TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the protection field of scanning electron microscopes, and particularly relates to a pull-out type protective cover for a scanning electron microscope. BACKGROUND
[0002] A scanning electron microscope is an electron microscope which generates an image of a sample by scanning a surface with a focused electron beam. Electrons interact with atoms in the sample, producing various signals containing information about the sample's topography and composition. The current scanning electron microscope lacks protection and is easily touched during use. There are similar protection mechanisms on the market, such as a workbench for a scanning electron microscope in CN114772077A. However, the opening of the workbench is relatively troublesome, and the electron microscope on the bearing table needs to be manually opened to pull out the electron microscope, which is not convenient.

The size of the cover can also be adjusted to better fit its shape, allowing for flexible use.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0014] 1. Pull the cover to the left. Because the ball is stuck in the receiving cavity of the mounting plate, and the mounting plate does not move, the pull rope is pulled as the cover moves, causing the baffle to flip open. This eliminates the need to manually open the baffle and exposes the electron microscope, achieving two goals at once and making it more convenient.
[0015] 2. As the enclosure moves to the left, the slot will then contact the ball until they are directly aligned. The ball will be pulled, and the left wall of the receiving cavity will tilt, pressing the ball into the slot. The spring will compress, so the ball is in the slot, which is located on the bottom wall of the enclosure. As the enclosure moves to the left, the pull rope also moves along the slide. At this point, the pull rope will no longer pull, and the baffle will flip to the top of the enclosure, thus ensuring that it can be pulled open in a short time to facilitate the exposure of the electron microscope, and ensuring that it will not move after flipping to the top.
[0016] 3. The cover can stop at any position. The torsion spring on the baffle pulls the pull rope, and the locking ball at the end of the pull rope is located in the locking groove. Therefore, only the cover itself is under force, without any external force, and it will not slide. When returning to the right, when the locking groove is aligned with the receiving cavity, it will be exposed under the action of the spring. Then it will be scraped into the right wall of the inner cavity of the receiving cavity. Then the locking groove will be misaligned, and the baffle will rotate clockwise under the action of the torsion spring, thus closing the baffle. This closing method does not require manual operation of the baffle, which is simple and convenient. Attached Figure Description
