Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pathological specimen management, and in particular, to an automatic pathological archive management system. BACKGROUND

[0002] In medical diagnosis, doctors need to observe the morphology and structure of cells under a microscope to help the doctors determine the nature of the disease. Pathological slides can be used to carry transparent glass sheets of human tissue or cell samples to facilitate observation by doctors.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0033] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more obvious, the following will describe the example embodiments according to the present application in detail with reference to the drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application, and it should be understood that the present application is not limited to the example embodiments described herein. Based on the embodiments of the present application described in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0034] In the following description, a large number of details are provided in order to enable a thorough understanding of the present application. However, those skilled in the art can understand that the following description only exemplarily shows the preferred embodiments of the present application, and the present application can be implemented without one or more such details. In addition, in order to avoid confusion with the present application, some technical features known in the art are not described in detail.

[0035] In order to thoroughly understand the embodiments of the present application, detailed structures will be proposed in the following description. Obviously, the implementation of the embodiments of the present application is not limited to the special details familiar to those skilled in the art. The preferred embodiments of the present application are described in detail as follows, however, in addition to these detailed descriptions, the present application can also have other embodiments.

[0036] One embodiment of the present application provides an automatic pathological archive management system, which can realize automatic transfer and archiving of pathological slide glasses 93. The following will introduce an automatic pathological archive management system according to an embodiment of the present application in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0037] As Figures 1 to 3As shown, the automated pathological archive management system comprises a workbench 1, a storage part 2, a first carrying mechanism 3, a correction device 4 and a second carrying mechanism 6. The storage part 2 and the correction device 4 are respectively arranged on the workbench 1, and a movement mechanism 7 is arranged above the workbench 1, and the movement mechanism 7 is connected with the first carrying mechanism 3 and the second carrying mechanism 6, so as to drive the first carrying mechanism 3 and the second carrying mechanism 6 to move along a first direction or a second direction. The first carrying mechanism 3 is used for transferring a slide disc 9 to the correction device 4, the correction device 4 is used for acting on the slide disc 9 so as to make pathological slides 93 on the slide disc 9 in a horizontal state, and the second carrying mechanism 6 is used for transferring the pathological slides 93 in the horizontal state into the storage part 2. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0038] The slide disc 9 can be used for placing the pathological slides 93, and in order to reduce the manufacturing cost and the daily maintenance cost of the slide disc 9, the slide disc 9 is usually made of plastic material. However, in the long-term use process, the slide disc 9 is prone to aging and deformation, and thus the pathological slides 93 placed thereon cannot be kept in the horizontal state. Thus, when the second carrying mechanism 6 is used to grab the pathological slides 93, the pathological slides 93 are prone to falling and being damaged due to the unfirm grabbing.

[0039] The storage part 2 and the correction device 4 can be respectively fixedly arranged on the workbench 1. The storage part 2 can be used for centrally storing the pathological slides 93. The first carrying mechanism 3 can transfer the slide disc 9 to the correction device 4. The correction device 4 can correct the deformed slide disc 9, so as to ensure that the pathological slides 93 placed thereon are in the horizontal state. Then, the second carrying mechanism 6 can firmly and stably clamp the pathological slides 93 and place them in the storage part 2. Thus, the safety of the pathological slide 93 archiving is effectively improved, and the automation level and the efficiency of the pathological slide 93 archiving are also effectively improved.

[0040] As shown in the figure, Figures 1 to 3 The automated pathological archive management system can further comprise a frame structure 10 arranged above the workbench 1. The movement mechanism 7 can be arranged on the frame structure 10, and the first carrying mechanism 3 and the second carrying mechanism 6 can be respectively connected with the movement mechanism 7, so as to move along the first direction or the second direction under the driving of the movement mechanism 7. The first direction can be represented as an X-axis direction in a Cartesian coordinate system, and the second direction can be represented as a Y-axis direction in the Cartesian coordinate system. Through the movement mechanism 7 on the frame structure 10, the first carrying mechanism 3 and the second carrying mechanism 6 have a larger carrying range, and the carrying efficiency and flexibility are significantly improved.

