DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] In order to further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by the utility model, the utility model will be further described below in combination with embodiments and drawings. It can be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the utility model, and not limit the utility model.

[0025] As shown in the figure, Figures 1-6 The utility model provides a kind of elastic block of liquid cover glass, and elastic block is composed of block mounting seat 1, block 2, pin 3 and torsion spring 4, block mounting seat 1 is equipped with the block slot 13 of consistent quantity with block 2, and one end of block 2 and torsion spring 4 are respectively connected in block slot 13 by pin 3 shaft, limit block is arranged in block slot 13, one side of block 2 touches limit block, and the other side touches torsion spring 4, and limit block limits the inclination angle of block 2, and the inclination angle meets when returning, the face of block 2 towards cover plate 5 is parallel to the inclined surface 51 (inclined surface of cover plate 5 both sides tail) of cover plate 5 tail portion in waste liquid.

[0026] Specifically, as shown in the figure, Figure 1 Two block slots 13 are equipped in block mounting seat 1, and each block slot 13 corresponds two pins 3, a block 2 and a torsion spring 4, one pin shaft connects block 2, and the other pin shaft connects torsion spring 4. As shown in the figure, Figure 3 The inner side of block 2 is provided with sliding slot 23, and one straight rod of torsion spring 4 is clamped in sliding slot 23, and the other straight rod of torsion spring 4 touches the inner wall of block mounting seat 1;Limit block is arranged at the bottom of block slot 13, and limit block touches the side of block 2 away from torsion spring 4, and limit block and torsion spring 4 jointly limit the rotation range of block 2.

[0027] As shown in the figure, Figures 1-2 The block 2 of each elastic block is provided with two blocks, and the block close to the head of cover plate 5 is the first block 21, and the block close to the tail of cover plate is the second block 22, as shown in the figure, Figure 2 Limit block includes first limit block 11 and second limit block 12, and first limit block 11 is used to limit the inclination angle of first block 21, and second limit block 12 is used to limit the inclination angle of second block 22, and the inclination angle of both is consistent, to provide stable pressure.

[0028] In full-automatic device for tissue section repair and dyeing, as shown in the figure, Figure 4 Usually two elastic blocks are a group, for pressing the two sides of a cover plate 5. And the head of cover plate 5 (locatedFigures 4-5 The left side of the direction) is clamped in the U-shaped groove of the push-pull plate, and a supporting force F is provided to the cover plate 5 in the direction of gravity, so that the lifting, pulling and falling operations can be performed, but since the upper end of the U-shaped groove is open, the head of the cover plate 5 is not limited to be popped up from the upper end opening. The inclination angle of the pressing block 2 in the application satisfies that when the waste liquid is returned (at this time, the cover plate 5 is in the lifted state), the face of the pressing block 2 towards the cover plate 5 is parallel to the inclined surface 51 of the tail of the cover plate 5. As shown in Figure 6 At this time, the angle γ of the pressing block 2 relative to the slide glass is the sum of the angle α of the inclined surface 51 and the angle β of the cover plate 5 being lifted when the waste liquid is discharged. That is, γ = α + β. As shown in Figures 5-6 When the cover plate 5 is pushed back to discharge the liquid, the face of the pressing block 2 towards the side of the cover plate 5 is in a parallel state with the inclined surface 51, at this time, the pressing block 2 only contacts the inclined surface 51, but does not provide a downward pressure, until the end arc R of the pressing block 2 contacts the inflection point A of the upper surface of the cover plate 5 and the inclined surface 51, at this time, the pressing block 2 provides a downward pressure to the cover plate 5, and the contact point A at this time is located on the left side of the fulcrum O (in the direction of the head of the cover plate), which is the point of contact between the cover plate 5 and the slide glass when the cover plate 5 is lifted. As shown in Figure 7 As shown in the force analysis, the head of the cover plate 5 is clamped in the U-shaped groove of the push-pull plate, the upper end of the U-shaped groove is open, the U-shaped groove provides an upward supporting force F to the cover plate 5 in the direction of gravity, the pressing block 2 provides a downward pressure at the inflection point A of the inclined surface 51, and the supporting force F and the pressure at A are located on the same side of the fulcrum O, thereby avoiding the lever phenomenon, and the cover plate 5 will not pop up. In the existing pressing block structure, during the waste discharge return process, the point of providing the downward pressure is located on the right side of the fulcrum O by first touching the inclined surface, according to the lever principle, the head of the cover plate 5 in the U-shaped groove will be pried up, and the phenomenon of the cover plate 5 popping up will occur.

[0029] As shown in Figure 2 and 6 The end of the pressing block 2 is a smooth arc R. The arc height H of the arc R determines the amount of downward pressure of the pressing block 2, and the downward pressure is preferably 0.5-1.5 mm. Within this range, the elastic force provided by the torsion spring 4 is moderate, and if it is greater than 1.5 mm, the stroke height of the torsion spring 4 will be affected, so as to avoid rigid connection and damage to the cover plate 5.

[0030] After repeated operations for many times (>100 times), the phenomenon of the cover plate 5 popping up of the elastic pressing block of the liquid cover glass in this embodiment is 0 times, which completely solves the phenomenon of the cover plate 5 popping up, guarantees the smooth progress of the experiment, and ensures the accuracy of the experimental results.

[0031] The above merely illustrates the embodiments of the present application, and does not limit the patent scope of the present application, and any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation, or direct or indirect application in other related technical fields, which are made according to the content of the present application specification and drawings, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
