade shape and the vibration direction and the change of the blade shape on the sectioning flatness, and finally constructing a stable device suitable for vibration sectioning of large-volume biological samples.
[0031] In addition, as Figures 1 to 6 shown, the driving mechanism includes a voice coil motor 12, a fixing member 14, and a restraint member 16; the transmission mechanism includes a first outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanism 11, a second outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanism 1, a pair of middle leaf spring flexible mechanisms 9, a middle-inner leaf spring connection block 17, a pair of inner leaf spring flexible mechanisms 10, a fixing bracket 15 of the leaf spring, and a vibration terminal 13; the cutting mechanism includes a tool holder 2, a blade clamping mechanism 4, and a blade 6 connected to the vibration terminal 13. The blade clamping mechanism 4 includes evenly distributed clamping pieces 5. Fine-tuning bolts 18 that can be tightened or loosened at corresponding positions are provided at the convex or concave positions of the blade 6. The voice coil motor 12 on the driving mechanism changes its working state by adjusting the relative position between the internal coil 1202 and the external cylindrical magnet 1201.
[0032] Among them, as Figures 1 to 2As shown, the fixing member 14 is connected to the threaded hole on the fixing bracket 15 by bolts. The diameter of the waist-shaped slot of the fixing member 14 is 1 mm larger than the diameter of the bolts. The voice coil motor 12 realizes reciprocating motion with the assistance of the external cylindrical magnet 1201. The waist-shaped slot of the fixing member 14 is used to adjust the distance between the internal coil 1202 and the external cylindrical magnet 1201 by manually moving the fixing member 14. Moreover, the internal coil 1202 and the restraint member 16 are connected by bolts to jointly drive the vibration terminal 13 to vibrate.
[0033] Secondly, as Figure 1 shown, one end of the first outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanism 11 is connected to the fixing bracket 15 of the leaf spring. One end of the second outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanism 1 is connected to the vibration terminal 13. One end of the middle leaf spring flexible mechanism 9 is connected to the vibration terminal 13, and the other end is connected to the middle inner leaf spring connection block 17. The other end of the middle inner leaf spring connection block 17 is connected to the inner leaf spring flexible mechanism 10. The other end of the inner leaf spring flexible mechanism 10 is connected to the fixing bracket 15 of the leaf spring. A pair of square holes 7 are provided on the vibration terminal 13.
[0034] Furthermore, as Figures 1 to 2 shown, the vibration terminal 13 drives the blade clamping mechanism 4 and the blade 6 to realize reciprocating linear motion through the tool holder 2. The tool holder 2 is connected to the vibration terminal 13 through the threaded hole 8. The blade clamping mechanism 4 is connected to the tool holder 2 through the thread pair 3. Moreover, the thread pair 3 on the tool holder 2 is set as a triangular structure. The thread pair 3 is a connection pair composed of a mutually matching internal thread and external thread. The structural composition is that the external thread is usually located on the surface of a cylinder or a cone and has raised spiral lines; the internal thread is processed on the inner wall of parts such as holes or sleeves and is in the shape of a concave spiral groove. The parameters such as the tooth profile, pitch, and thread angle of the two need to match each other to achieve a tight fit. Its working principle is to rotate the external thread to make it screw with the internal thread, and use the frictional force and mechanical bite generated by the helix angle of the thread to realize the connection, fastening, or transmission function between parts. During the rotation process, the thread pair 3 can convert the rotational motion into a linear motion, or vice versa.
[0035] In addition, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5 shown, there is a gasket for adjusting the rotation angle of the blade 6 between the vibration terminal 13 and the tool holder 2. The rotation angle of the blade 6 is adjusted by the gasket at the contact surface position between the tool holder 2 and the blade clamping mechanism 4.
[0036] Still further, as Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the first outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanism 11 and the second outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanism 1 of the transmission mechanism are used to balance the vibration frequency and amplitude of the transmission mechanism. The middle leaf spring flexible mechanism 9, the middle inner leaf spring connecting block 17, the inner leaf spring flexible mechanism 10, the first outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanism 11, and the second outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanism 1 are used to control the linear reciprocating motion of the vibrating terminal 13.
[0037] In this embodiment, first, the fixing member 14 is connected to the threaded hole on the fixing bracket 15 through bolts. Since the diameter of the waist-shaped groove of the fixing member 14 is 1 mm larger than the diameter of the bolt, the fixing member 14 can be manually moved to adjust the distance between the inner coil 1202 and the outer cylindrical magnet 1201. The voice coil motor 12 works with the assistance of the outer cylindrical magnet 1201. When the relative positions of the inner coil 1202 and the outer cylindrical magnet 1201 are adjusted, the inner coil 1202 of the voice coil motor 12 can achieve reciprocating motion under the magnetic field of the outer cylindrical magnet 1201. At the same time, the inner coil 1202 and the restraint member 16 are connected by bolts to jointly drive the vibrating terminal 13 to vibrate.
[0038] When the transmission mechanism is used, one end of the first outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanism 11 is connected to the fixing bracket 15 of the leaf spring, and one end of the second outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanism 1 is connected to the vibrating terminal 13. When the voice coil motor 12 drives the vibrating terminal 13 to vibrate, the first outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanism 11 and the second outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanism 1 play a role in balancing the vibration frequency and amplitude of the transmission mechanism. One end of the middle leaf spring flexible mechanism 9 is connected to the vibrating terminal 13, and the other end is connected to the middle inner leaf spring connecting block 17. The other end of the middle inner leaf spring connecting block 17 is connected to the inner leaf spring flexible mechanism 10, and the other end of the inner leaf spring flexible mechanism 10 is connected to the fixing bracket 15 of the leaf spring. The middle leaf spring flexible mechanism 9, the middle inner leaf spring connecting block 17, the inner leaf spring flexible mechanism 10 work together with the first outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanism 11 and the second outer stepped leaf spring flexible mechanism 1 to precisely control the vibrating terminal 13 to perform linear reciprocating motion. A pair of square holes 7 on the vibrating terminal 13 contribute to its stability and adaptability during the movement process.
[0039] When the cutting mechanism needs to be used, the vibrating terminal 13 drives the blade clamping mechanism 4 and the blade 6 to perform reciprocating linear motion through the tool holder 2. The tool holder 2 is connected to the vibrating terminal 13 through the threaded hole 8 to ensure the stability of the connection. The blade clamping mechanism 4 is connected to the tool holder 2 through the thread pair 3, and the thread pair 3 of the tool holder 2 is set as a triangular structure, which can enhance the reliability of the connection. When it is necessary to adjust the rotation angle of the blade 6, gaskets can be placed between the vibrating terminal 13 and the tool holder 2 and at the contact surface position between the tool holder 2 and the blade clamping mechanism 4, so as to realize the adjustment of the rotation angle of the blade 6. The blade clamping mechanism 4 includes evenly distributed clamping pieces 5 for firmly clamping the blade 6. If the blade 6 bulges upward or downward, it can be corrected by the corresponding fine adjustment bolt 18. During the cutting process, the sectioning parameters can also be adjusted by adjusting parameters such as the position and angle of the blade 6 to meet different sectioning requirements for large-volume biological samples.