[0041] The automatic pathological archive management system of the application can effectively reduce the dispersion of each component in space and avoid occupying too much volume, since the storage part 2, the first conveying mechanism 3, the correction device 4 and the second conveying mechanism 6 can be arranged on the workbench 1 to form an integral structure. The first conveying mechanism 3 can transfer the slide tray 9 to the correction device 4, so that the plane on which the slide tray 9 is arranged is corrected to be parallel to the horizontal plane by the correction device 4. After the pathological slide 93 is in a horizontal state with the slide tray 9, the second conveying mechanism 6 can transfer the pathological slide 93 into the storage part. In this way, the automatic transfer and archiving of the pathological slide 93 are realized, the labor cost of the management personnel is significantly reduced, and the safety and reliability of the transfer of the pathological slide 93 are improved.

[0042] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 The second conveying mechanism 6 drives the pathological slide 93 to swing so that the pathological slide 93 enters the storage part 2 along a preset angle.

[0043] The storage part 2 can be arranged on the workbench 1 in an inclined manner. The storage part 2 can be provided with a plurality of accommodation cavities for placing the pathological slide 93. Each accommodation cavity can store a plurality of pathological slides 93. The second conveying mechanism 6 can clamp and drive the pathological slide 93 to swing so that the pathological slide 93 can be stored in the accommodation cavity of the storage part 2 along a preset angle.

[0044] In the above embodiment, when one pathological slide 93 is placed in the accommodation cavity of the storage part 2 along a preset angle, the pathological slide 93 can be in close contact with the bottom of the accommodation cavity under the action of gravity. When the pathological slide 93 is continuously stored in the accommodation cavity, the adjacent pathological slide 93 can be in close contact in sequence under the action of gravity. In this way, the storage of the pathological slide 93 can be not only neat but also in a large quantity.

[0045] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 to 3 The automatic pathological archive management system further comprises a visual code scanning device 5. The movement mechanism 7 is connected with the visual code scanning device 5 to drive the visual code scanning device 5 to move along the first direction or the second direction. The visual code scanning device 5 is used to collect the identification information on the pathological slide 93.

[0046] Each pathological slide 93 can be provided with identification information corresponding thereto, through which the patient to which the pathological tissue in the pathological slide 93 belongs, the pathological nature, the storage location and the like can be determined. Before the pathological slide 93 is stored in the storage member 2 by the second conveying mechanism 6, the visual code scanning device 5 can collect the identification information on the pathological slide 93 to record the specific storage location of the pathological slide 93 in the storage member 2 and the like. In this way, not only the borrowing efficiency of the pathological slide 93 is greatly improved, and the required pathological slide 93 can be quickly located and taken out, but also the return of the pathological slide 93 is facilitated, and the pathological slide 93 can be accurately returned to the original position, avoiding the occurrence of storage errors in the process of frequent borrowing and returning. The above-mentioned identification information can be presented in the form of a two-dimensional code or a bar code, and the present application does not make a specific limitation thereon.

[0047] In the above embodiment, the visual code scanning device 5 can collect and record the identification information on the pathological slide 93, through which the accuracy and reliability of the management of the pathological slide 93 can be significantly improved, and the archiving efficiency and automation level of the pathological slide 93 are greatly improved.

[0048] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 4 to 6 The correction device 4 includes a bearing table 41 and a correction assembly 42. The bearing table 41 is used to bear the slide disc 9. The correction assembly 42 includes a first correction member 421 and a second correction member 422 arranged on opposite sides of the bearing table 41. The first correction member 421 and the second correction member 422 move towards each other under control. At least one of the first correction member 421 and the second correction member 422 is provided with a correction portion 423. When the first correction member 421 and the second correction member 422 approach each other, the correction portion 423 is used to abut against the edge of the slide disc 9 and apply a force to the slide disc 9, so as to correct the plane on which the slide disc 9 is located to be parallel to the horizontal plane.

