[0002] Chinese appearance patent application number CN202330506117.7 discloses an inverted biological fluorescence microscope. When in use, the microscope is placed directly on a table and contacts the table through four supporting legs at the bottom. Since the contact area with the table is small, the microscope may move on the table when accidentally touched by a staff member, causing the position of the sample originally aligned to change, requiring refocusing and repositioning, wasting time and energy. If the collision is more severe, the sample placed on the microscope stage may also be deformed, and thus cannot meet the observation needs. Therefore, to address the above problems, we propose a fluorescence microscope fixing bracket. Utility Model Content

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Reference Figures 1-6 As shown, the fluorescence microscope fixing bracket of this embodiment includes a support plate 1, a splint 2 and a bolt 3. The upper end of the support plate 1 is provided with a first sliding hole 11 that passes through the support plate 1 up and down, and the first sliding hole 11 has two, and the two first sliding holes 11 are distributed at intervals left and right. The upper end of the support plate 1 is provided with four supporting foot accommodating grooves 13, and the four supporting foot accommodating grooves 13 are used to accommodate the supporting feet of the fluorescence microscope. The four supporting foot accommodating grooves 13 are distributed in a regular trapezoidal shape. The front end of the support plate 1 is provided with a first threaded hole 12, and the first threaded hole 12 has two, and the two first threaded holes 12 are distributed at intervals left and right. The upper end of the splint 2 is provided with a second threaded hole 21 that passes through the splint 2 up and down, and the second threaded hole 21 has two, and the two second threaded holes 21 are distributed at intervals left and right and match the intervals of the two first sliding holes 11. The front end of the splint 2 is provided with a second sliding hole 22 that passes through the splint 2 front and back, and the two second sliding holes 22 are distributed at intervals left and right and match the intervals of the two first threaded holes 12. There are two bolts 3, and the bolts 3 can be threadedly connected with the first threaded hole 12 and the second threaded hole 21.

[0027] Furthermore, the bolt 3 includes a bolt rod 31, a pressure plate 32, and a cross plate 33. The bolt rod 31 is threadedly connected to the first threaded hole 12 and the second threaded hole 21. The pressure plate 32 is fixed to the end of the bolt rod 31. The cross plate 33 is vertically fixed to the end of the pressure plate 32 away from the bolt rod 31. It is worth mentioning that the bolt 3 is an integrated structure, which is stable, strong and durable.

[0028] The fluorescent microscope fixing bracket has three usage states. The first is a longitudinal clamping state, which is suitable for longitudinally clamping fixed objects, such as clamping the edge of a table when used at the edge of the table; the second is a transverse clamping state, which is suitable for transversely clamping fixed objects, such as clamping the column of a column-type storage rack when there is a column-type storage rack at the upper end of the table; the third is a horizontal state, which is suitable for placement on any plane.

[0029] When used in the longitudinal clamping state, the bolt rods 31 of the two bolts 3 are respectively passed through the two first sliding holes 11 from top to bottom and are respectively threadedly connected to the two second threaded holes 21, and then the support plate 1 and the clamping plate 2 are respectively placed on the upper and lower sides of the edge of the table board, and then the two cross plates 33 are screwed to tighten the pressure plate 32, the support plate 1, the table board and the clamping plate 2 together in the upper and lower directions. In this way, the bracket is fixed to the edge of the table board. At this time, the fluorescence microscope can be placed on the support plate 1, and the four supporting feet at its lower end are respectively inserted into the four corresponding supporting foot receiving grooves 13. After being inserted, the fluorescence microscope cannot be laterally displaced relative to the support plate 1. Since the support plate 1 is fixed to the table board by clamping, the fluorescence microscope cannot be laterally displaced relative to the table board. In this way, even if the fluorescence microscope is accidentally bumped, it is difficult to move, so that the originally aligned sample position can be prevented from being changed, and the sample will not be deformed or damaged, so that the observation work can be carried out smoothly.

[0030] When used in a horizontal clamping state, the support plate 1 and the clamping plate 2 are placed on the table top and on the front and rear sides of the column. Then, the bolt rods 31 of the two bolts 3 pass through the two second sliding holes 22 from front to back and are threadedly connected to the two first threaded holes 12 respectively. Then, the two horizontal plates 33 are screwed to fasten the pressure plate 32, the clamping plate 2, the column and the support plate 1 together in the front and rear directions. In this way, the bracket is fixed on the column. When the fluorescence microscope is placed on the support plate 1 in this state for use, it is also difficult for the fluorescence microscope to be displaced when it is accidentally hit.

[0031] When used in a flat state, the bolt rods 31 of the two bolts 3 are passed through the two second sliding holes 22 from front to back and are threadedly connected to the two first threaded holes 12 respectively. Then, the two cross plates 33 are screwed to fasten the pressure plate 32, the clamping plate 2 and the support plate 1 together in the front-to-back direction. In this way, the pressure plate 32 and the clamping plate 2 are assembled into a flat-plate-shaped whole. At this time, it can be placed flat on any plane for use. When the fluorescence microscope is placed on the support plate 1 in this state, since the entire bracket has a large contact area with the plane, it can also stabilize the fluorescence microscope to reduce the probability of displacement when it is accidentally hit.

[0032] It is worth mentioning that the flat state occupies a smaller volume, which is conducive to packaging and storage.

[0033] In this embodiment, the first threaded hole 12 passes through the support plate 1 front to back. This arrangement allows the bolts 3 to be installed at both the front and rear ends of the support plate 1, thereby improving ease of use.

[0034] Furthermore, a first cushion 15 and a second cushion 23 are bonded to the lower ends of the support plate 1 and clamping plate 2, respectively. Both cushions have diamond-shaped anti-slip grooves on their lower ends. With this arrangement, when used in a longitudinal clamping position, the first cushion 15 and the second cushion 23 protect the upper and lower ends of the tabletop, respectively, while also increasing the coefficient of friction for a stable clamping relationship. When used in a transverse clamping position or in a flat position, the first cushion 15 and the second cushion 23 increase the coefficient of friction, ensuring a stable placement of the bracket on the tabletop.

[0035] Furthermore, the edges on both sides of the upper ends of the support plate 1 and the clamping plate 2 are rounded to avoid sharp edges that may hurt your hands.

[0036] In summary, the present fluorescent microscope fixing bracket has significant beneficial effects. It is designed to address the problem that existing inverted biological fluorescence microscopes placed on a desktop are prone to movement and damage to samples due to the small contact area. Through the combination of a support plate, a splint and bolts, three usage states can be achieved. In the longitudinal clamping state, it can be fixed on the edge of the table to prevent lateral displacement of the microscope; in the transverse clamping state, it can be fixed on a column, which also ensures the stability of the microscope when it is bumped; in the flat state, it is assembled into a flat-plate-shaped whole and placed on any plane to increase the contact area with the plane. Regardless of the state, it can effectively reduce the probability of the microscope being displaced by accidental collisions, avoid changes in sample position and damage, ensure smooth observation work, provide a reliable fixing solution for the use of fluorescence microscopes, and improve work efficiency and experimental accuracy.
