Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of glass slide fixing equipment, and in particular relates to a detachable wave plate basket based on mechanical arm grasping. Background Art

[0002] Slide baskets consist of multiple components, including a frame, clamping devices, and fixtures. Typically, when using slide baskets for subsequent reactions, operators need to manually remove, place, and handle them. This process is not only time-consuming but also easily affected by the operator's skill level and experience, resulting in inconsistent operational results. These shortcomings are primarily related to traditional laboratory operating procedures, where many experiments rely on manual intervention and are constrained by equipment design and standardization. Furthermore, this reliance on manual operation affects the repeatability and reproducibility of experiments, increasing the uncertainty of experimental results.

[0003] To address this issue, some laboratories have attempted to introduce automated equipment, such as automated slide handlers and robotic arms, to reduce manual intervention and improve operational efficiency. However, the implementation of these methods presents a significant challenge for compatibility with existing equipment. Many laboratories, lacking automated equipment, may still rely on manual operation. Therefore, we aimed to design a wave plate basket with a novel structure to address this issue.

[0025] The auxiliary grasping assembly 200 includes a cylinder 210, a connecting plate 220 and a pillar 230. The lower end of the cylinder 210 is integrally arranged in the middle of the upper surface of the connecting plate 220. The front and rear sides of the connecting plate 220 are respectively fixedly connected to the upper ends of the two pillars 230 by hexagonal screws. The lower ends of the four pillars 230 are respectively fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the splint 110.

[0026] See also Figures 1 to 4 Frame 1 111 has a plurality of equally spaced vertical plates 1 disposed in the front-to-back direction. Frame 1 111 has a plurality of equally spaced through grooves 113 extending downwardly through the left and right ends thereof. In actual use, a plurality of waist holes 1 are formed through the front and rear sides of the upper surface of frame 1 111, respectively. Furthermore, a plurality of waist holes 2 are formed through the front and rear sides of the upper surface of frame 2 121. The plurality of waist holes 1 match the plurality of waist holes 2 in distribution, i.e., a waist hole 1 is disposed directly above each waist hole 2. The arrangement of the plurality of waist holes 1 and the plurality of waist holes 2 ensures mechanical strength and serves to guide the flow of the reaction liquid when the entire slide basket body 100 enters and exits the reaction liquid, thereby preventing splashing.

[0027] The left and right sides of each vertical plate 1 respectively penetrate downward to form multiple positioning grooves distributed at equal intervals. The number, size, structure and distribution position of the positioning grooves on the same side match the number, size, structure and distribution position of the through grooves 113 inside the left and right ends of the frame 111.

[0028] A plurality of vertical plates 2 are arranged inside the frame 2 121 in the front-to-back direction, and a vertical plate 1 is arranged on the upper side of the middle of every two vertical plates 2. The upper surface of each vertical plate 2 is concave downward to form a plurality of grooves 123 distributed at equal intervals, and the width of the grooves 123 is the same as the width of the positioning groove.

[0029] The left inner wall and the right inner wall of frame 2 121 are both recessed to form multiple equally spaced limit grooves. The structure, width, number and distribution position of the multiple limit grooves match the structure, width, number and distribution position of the through groove 113, and the depth of the through groove 113 is greater than the depth of the limit groove.

[0030] As a first embodiment of the present invention, by setting up a glass slide basket body 100, in actual use, a vertical plate 1 is set inside the clamping plate 110, and the positioning grooves provided on the vertical plate cooperate with the through grooves 113 on the left inner wall and the right inner wall of the frame 111, which can guide and limit the two sides of the vertically placed glass slides, and the vertical plate 2 is set inside the clamping plate 120, and the grooves 123 on the vertical plate 2 cooperate with the limiting grooves on the left inner wall and the right inner wall of the frame 2 121, which can position the lower end of the vertically placed glass slides. The glass slide basket body 100 is used to fix the glass slides, which are grabbed by an external robot and reacted in various reaction liquids, meeting various requirements for the inertness of the reaction liquid, firmly fixing the glass slides, not accumulating liquid, and preventing splashing when entering the reaction liquid.

[0031] See also Figures 1 to 4 The middle part of the connecting plate 220 located inside the cylinder 210 penetrates downward to form four through holes 221 distributed in a rectangular structure. A support leg plate is respectively provided on the left front side, the front side, the left rear side and the right rear side of the connecting plate 220.

The auxiliary grabbing assembly 200 is connected to the glass slide basket body 100 through the support 230 thereon, and the support 230 is connected to the connecting plate 220 through the hexagon socket screw, which makes it easy to disassemble the auxiliary grabbing assembly 200 from the glass slide basket body 100. The glass slide basket body 100 is formed by combining the clamping plate 110 and the clamping plate 2 120, which has a relatively quick disassembly structure, which makes the entire device structure have high disassembly flexibility and is convenient for subsequent use and maintenance. In actual use, the auxiliary grabbing assembly 200 is quickly connected to the external robot through the multiple through holes 221 on the connecting plate 220. The external robot is movably connected to the auxiliary grabbing assembly 200 through the clamping claws and the multiple through holes 221, thereby driving the glass slide basket body 100, facilitating the rapid extraction of the lower glass slide basket body 100 and stably fixing it to avoid shaking during movement. When the glass slide basket body 100 needs to be lowered, the external robot releases the clamping claws on the connecting plate 220, thereby achieving rapid release of the glass slide basket body 100.