[0049] The shape of the above-mentioned bearing table 41 can be plate-shaped. The first correction member 421 and the second correction member 422 can be located above the bearing table 41 and arranged on opposite sides of the bearing table 41, respectively. The slide disc 9 can be placed on the plate-shaped bearing table 41, so as to reduce the volume of the correction device 4 and reduce the occupied volume of the correction device 4 while bearing the slide disc 9.

[0050] As shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 The shape of the above-mentioned first correction member 421 and second correction member 422 can be strip-shaped. The length of the strip-shaped first correction member 421 and second correction member 422 can be adapted to the edge length of the slide disc 9. In this way, the force can be uniformly applied to the slide disc 9.

[0051] Figure 6A perspective view of placing the warped or buckled slide tray 9 on the bearing table 41 is shown as follows. Figure 6 As shown, the first and second correction members 421 and 422 can be controlled to move away from or close to each other, and the correction part 423 can be arranged on the first and / or second correction members 421 and 422 close to the side of the bearing table 41. When the first and second correction members 421 and 422 move away from each other, the warped or buckled slide tray 9 can be placed on the bearing table 41, and when the first and second correction members 421 and 422 move close to each other, the correction part 423 can abut against the edge of the slide tray 9 and apply at least a vertical downward force to the slide tray 9, so as to correct the warped or buckled slide tray 9 and make the slide tray 9 in a horizontal state.

[0052] In the above embodiment, after the slide tray 9 is placed on the bearing table 41 of the correction device 4 by the first carrying mechanism 3, the first and second correction members 421 and 422 can move close to each other, so that the correction part 423 on the first and / or second correction members 421 and 422 can act on the edge of the slide tray 9 to make the slide tray 9 in a horizontal state, so that the pathological slide 93 on the slide tray 9 can be conveniently and firmly grabbed by the second carrying mechanism 6, effectively improving the safety of the pathological slide 93 during the transfer process.

[0053] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 6 The correction part 423 includes a first part 4231 and a second part 4232 connected to each other, the first part 4231 abuts against the first wall 91 of the slide tray 9, the second part 4232 abuts against the second wall 92 of the slide tray 9, and the first wall 91 and the second wall 92 are adjacent to each other.

[0054] The first side wall can specifically represent the upper wall of the slide tray 9, and the second side wall can specifically represent the side wall of the slide tray 9.

[0055] The side of the first and / or second correction members 421 and 422 towards the bearing table 41 can be recessed inward to form the correction part 423, the first and second parts 4231 and 4232 can be the adjacent inner side walls of the correction part 423, the first part 4231 can be used to apply a vertical downward force to the upper wall of the slide tray 9, and the second part 4232 can be used to apply a horizontal force to the side wall of the slide tray 9.

[0056] In the above embodiment, the first part 4231 of the correction part 423 can act on the first side wall of the slide tray 9, and the second part 4232 of the correction part 423 can act on the second side wall of the slide tray 9, so that the correction part 423 can simultaneously apply force to the two side walls of the slide tray 9 to avoid secondary deformation of the slide tray 9 due to uneven force during the correction process, effectively improving the stability of the correction device 4 during the correction process, and also improving the correction effect.

[0057] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 7 The first carrying mechanism 3 includes a first body 31, a material hooking assembly 32, and at least one first suction cup piece 33. The at least one first suction cup piece 33 is arranged on the side of the carrying first body 31 facing the slide tray 9. The material hooking assembly 32 is movably connected to the first body 31. After the at least one first suction cup piece 33 cooperates with the slide tray 9 to adsorb the slide tray 9, the material hooking assembly 32 moves towards the slide tray 9 to support the slide tray 9.

[0058] The first body 31 can be understood as a carrier for carrying the first suction cup piece 33 and the material hooking assembly 32. The first suction cup piece 33 and the material hooking assembly 32 can be arranged on the first body 31 to form a stable integrated structure.

