[0033] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0034] Reference Figure 1-3The utility model provides an embodiment: a medical glass slide scanner, including a shell 1, the inner wall of the shell 1 is fixedly connected with two sets of scanners 5, the shell 1 is the main body of the medical glass slide scanner, and the scanner 5 is an instrument for scanning the glass slide, which are all existing technologies well known to professionals in the field and will not be repeated here. The inner wall of the bottom end of the shell 1 is provided with a mounting mechanism, and the glass slide rack 205 can be installed inside the shell 1 through the mounting mechanism for scanning operation.

[0035] Reference Figure 3-4 The mounting mechanism includes a tray 202, and the mounting mechanism is provided with two groups. The slide rack 205 can be placed on the tray 202, and the tray 202 is inserted into the shell 1 to scan the slide rack 205. The inner wall of the shell 1 is provided with a slide groove 203, and the tray 202 is elastically connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 203 through a return spring 201. When the tray 202 is inserted inward, the return spring 201 is forced to shrink, and one end of the return spring 201 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 203, and the other end of the return spring 201 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the tray 202. When not affected by external force, the return spring 201 drives the tray 202 to remain in an outward pop-up state due to its own elastic force, and the slide rack 205 is popped out of the shell 1 to facilitate the operator to take it.

[0036] Reference Figure 3-4 The tray 202 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 203, and a block 206 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bottom end of the tray 202. The block 206 is engaged with the block 301 to limit the tray 202 and fix the tray 202 inside the shell 1. The inner wall of the tray 202 is detachably mounted with a slide rack 205, and the slide to be scanned can be placed on the slide rack 205 for scanning. The inner wall of the shell 1 is provided with a groove 204, and the block 206 slides on the inner wall of the groove 204. When one group of blocks 206 moves inward, the block 301 is squeezed to move the block 301 downward, and the other group of blocks 206 is out of contact with the block 301. The elastic force of the reset spring 201 can drive the tray 202 to pop out, and the slide rack 205 is popped out of the shell 1, which is convenient for the operator to take.

[0037] Reference Figure 3-4 A limiting component is provided on the inner wall of the bottom end of the shell 1, and the tray 202 can be limited by the limiting component to fix the tray 202 inside the shell 1. An opening and closing mechanism 4 is provided on the inner wall of the front end of the shell 1, and the shell 1 can be closed by the opening and closing mechanism 4 to prevent dust from entering the shell 1 and affecting the glass slide rack 205 and the tray 202.

[0038] Reference Figure 4-5The limit assembly includes a stopper 301, which is provided with an arc surface. When the tray 202 moves inward, the block 206 contacts the arc surface of the stopper 301. The stopper 301 is elastically connected to the inner wall of the bottom end of the shell 1 through the telescopic spring 302. When not affected by external force, the stopper 301 maintains an upward pop-up state due to the elastic force of the telescopic spring 302 itself, and is engaged with a group of blocks 206, so that the tray 202 on the group of blocks 206 can be fixed.

[0039] Reference Figure 4-5 One end of the telescopic spring 302 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bottom end of the shell 1, and the other end of the telescopic spring 302 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bottom end of the block 301. The outer wall of the block 301 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the bottom end of the shell 1. When one group of blocks 206 squeezes the block 301, the block 301 moves downward, thereby breaking contact with another group of blocks 206, and the limit of the group of trays 202 can be released, so that the tray 202 pops out of the shell 1. The block 301 contacts the block 206, thereby limiting the tray 202 and fixing the tray 202.

[0040] Reference Figure 5-6 The opening and closing mechanism 4 includes a baffle 401, the outer wall of the baffle 401 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the front end of the shell 1, and the baffle 401 can close the groove on the shell 1 corresponding to the tray 202 to prevent dust from entering. The inner wall of the baffle 401 is elastically connected with a protrusion 403 through a connecting spring 402. The protrusion 403 is hemispherical, which can have a certain limiting effect on the baffle 401 and facilitate the up and down movement of the baffle 401. One end of the connecting spring 402 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the protrusion 403, and the other end of the connecting spring 402 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the baffle 401. When not affected by external force, the protrusion 403 pops out due to the elastic force of the connecting spring 402 itself, and is engaged with the through groove opened on the outer wall of the shell 1, so that the position of the baffle 401 can be fixed.

[0041] Reference Figure 5-6 The outer wall of the protrusion 403 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the baffle 401. When the baffle 401 moves up and down, the through groove opened on the outer wall of the shell 1 produces an extrusion force on the arc surface of the protrusion 403, so that the protrusion 403 moves inward along the inner wall of the baffle 401, and the limit of the baffle 401 can be released. The baffle 401 is moved, and the outer wall of the baffle 401 is fixedly connected with a shift block 404, which penetrates and slides inside the shell 1. The baffle 401 can be driven to move up and down by shifting the shift block 404.

[0042] Working principle: the operator can first push the push block 404 upward to drive the baffle 401 to move upward. At this time, the grooves on the outer wall of the shell 1 produce a squeezing force on the arc surface of the protrusion 403, so that the protrusion 403 moves inward along the inner wall of the baffle 401. When the baffle 401 moves to the position where the protrusion 403 corresponds to another group of grooves, the connecting spring 402 drives the protrusion 403 to pop outward due to its own elastic force and engages with the group of grooves, so that the position of the baffle 401 can be fixed. Then the operator can insert the slide rack 205 with the glass slide placed into the tray 202. The slide rack 205 is then pressed inwardly to move the tray 202 inwardly along the inner wall of the slide groove 203. The block 206 exerts a squeezing force on the curved surface of the block 301, causing the block 301 to move downward and disengage from the other set of blocks 206. When the tray 202 moves to the deepest part of the slide groove 203, the block 301 pops up upward due to the elastic force of the telescopic spring 302 and engages with the block 206, thereby fixing the position of the tray 202 and making the slide correspond to the position of the scanner 5, so that the slide can be scanned by the scanner 5.

[0043] During the scanning process, the operator can press the dial block 404 downward to drive the baffle 401 to move downward. At this time, the groove opened on the outer wall of the shell 1 produces an extrusion force on the protrusion 403, causing the protrusion 403 to move inward along the inner wall of the baffle 401. When the baffle 401 moves downward to the position where the protrusion 403 corresponds to the groove position below the outer wall of the shell 1, the protrusion 403 pops out and engages with the group of grooves, thereby fixing the position of the baffle 401, avoiding the problem that the through groove corresponding to the tray 202 cannot be closed, and dust may enter the shell 1 and affect the glass slides on the glass slide rack 205.

[0044] When one group of slides is scanned, the operator can insert another group of slide racks 205 with slides placed on them into another group of trays 202, push the group of trays 202 inward, so that the block 206 on the group of trays 202 squeezes the block 301 and moves the block 301 downward. At this time, the block 301 is out of contact with the block 206 on the previous group of trays 202, and the limit of the previous group of trays 202 is released. The reset spring 201 drives the group of trays 202 to pop out outward, thereby driving a part of the slide rack 205 to pop out of the shell 1, and the block 301 pops up upward under the elastic force of the telescopic spring 302 itself, limits the other group of trays 202, and scans the slides through the scanner 5, so that when one group of slide racks 205 is inserted, the other group of slide racks 205 can be automatically popped out, which is convenient for the operator to take. Compared with some existing methods that can only scan one group of slide racks 205, it saves installation and removal time and improves work efficiency.

[0045] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
