These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams that only illustrate the basic structure of the present invention in a schematic manner, and therefore only show the components related to the present invention.

At the same time, with the cooperation of the angle adjustment component, the inclination angle of the sample stage body 15 can be adjusted, thereby improving the multi-angle and all-round observation viewing angle of the sample, thereby improving the controllability and practicality of the device.

[0031] Handles 5 are fixed on both sides of the fixed frame 1. The provision of the handles 5 makes it convenient for the user to hold the handles 5 and drive the whole to move.

[0032] A plurality of supporting legs 6 are fixed to the bottom of the fixed frame 1, and an anti-skid pad 61 is fixed to the bottom of the supporting legs 6; the provision of the plurality of supporting legs 6 facilitates the support of the fixed frame 1, and the provision of the anti-skid pad 61 can provide an anti-skid and stable support.

[0033] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the rotation adjustment assembly includes: a worm wheel 2 fixed on the rotating rod 11, a worm 21 arranged on the inner side of the fixed frame 1, and a crank 22 fixed to one end of the worm 21 located outside the fixed frame 1.

[0034] It should be noted that the side of the worm 21 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the fixed frame 1, and the worm 21 is meshed with the worm wheel 2; when it is necessary to rotate the sample stage body 15 and the observed sample, hold the crank 22 to drive the worm 21 to rotate, and through the meshing of the worm 21 and the worm wheel 2, the worm wheel 2 and the rotating rod 11 can be driven to rotate while rotating, thereby driving the sample stage body 15 on the top and the observed sample to be rotated and adjusted.

[0035] The angle adjustment assembly includes: a servo motor 3 fixed to one side of the rotating frame 12, a rotating shaft 31 fixed to the output end of the servo motor 3, and a driving gear 32 fixed to the rotating shaft 31 located on the inner side of the swing groove 13; a driven gear 33 is arranged on the inner side of the movable block 14.

[0036] It should be noted that the side of the rotating shaft 31 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the swing groove 13, the two sides of the driven gear 33 are fixed to the inner side of the movable block 14, and the driving gear 32 is meshed and connected with the driven gear 33; when it is necessary to adjust the observation angle of the sample stage body 15 and the observed sample, the servo motor 3 is started to drive the rotating shaft 31 to rotate, which can drive the driving gear 32 fixed on the side of the rotating shaft 31 to rotate synchronously, and through the meshing of the driving gear 32 with the driven gear 33 fixed on the inner side of the movable block 14, when the driving gear 32 rotates, the movable block 14 can be flipped to the left or right with the driven gear 33 as the center, thereby driving the sample stage body 15 and the observed sample on the top of the movable block 14, thereby adjusting the observation angle.

[0039] It should be noted that when the worm 21 is driven to rotate the sample stage body 15, the rotating pointer 42 at one end of the worm 21 will rotate synchronously. Since one end of the rotating pointer 42 is opposite to one side of the rotating scale 41, it is convenient to observe and record the adjustment distance during rotation. When the movable block 14 is driven to adjust the tilt angle of the sample stage body 15, the angle pointer 44 at the bottom of the sample stage body 15 will tilt synchronously.

The angle pointer 44 at the bottom of the sample stage body 15 will tilt synchronously. Since the bottom of the angle pointer 44 is opposite to one side of the angle scale 43, it is convenient to observe and record the tilt angle during tilt, thereby improving the multi-angle and all-round observation viewing angle of the sample, thereby improving the controllability and practicality of the device.