[0059] The first suction cup piece 33 can be a suction cup. The suction cup can adsorb the slide tray 9 to avoid damage to the surface of the slide tray 9. The first suction cup piece 33 can use the principle of vacuum adsorption to stably adsorb the slide tray 9. When adsorbing the slide tray 9, the suction cup can have a slight elastic deformation, which not only increases the contact area between the suction cup and the slide tray 9, but also is suitable for adsorbing the slide tray 9 with an inclined angle, effectively ensuring the sealing property of the suction cup and the firmness and applicability of the adsorption.

[0060] The material hooking assembly 32 can be movably arranged beside the first body 31 and can move towards or away from the first body 31 under control. Thus, after the first suction cup piece 33 adsorbs the slide tray 9, the material hooking assembly 32 can move towards the first body 31 to support the slide tray 9. For example, after the first suction cup piece 33 adsorbs the slide tray 9 by 5 cm, the material hooking assembly 32 can move to the lower side of the slide tray 9 to support the slide tray 9. Thus, even if the first suction cup piece 33 fails due to unexpected circumstances, the material hooking assembly 32 can still support the slide tray 9, thereby avoiding the falling of the slide tray 9.

[0061] In the above embodiment, after the first suction cup member 33 absorbs the glass slide tray 9, the hook assembly 32 can move toward the first body 31 to support the glass slide tray 9, thereby avoiding the glass slide tray 9 from falling and being damaged due to an unexpected failure of the first suction cup member 33, and effectively improving the reliability of the first transport mechanism 3.

[0062] In some embodiments, there are multiple first suction cup members 33 , which are divided into multiple suction cup groups that are independently controlled. The multiple first suction cup members 33 in the same suction cup group are symmetrically arranged along the center line of the first body 31 .

[0063] The plurality of first suction cup members 33 can be divided into a plurality of independently controlled suction cup groups. Each suction cup group can have a corresponding suction pump, which can be used to achieve suction and detachment between the suction cup group and the slide tray 9. Furthermore, the independently controlled suction cup groups can each suction the slide tray 9, so that if one suction cup group malfunctions, the operation of the other suction cup groups will not be affected.

[0064] For example, Figure 7 For example, the plurality of first suction cup members 33 in the figure can be identified from left to right as the first suction cup member, the second suction cup member, the third suction cup member, the fourth suction cup member, and the fifth suction cup member. The first suction cup member and the fifth suction cup member can be identified as a suction cup group, the second suction cup member and the fourth suction cup member can be identified as a suction cup group, and the third suction cup member can be identified as a single suction cup group.

[0065] In the above embodiment, the multiple first suction cup members 33 can be divided into multiple suction cup groups that are independently controlled. In this way, when one of the suction cup groups fails, the glass slide tray 9 can still receive a balanced and uniform adsorption force from the other suction cup groups, thereby avoiding the glass slide tray 9 from falling due to uneven adsorption force, and effectively improving the reliability and safety of the first transport mechanism 3.

[0066] In some embodiments, as Figure 7 As shown, the hook assembly 32 includes a connecting portion 321 and a hook portion 322. At least part of the structure of the connecting portion 321 is movably connected to the first body 31, and the hook portion 322 is connected to the connecting portion 321. The hook portion 322 is driven by the connecting portion 321 to move toward the direction close to the glass slide tray 9 so as to abut against the bottom wall of the glass slide tray 9 to support the glass slide tray 9.

[0067] The hook material component 32 may be in an L-shape, wherein the vertical portion of the L-shaped hook material component 32 may be configured as the connecting portion 321 , and the horizontal portion may be configured as the hook material portion 322 .

[0068] When the hooking component 32 moves towards the slide tray 9, the hooking part 322 of the hooking component 32 can move below the slide tray 9 and abut against the bottom wall of the slide tray 9, so as to apply a supporting force to the slide tray 9.

