[0030] The following will be combined with the specific implementation of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solution in the utility model. Obviously, the described implementation is only a part of the implementation of the utility model, not all of the implementations. Based on the implementation of the utility model, all other implementations obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0031] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a glass slide station of the utility model includes a mounting box 1, a plurality of fixing frames 2, a liquid level sensor 4, a heating plate 5 and a cover plate 6.

[0032] The installation box 1 is used to support other components and provide an operating environment for operations such as dyeing, cleaning and re-dyeing of glass. The installation box 1 is a box structure with an opening facing upward.

[0033] The fixing frame 2 is used to fix the glass slide 3. The fixing frame 2 is integrally formed in the installation box 1 and is inclined with respect to the horizontal plane. The multiple fixing frames 2 have the same inclination angle with the horizontal plane and are located at the same vertical height. When adding reagent into the installation box 1, as the reagent blade rises, the reagent can infiltrate the glass slide 3 from bottom to top, thereby realizing the corresponding operation. In this process, since the inclination angle and installation height of the multiple fixing frames 2 are the same, the height of the multiple glass slides 3 infiltrated by the liquid surface will also be the same. Therefore, the infiltration height and infiltration degree of the multiple glass slides 3 can be kept consistent, thereby improving the consistency of the operation of the multiple glass slides 3 and ensuring the accuracy of the test results.

[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, the fixing frame 2 includes a supporting panel 21, a limiting block 22 and a fixing block 23, wherein the supporting panel 21 is integrally formed in the installation box 1 and is inclined with respect to the horizontal plane, the inclination angles of the plurality of supporting panels 21 with respect to the horizontal plane are the same, and the plurality of supporting panels 21 are located at the same vertical height; the limiting block 22 is integrally formed on the top side of the supporting panel 21 and abuts against the bottom end of the glass slide 3. When the glass slide 3 is placed on the upper surface of the supporting panel 21, the abutment between its bottom end and the limiting block 22 can prevent the glass slide 3 from sliding off the supporting panel 21, thereby achieving a positioning effect; the fixing block 23 is integrally formed on the top side of the supporting panel 21 and is located on the side of the glass slide 3 away from the supporting panel 21. The fixing block 23 is used to limit the top side of the glass slide 3 to prevent the glass slide 3 from being easily separated from the supporting panel 21. The fixing block 23 can abut against the top side of the glass slide 3 or be spaced 1-2 mm apart from it.

[0035] The cross section of the limiting block 22 is preferably L-shaped so that it is slidably connected to the side of the glass slide 3, thereby preventing the glass slide 3 from sliding in the horizontal direction.

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, two groups of fixing frames 2 are provided, each group is provided with a plurality of fixing frames 2, and the plurality of fixing frames 2 in the same group are arranged side by side along the width direction of the glass slide 3, and the two groups of fixing frames 2 are arranged symmetrically about the center line of the installation box 1. By using this arrangement, the cross-sectional area for storing reagents in the installation box 1 can be reduced, thereby reducing the amount of reagents required to be added, which has the effect of saving resources; correspondingly, the installation box 1 is a structure that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, such as Figure 4 As shown, the installation box 1 is in the shape of a triangular prism, which can reduce the space it occupies.

[0037] In order to conveniently discharge the used reagent to the outside of the installation box 1, a drain port 101 can be opened on the bottom side of the installation box 1, and the drain port 101 can be selectively blocked with a rubber plug or other equipment to achieve the discharge or storage of the reagent.

[0038] The liquid level sensor 4 is used to detect the liquid level height of the reagent in the installation box 1 in real time. The liquid level sensor 4 is fixedly arranged on the side wall of the installation box 1. When the liquid level height of the reagent is sufficient to immerse the sample in the glass slide 3, it can be used in conjunction with the control device to realize the start and stop of the reagent adding device.

[0039] The heating plate 5 is used to heat the glass slide 3 and the reagent. The heating plate 5 is fixedly arranged on the bottom side of the installation box 1. When the heating plate 5 heats the installation box 1, it can provide an appropriate temperature for the sample and reagent in the glass slide 3, so that this glass slide station can adapt to different usage conditions.

[0040] The cover plate 6 is used to protect the glass slide 3. The cover plate 6 is slidably set on the installation box 1 and selectively blocks its opening. It can be connected with the electric telescopic rod to realize automatic sealing of the installation box 1 by the cover plate 6. When the glass slide 3 is stained or the like, the cover plate 6 seals the installation box 1 to prevent dust and other impurities from entering. When the heating plate 5 heats the reagent, the cover plate 6 seals the installation box 1 to reduce the evaporation of the reagent.

[0041] A method for using a slide station of the utility model is as follows:

[0042] When staining the glass slides 3, firstly, multiple glass slides 3 are placed on the corresponding fixing frames 2, then the drain outlet 101 is blocked, and the corresponding reagents are added into the installation box 1. When the liquid level sensor 4 detects that the amount of reagent added is sufficient, the addition of the reagent is stopped, and finally the blockage in the drain outlet 101 is removed, and the reagents are discharged to the outside of the installation box 1 for unified recovery. During this period, the heating plate 5 can be started to heat the reagents to provide an appropriate temperature for the test, and the electric telescopic rod can be used to push the cover plate 6 to cover the installation box 1 to protect the staining process.

[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. 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.
