Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to a high-throughput slide rack loading pre-processing device. Background Art

[0002] Slide sample testing is a commonly used test item in modern medicine. After the cell sample is prepared and stained, it enters the microscope scanner for slide scanning. Currently, slide scanning is mostly done manually, which is relatively inefficient. In addition, the sample may also contain multiple pathogens. Manual operation increases the risk of infection for the operator. Currently, there are also devices for automatically scanning glass slides, but they can only scan a small number of glass slides at a time, and the glass slides need to be replaced frequently. In addition, due to the complex structure, the glass slide grabbing device is relatively slow, which affects the efficiency of scanning and detection. For example, the invention patent with publication number CN111272659A discloses a fully automatic tuberculosis microscopic scanning analyzer, which grabs the glass slides for scanning and grabs and scans multiple glass slides. Later, some scanners capable of scanning glass slides in large quantities appeared, such as the invention patent with publication number CN112965233A, which discloses a microscopic scanner that can automatically load glass slides in batches. It can load glass slides in batches, thereby improving the efficiency of glass slide scanning. However, its glass slide loading method is also to clip out the glass slides in the glass slide box one by one. In actual use, there is still the problem of low glass slide loading efficiency.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the high-throughput slide rack loading pre-processing device of the present invention includes a rack 1, a slide rack storage box 2 and a slide rack pulling mechanism 3.

[0022] The frame 1 is the support base of the entire device and is firmly placed in the working area. A slide rack storage box 2 is placed in the frame 1. A plurality of slide racks 21 are arranged at regular intervals inside the frame 1, and each slide rack 21 is neatly placed with a plurality of slides 22 to be scanned.

[0023] The slide rack pulling mechanism 3 is a key component of the device. It is arranged on one side of the slide rack storage box 2 and includes a first moving mechanism 31 and a gripping mechanism 32 .

[0024] like Figure 3 As shown, the first moving mechanism 31 is responsible for driving the gripping mechanism 32 to move laterally along the frame 1 so as to accurately locate each slide rack 21 in the slide rack storage box 2. The first moving mechanism 31 includes a first support plate 311, a first guide rail 312, a first motor 313, a first slider 314, and a first lead screw 315. The first motor 313 drives the first lead screw 315 to rotate, thereby driving the first slider 314 to move precisely along the first guide rail 312.

[0025] Figure 4 As shown, the grabbing mechanism 32 is connected to the first moving mechanism 31 through the first slider 314. The grabbing mechanism 32 includes a second moving mechanism 321, a hook 322 and a slide rack placement plate 323. The detailed structure of the second moving mechanism 321 is shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, it includes a second support plate 3211, a second guide rail 3212, a second motor 3213, a second slider 3214 and a second lead screw 3215. The second motor 3213 controls the second slider 3214 to move longitudinally along the second guide rail 3212 by driving the second lead screw 3215 to rotate.

[0026] Figure 4 As shown, the hook 322 is the core component of the grabbing mechanism 32, and the hook 322 comprises a first mounting plate 3221, a second mounting plate 3222 and a hook body 3223. Figure 4 As shown, the first mounting plate 3221 is fixedly connected to the second slider 3214 and can move with the second slider 3214. The second mounting plate 3222 is installed perpendicular to the first mounting plate 3221, and the hook 3223 is fixed to the end of the second mounting plate 3222. The hook 3223 is designed to match the engaging groove 211 on the slide rack 21 to achieve a stable grasping action.

[0027] Working principle:

[0028] When a slide rack 21 needs to be removed, the first motor 313 first drives the first moving mechanism 31, moving the gripping mechanism 32 to the front of the desired slide rack 21. Subsequently, the second motor 3213 is activated, driving the hook 322 longitudinally via the second moving mechanism 321 until the hook 3223 aligns with and engages the engaging slot 211 of the slide rack 21. The second motor 3213 then reverses, and the second moving mechanism 321 smoothly pulls the slide rack 21 out of the slide rack storage box 2 and places it on the slide rack placement plate 323. The slide rack placement plate 323 is equipped with a through slot 3231 and elastic engaging tabs 3232 to ensure stable placement of the slide rack 21. Once the slide rack is removed, it facilitates subsequent slide scanning by other equipment.

[0029] Through the above design, the utility model realizes the rapid and accurate grasping and placement of the slide rack, and significantly improves the loading efficiency of the slides before scanning.

[0030] Obviously, the embodiments described are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