[0069] In the above embodiment, the hooking part 322 of the hooking component 32 can stably apply a supporting force to the slide tray 9, effectively improving the reliability of the hooking component 32. Moreover, the hooking component 32 can support slide trays 9 of different shapes, i.e., the slide tray 9 only needs to have a bottom wall that can stably abut against the hooking component 32 to be supported, effectively improving the versatility of the hooking component 32.

[0070] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9 The second carrying mechanism 6 includes a second body 61, a second suction disc part 62, and a pushing part 63. The second suction disc part 62 is arranged on one side of the second body 61 facing the pathological slide 93. The pushing part 63 is movably arranged on the side of the second body 61. The second suction disc part 62 is used to adsorb and release the pathological slide 93. When the second suction disc part 62 releases the pathological slide 93, the pushing part 63 moves towards the pathological slide 93 under the action of a force to apply an action force to the pathological slide 93 to move it away from the second body 61.

[0071] The second body 61 can be used to carry the second suction disc part 62. The second suction disc part 62 can be a suction disc. The pathological slide 93 can be adsorbed by the suction disc to avoid damage to the surface of the pathological slide 93. The second suction disc part 62 can use the principle of vacuum adsorption to stably adsorb the pathological slide 93. When the pathological slide 93 is adsorbed, the suction disc can be elastically deformed slightly. In this way, the contact area between the suction disc and the pathological slide 93 can be increased, effectively ensuring the sealing property of the suction disc and the firmness of adsorption.

[0072] The pushing part 63 can be movably arranged on the side of the second body 61 and reciprocate between approaching and moving away from the pathological slide 93. When the second suction disc part 62 adsorbs the pathological slide 93, the pushing part 63 can move away from the pathological slide 93 to avoid interference of the pushing part 63 with the adsorption of the second suction disc part 62. When the second suction disc part 62 releases the pathological slide 93, the pushing part 63 can abut against the pathological slide 93 and apply an action force to it.

[0073] Specifically, the pathological slide 93 can specifically include an upper slide and a lower slide which are overlapped with each other, the pathological tissue of the patient can be placed between the upper slide and the lower slide, and the upper slide and the lower slide can be coated with a colloid to adhere the two. However, when the colloid overflows, the upper slide can be attached with the colloid, so that when the pathological slide 93 is transported by the second carrying mechanism 6, the upper slide is easily adhered to the second body 61, and the ejector 63 can ensure that the pathological slide 93 is separated from the second body 61, thereby avoiding that the pathological slide 93 is adhered to the second body 61 due to the colloid, so as to cause the failure of carrying the pathological slide 93 and affect the subsequent carrying operation.

[0074] Specifically, the ejector 63 can include a sleeve 631, a movable rod 632 and an elastic member, the sleeve 631 can be fixedly arranged on the second body 61, the movable rod 632 can be movably arranged on the sleeve 631 along the length direction of the sleeve 631, and the elastic member can be sleeved on the movable rod 632, and the elastic member can be used to apply a force to the movable rod 632 to move away from the second body 61. Therefore, when the force applied to the ejector 63 is removed, the elastic member can drive the movable rod 632 to move away from the pathological slide 93, so as to realize the automatic reset of the movable rod 632, thereby facilitating the next ejecting operation of the ejector 63.

[0075] In the above embodiment, the second suction member 62 can adsorb the pathological slide 93 to carry the pathological slide 93, and after the carrying member is transported to the target position, the ejector 63 can apply a force to the pathological slide 93 after being stressed, so as to ensure that the pathological slide 93 is smoothly separated from the second body 61, thereby effectively improving the safety, reliability and transportation efficiency of the second carrying mechanism 6.

[0076] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9 The second carrying mechanism 6 further includes a clamping member 64, which is rotatably arranged beside the second body 61. After the second suction member 62 adsorbs the pathological slide 93, the clamping member 64 is rotated along a third direction to clamp the pathological slide 93 by cooperation of the first end of the clamping member 64 and the second body 61.

