Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pathology medical devices, and in particular to a pathology specimen embedding device. Background Art

[0002] The pathological specimen embedding device, also known as the biological tissue embedding machine or paraffin embedding machine, is a medical device for embedding human or animal and plant specimens after dehydration and wax immersion for histological diagnosis or research after sectioning. Its specific structure includes an embedding mechanism and a cooling mechanism. The medical staff places the embedding mold under the output end of the embedding mechanism, and then places the specimen to be embedded in the embedding box, and then places the embedding box in the embedding mold, and finally starts the embedding mechanism. After the embedding is completed, the embedding mold is taken and placed on the cooling mechanism for cooling, and finally the cooled embedding block in the embedding box is taken out.

[0003] However, after the medical staff places the embedding mold, in order to prevent the embedding mold from shaking, the medical staff needs to hold the embedding mold all the time during the entire embedding process until the paraffin output by the embedding mechanism completely wraps the embedding box before closing the embedding mechanism. This causes the paraffin output by the embedding mechanism to stick to the gloves of the medical staff during the embedding process, which makes it very troublesome for the medical staff to take off their gloves later due to the paraffin. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this application is to provide a pathological specimen embedding device to solve the technical problem in the prior art that the embedding process requires medical staff to hold the embedding mold all the time, resulting in the paraffin output by the embedding mechanism possibly sticking to the gloves of the medical staff.

[0005] The above-mentioned purpose of the present application is achieved through the following technical scheme: a pathological specimen embedding device, including an embedding mechanism and a cooling mechanism, wherein the embedding mechanism and the cooling mechanism are provided with fixing structures on opposite sides so that medical staff can fix the embedding mold without touching the embedding mold.

[0006] Furthermore, the fixed structure includes a movable bracket installed on opposite sides of the embedding mechanism and the cooling mechanism and two clamps installed on the movable bracket and opposite to each other. The two clamps are opposite to each other and slidably connected to the movable bracket. The movable bracket is arranged along the length direction of the embedding mechanism and the cooling mechanism and is located below the output end of the embedding mechanism.

[0007] Furthermore, the movable bracket includes two fixed plates respectively arranged on opposite sides of the embedding mechanism and the cooling mechanism, a first movable plate arranged between the two fixed plates at the front end of the two fixed plates, and a second movable plate arranged between the two fixed plates at the rear end of the two fixed plates, the first movable plate and the second movable plate are opposite to each other, a first through opening for a clamping plate to pass through is opened on a side of the first movable plate opposite to the second movable plate, a sliding groove is opened on a side of the second movable plate opposite to the first movable plate, and the clamping plate passes through the first movable plate through the first through opening and the sliding groove and is slidably connected to the second movable plate.

[0008] By adopting the above technical scheme, the embedding mold is placed between the two clamps, and then the specimen to be embedded is placed in the embedding box, and then the embedding box is placed in the embedding mold, and then the two clamps are slid close to each other to clamp the embedding mold, and then the sliding clamp makes the embedding mold move to below the output end of the embedding mechanism, and the embedding mechanism is started. After the embedding is completed, the sliding clamp is moved to make the embedding mold move along the second movable plate to above the cooling mechanism, and then the two clamps are loosened to make the embedding mold detach from the clamp, and placed on the cooling mechanism for cooling, and finally the cooled embedding block in the embedding box is taken out. In this way, during the entire embedding process, the medical staff does not need to hold the embedding mold all the time, which reduces the contact between the medical staff and the embedding mechanism, thereby preventing the paraffin output by the embedding mechanism from contacting the medical staff, so that the medical staff does not need to worry about the paraffin sticking to the gloves, making it more convenient for the medical staff to use the embedding machine.

[0009] Furthermore, the chute extends to the upper part of the cooling mechanism near the embedding mechanism, and the second movable plate is provided with a second through hole opposite to the first through hole at the part above the cooling mechanism, and the second through hole is connected to the chute.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, although the setting of the fixed structure makes it more convenient for medical staff to use the embedding machine, due to the limitation of the fixed structure, when medical staff place the embedding mold on the cooling mechanism, they can only place it along the length of the second movable plate. This makes it impossible for medical staff to place the embedding mold in other places of the cooling mechanism, reducing the utilization rate of the cooling mechanism. The setting of the second through opening solves this technical problem. Through the setting of the second through opening, when the splint clamps the embedding mold and moves it above the cooling mechanism, the splint can be pushed toward the direction of the cooling mechanism through the second through opening, so that the splint carries the embedding mold through the second movable plate, so that the medical staff can place the embedding mold in other positions of the cooling mechanism, thereby improving the utilization rate of the cooling mechanism.

