In addition, some aspects disclosed in the present invention can be used alone or in any appropriate combination with other aspects disclosed in the present invention.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] like Figure 1-4 FIG. 1 is a first embodiment of the present invention, which provides a cell preparation device, comprising a box body 1, a movable cover 2 hingedly connected to the top of the box body 1, a placement plate 3 fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the box body 1, a placement slot 4 fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the movable cover 2, a limit frame 5 fixedly connected to the top of the placement plate 3 and the top of the inner cavity of the placement slot 4, and a fixing mechanism 6 provided in the inner cavity of the movable cover 2;

[0025] The fixing mechanism 6 includes a clamping plate 601, which is arranged in the inner cavity of the upper end limit frame 5 and is slidably connected to the inner cavity. The left side of the clamping plate 601 is fixedly connected to a rubber pad 602. The top of the movable cover 2 is fixedly connected to a connecting pipe 603, the top of the connecting pipe 603 is fixedly connected to an airbag 604, and the bottom of the connecting pipe 603 passes through the inner cavity of the movable cover 2 and is fixedly connected to a neoprene membrane 605.

[0026] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the box body 1 and the movable cover 2 are used to support and fix the internal components so that the device can be in a sealed state when not in use to prevent the internal components from being contaminated by dust. The placement plate 3 and the placement groove 4 are used to place the slides. The limit frame 5 can limit the slides to ensure that the upper and lower slides are located on the same vertical plane so that the two slides can be merged smoothly. The fixing mechanism 6 can fix the slide placed inside the movable cover 2 to prevent it from falling off from the inside of the placement groove 4 during the closing process of the movable cover 2. At the same time, since the elastic coefficient of the spring 609 is small and the material of the rubber pad 602 is soft, it can prevent the slide from being damaged by squeezing, thereby ensuring that the preparation process proceeds smoothly.

[0027] Example 2

[0028] Reference Figure 1-3 , which is the second embodiment of the present utility model, and this embodiment is based on the previous embodiment.

[0029] In this embodiment, a receiving groove 606 is opened on the right side of the bottom of the movable cover 2. A push block 607 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the receiving groove 606. A connecting column 608 is fixedly connected between the clamping plate 601 and the push block 607.

[0030] A spring 609 is provided on the surface of the connecting column 608 and located in the inner cavity of the placement groove 4 . The left end of the spring 609 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 601 , and the right end of the spring 609 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the placement groove 4 .

[0031] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the glass slide placed inside the lower limit frame 5 needs to have its left side fit with the inner wall of the lower limit frame 5. By pulling the push block 607 to the right, the connecting column 608 can be cooperated with to drive the clamping plate 601 to move to the right in the inner cavity of the placement slot 4. The clamping plate 601 will squeeze the connecting column 608 when moving and cause the connecting column 608 to deform. After the glass slide is placed inside the upper limit frame 5, the push block 607 is released. At this time, the pressure on the spring 609 disappears and resets. The reset elastic force of the spring 609 can drive The clamping plate 601 is reset, causing it to exert pressure to the left on the glass slide, and causing its left side to contact the inner wall of the upper limit frame 5, ensuring that the upper and lower glass slides are located on the same vertical plane. After closing the movable cover 2, the airbag 604 is squeezed, and the gas inside the airbag 604 is transported to the inside of the neoprene rubber membrane 605 through the connecting tube 603, causing it to expand. After the expansion of the neoprene rubber membrane 605, it can squeeze the upper glass slide out from the inside of the upper limit frame 5 and make it fit with the lower glass slide, thereby completing the preparation operation.

[0032] Example 3

[0033] Reference Figure 2-4, which is the third embodiment of the present utility model, is based on the first two embodiments.

[0034] In this embodiment, the two limiting frames 5 are symmetrically positioned, and a backing plate 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the movable cover 2 .

[0035] The top of the box body 1 and the bottom of the movable cover 2 are both fixedly connected with magnets 8 . The two magnets 8 have opposite magnetic properties and are magnetically connected.

[0036] Limiting grooves 9 are provided on the front and back sides of the inner cavity of the upper limit frame 5, and the front and back sides of the clamping plate 601 are fixedly connected to the limiting blocks 10. One side of the limiting block 10 extends to the inner cavity of the limiting groove 9 and is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the limiting groove 9.

[0037] like Figure 2-4 As shown, the two magnets 8 cooperate to fix the box body 1 and the movable cover 2 , and the limiting groove 9 and the limiting block 10 cooperate to limit the clamping plate 601 .

[0038] When in use, first open the box body 1 and the movable cover 2, put the slide into the lower limit frame 5, and make its left side fit with the inner wall of the lower limit frame 5, then pull the push block 607 to the right to cooperate with the connecting column 608 to drive the clamping plate 601 to move to the right in the inner cavity of the placement groove 4, and the clamping plate 601 will squeeze the connecting column 608 when moving and cause the connecting column 608 to deform, and then put the slide into the upper limit frame 5. After the slide is placed in the upper limit frame 5, release the push block 607, and the pressure on the spring 609 disappears and resets. The reset force of the spring 609 can drive the clamping plate 601 to reset, causing it to exert pressure to the left on the glass slide and causing its left side to contact the inner wall of the upper limit frame 5, ensuring that the upper and lower glass slides are located on the same vertical plane. The box body 1 and the movable cover 2 are then closed. After closing, the airbag 604 is squeezed, and the gas inside the airbag 604 is transported to the inside of the neoprene rubber membrane 605 through the connecting tube 603, causing it to expand. After the neoprene rubber membrane 605 expands, it can squeeze the upper glass slide out from the inside of the upper limit frame 5 and make it fit with the lower glass slide, thereby completing the film making operation.