[0077] Specifically, the side of the clamping member 64 facing the pathological slide 93 can be the first end of the clamping member 64, the clamping member 64 can be rotated along the third direction so that the first end of the clamping member 64 can be close to the pathological slide 93 to clamp the pathological slide 93, and the clamping member 64 can also be rotated along a fourth direction so that the first end of the clamping member 64 can be away from the pathological slide 93 to release the pathological slide 93. The third direction can specifically represent a clockwise direction, and the fourth direction can specifically represent a counterclockwise direction.

[0078] In the above embodiment, after the second suction piece 62 adsorbs the pathological slide 93, the material clamping piece 64 can move in the third direction, so that the first end of the material clamping piece 64 can abut against the bottom wall of the pathological slide 93 and apply a clamping force to the pathological slide 93. Thus, during the transportation of the pathological slide 93, when the second suction piece 62 fails due to unexpected circumstances, the material clamping piece 64 can still clamp the pathological slide 93, avoiding the pathological slide 93 from falling and breaking, and significantly improving the safety and reliability of the second conveying mechanism 6.

[0079] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9 When the material clamping piece 64 rotates in the fourth direction, the second end of the material clamping piece 64 abuts against the first end of the material pushing piece 63 and drives the second end of the material pushing piece 63 to move towards the pathological slide 93, so as to apply a force to the pathological slide 93 to move it away from the second body 61, wherein the third direction is opposite to the fourth direction.

[0080] Specifically, when the material clamping piece 64 rotates in the third direction or the fourth direction, the second end of the material clamping piece 64 can be synchronously separated from or abut against the movable rod 632.

[0081] In the above embodiment, while the first end of the material clamping piece 64 releases the pathological slide 93, the second end of the material clamping piece 64 can synchronously drive the material pushing piece 63 to move, so that the material pushing piece 63 can apply a force to the pathological slide 93. Thus, without setting an additional driving device to drive the material pushing piece 63, a set of driving devices can be used to drive the material pushing piece 63 and the material clamping piece 64 to move, which not only ensures that the material pushing piece 63 and the material clamping piece 64 can cooperate to separate the pathological slide 93 from the second body 61, but also simplifies the mechanical structure of the second conveying mechanism 6 and reduces the manufacturing difficulty and cost of the second conveying mechanism 6.

[0082] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 The workbench 1 is sequentially provided with a first area 11, a second area 12 and a third area 13. The first conveying mechanism 3 is arranged corresponding to the first area 11, the visual code scanning device 5 is arranged corresponding to the second area 12, and the second conveying mechanism 6 is arranged corresponding to the third area 13.

[0083] In the above embodiment, the workbench 1 can be divided into the first area 11, the second area 12 and the third area 13 according to the filing process of the pathological slides 93, the first carrying mechanism 3 can be arranged corresponding to the first area 11, the visual code scanning device 5 can be arranged corresponding to the second area 12, and the second carrying mechanism 6 can be arranged corresponding to the third area 13. In this way, by dividing the workbench 1 into three areas with clear functions, the filing process of the pathological slides 93 can be made clearer and more orderly, the possibility of disorder and error in the filing process is reduced, and the work efficiency and accuracy of the management and filing of the pathological slides 93 are effectively improved.

[0084] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 The automatic pathological archive management system further comprises a pull platform 8, which is slidingly arranged on the workbench 1, and the storage member 2 is arranged on the pull platform 8.

[0085] The pull platform 8 can be slidingly arranged on the workbench 1, and a pull handle 81 can be arranged on the pull platform 8. After the storage member 2 is filled with the pathological slides 93, the user can pull the pull handle 81 to pull the pull platform 8 out of the workbench 1, so as to conveniently replace the storage member 2.

[0086] In the above embodiment, when the storage member 2 is filled with the pathological slides 93, it can be quickly pulled out and replaced with a new storage member 2, reducing the time and steps for replacing the storage member 2, and effectively improving the practicability and flexibility of the automatic pathological archive management system.