[0011] Furthermore, fixing bolts are provided on the sides of the two fixing plates that are away from each other, and the fixing bolts pass through the fixing plates and are threadedly connected to the embedding mechanism or the cooling mechanism.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the fixing plate is installed by fixing bolts, so that when the fixing structure needs to be replaced after long-term use, it can be replaced by simply unscrewing the fixing bolts, making the replacement of the fixing structure more convenient.

[0013] Furthermore, a control structure is provided at one end of the splint away from the first movable plate to facilitate medical staff to use the splint.

[0014] Furthermore, the control structure includes a positioning plate and a control bolt passing through two clamping plates, one of the two clamping plates is fixedly connected to the positioning plate, and the other is slidably connected to the positioning plate, and the control bolt is threadedly connected to the clamping plate.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, although the setting of the fixed structure makes it more convenient for medical staff to use the embedding machine, in the process of moving and positioning the embedding mold, the medical staff needs to hold the two splints all the time, which is very laborious and inconvenient. The setting of the control structure solves this technical problem. The medical staff places the embedding mold between the two splints, and then turns the control bolt so that the control bolt drives the splint slidably connected to the positioning plate to move and clamp the embedding mold. In this way, the medical staff does not need to hold the splint all the time, which makes it more convenient for the medical staff to use the splint.

[0016] Furthermore, a control handle is fixedly provided on a side of the positioning plate away from the clamping plate.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient for medical staff to move the splint.

[0018] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0019] By setting up the fixed structure, the medical staff does not need to hold the embedding mold all the time during the entire embedding process, which reduces the contact between the medical staff and the embedding mechanism, thereby preventing the paraffin output by the embedding mechanism from contacting the medical staff. In this way, the medical staff does not need to worry about the paraffin sticking to the gloves, making it more convenient for the medical staff to use the embedding machine.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Example, see Figure 1 A pathological specimen embedding device includes an embedding mechanism 1 and a cooling mechanism 10. The embedding mechanism 1 and the cooling mechanism 10 are provided with a fixing structure 2 on opposite sides thereof so that medical personnel can fix the embedding mold without touching the embedding mold. The fixing structure 2 includes a movable bracket 20 and two flexibly slidable clamping plates 21 mounted thereon. The two clamping plates 21 are arranged opposite to each other on the left and right sides, thereby ensuring that the mold can be firmly fixed without directly touching the embedding mold.

[0025] Specifically, the movable bracket 20 is supported by two fixed plates 200 firmly mounted on opposite sides of the embedding mechanism 1 and the cooling mechanism 10. Furthermore, a first movable plate 201 and a second movable plate 202 are respectively arranged at the front and rear ends of the two fixed plates 200. The first movable plate 201 and the second movable plate 202 are opposite to each other and are located between the two fixed plates 200, forming a sliding track for the clamping plate 21. It is particularly worth mentioning that a first through hole 203 specially for the clamping plate 21 to pass through is provided on the first movable plate 201, and a slide groove 204 is provided on the second movable plate 202, so that the clamping plate 21 can smoothly pass through the first through hole 203 and slide smoothly in the slide groove 204, thereby realizing flexible clamping and movement of the embedding mold.

[0026] In actual operation, medical staff only need to simply place the embedding mold between the two clamps 21, then properly place the specimen to be embedded in the embedding box, and then place the embedding box in the mold. Then, by sliding the two clamps 21, they gradually approach and tightly clamp the embedding mold, and then continue to slide the clamps 21 to drive the embedding mold to move smoothly below the output end of the embedding mechanism 1. At this time, the embedding mechanism 1 is started to carry out the embedding operation of the specimen.

[0027] After the embedding process is completed, the medical staff slides the clamping plate 21 again to allow the embedding mold to move smoothly along the second movable plate 202 to the top of the cooling mechanism 10. Then, the two clamping plates 21 are gently released, and the embedding mold can naturally detach from the clamping plate 21 under the action of gravity and fall steadily on the cooling mechanism 10 for cooling. Finally, the medical staff only needs to easily take out the embedded block that has been cooled and formed in the embedding box, and the entire embedding operation is completed.

[0028] This innovative design greatly reduces the physical burden of medical staff during embedding operations, effectively avoiding their direct contact with the embedding mechanism 1, thereby effectively preventing potential harm to medical staff caused by paraffin. Medical staff no longer need to worry about paraffin accidentally sticking to gloves, making the use of the embedding machine more convenient, efficient and safe.

[0029] Although the setting of the fixed structure 2 makes it more convenient for medical staff to use the embedding machine, due to the limitation of the fixed structure 2, when the medical staff places the embedding mold on the cooling mechanism 10, they can only place it along the length of the second movable plate 202. This makes it impossible for the medical staff to place the embedding mold in other places of the cooling mechanism 10, reducing the utilization rate of the cooling mechanism 10. In order to solve this technical problem, in this embodiment, the slide groove 204 is set to extend to the upper side of the cooling mechanism 10 close to the embedding mechanism 1, and the second movable plate 202 is located on the cooling mechanism 10. A second through hole 205 relative to the first through hole 203 is provided in the portion above the cooling mechanism 10, and the second through hole 205 is connected to the slide groove 204. Through the setting of the second through hole 205, when the splint 21 clamps the embedding mold and moves to the top of the cooling mechanism 10, the splint 21 can be pushed toward the cooling mechanism 10 through the second through hole 205, so that the splint 21 passes through the second movable plate 202 with the embedding mold, so that the medical staff can place the embedding mold at other positions of the cooling mechanism 10, thereby improving the utilization rate of the cooling mechanism 10.

[0030] In this embodiment, fixing bolts 22 are provided on the sides of the two fixing plates 200 that are away from each other. The fixing bolts 22 pass through the fixing plates 200 and are threadedly connected to the embedding mechanism 1 or the cooling mechanism 10. The fixing plates 200 are installed by the fixing bolts 22, so that when the fixing structure 2 needs to be replaced after long-term use, it can be replaced by simply unscrewing the fixing bolts 22, making the replacement of the fixing structure 2 more convenient.

[0031] Although the setting of the fixed structure 2 makes it more convenient for medical staff to use the embedding machine, in the process of moving and positioning the embedding mold, the medical staff needs to hold the two splints 21 all the time, which is very laborious and inconvenient. In order to solve this technical problem, refer to Figure 2In this embodiment, a control structure 3 is provided at one end of the splint 21 away from the first movable plate 201 for medical staff to use the splint 21. The control structure 3 includes a positioning plate 30 and a control bolt 31 passing through the two splints 21. One of the two splints 21 is fixedly connected to the positioning plate 30, and the other is slidably connected to the positioning plate 30. The control bolt 31 is threadedly connected to the splint 21. The medical staff places the embedding mold between the two splints 21, and then turns the control bolt 31 so that the control bolt 31 drives the splint 21 slidably connected to the positioning plate 30 to move and clamp the embedding mold. In this way, the medical staff does not need to hold the splint 21 all the time, which makes it more convenient for the medical staff to use the splint 21. A control handle 32 is fixedly provided on one side of the positioning plate 30 away from the splint 21 to facilitate the medical staff to move the splint 21.

[0032] The specific implementation process is as follows: the embedding mold is placed between the two clamping plates 21, and then the control bolt 31 is turned so that the control bolt 31 drives the clamping plate 21 slidably connected to the positioning plate 30 to move and clamp the embedding mold, and then the specimen to be embedded is placed in the embedding box, and then the embedding box is placed in the embedding mold, and then the clamping plate 21 is slid by the control handle 32 to move the embedding mold to the bottom of the output end of the embedding mechanism 1, and the embedding mechanism 1 is started. After the embedding is completed, the sliding clamping plate 21 is moved so that the embedding mold moves along the second movable plate 202 to the top of the cooling mechanism 10, and then the control bolt 31 is turned in the opposite direction so that the two clamping plates 21 loosen the embedding mold, so that it falls on the cooling mechanism 10 for cooling, and finally the cooled embedding block in the embedding box is taken out.

[0033] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
