DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] In order to facilitate the understanding of the utility model, the device of the utility model will be described more fully below with reference to the relevant drawings. The drawings show the embodiments of the device. However, the device can be realized in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the disclosure of the utility model more thorough and comprehensive.

[0026] In the description of the utility model, it should be pointed out that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "connection", "setting" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixedly connected, set, or it can be detachably connected, set, or integrally connected, set. For ordinary skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] As Figures 1-3 The embodiment provides a full-automatic liquid-based thin layer cell tablet machine, which comprises a tablet machine body 1, and it should be noted that the tablet machine body 1 is same as a conventional full-automatic cell tablet machine, comprising a sample processing unit, a smearing unit, a fixing unit, a dyeing unit, a control system, a touch screen, a conveying system and a cleaning unit, so as to realize the whole tablet process, from sample processing to smearing, fixing and dyeing, which are all automatically completed, and the error of manual operation is reduced, and here, excessive details are not described.

[0029] The open end 5 of the tablet machine body 1 is hingedly connected with a transparent opening and closing plate 2, and a sealing mechanism for increasing the sealing performance is arranged between the opening and closing plate 2 and the open end 5. The sealing mechanism comprises an electromagnet 4 at the bottom of the opening and closing plate 2 and a bite pad 3 arranged on the side of the open end 5. In detail, the bite pad 3 is made of silicone rubber (having the characteristics of high temperature resistance and moisture resistance) and is a U-shaped opening matching the edge of the opening and closing plate 2. The outside height of the U-shaped opening is greater than the inside height. When the open end 5 is sealed by the opening and closing plate 2, the two ends of the opening and closing plate 2 can be clamped into the inside of the bite pad 3. The design of different heights can prevent the inside from being blocked when inserted, and the opening and closing plate 2 is easier to insert. The side of the open end 5 in contact with the electromagnet 4 is embedded with an iron block for magnetic attraction. The outer ring of the electromagnet 4 is wrapped with a rubber ring (which can also be made of silicone rubber). The height of the rubber ring is greater than the height of the electromagnet 4. When the electromagnet 4 is electrified, it can be magnetically attracted to the iron block, increasing the stability of the sealing state of the opening and closing plate 2. At the same time, the magnetic attraction compresses the rubber ring to deform, filling and sealing the gap of the open end.

[0030] The liquid taking gun 6 in the tablet machine body 1 comprises a vacuum pump, a gun body 61 and a needle tube 62. The vacuum pump installed on the top of the gun body 61 provides suction pressure, the gun body 61 is communicated with the needle tube 62 through a one-way valve 63, and the one-way valve 63 can enter the inside of the gun body 61 but cannot output from it, ensuring that the cell suspension can be output from the mixing mechanism. The inner bottom wall of the needle tube 62 is embedded with a sealing bottom plate 64, and a plurality of discharge holes 65 in the form of a ring array are arranged on the sealing bottom plate 64 to discharge the cell suspension in the inside to the slide. It should be noted that the direction of the discharge hole 65 should be inclined towards the center of the sealing bottom plate 64 to ensure that the discharge hole 65 is in the center of the slide. The top end of the one-way valve 63 penetrates the sealing bottom plate 64 and is provided with an input pipe 66. The input pipe 66 is provided with a mixing mechanism. The mixing mechanism comprises a plurality of communication holes 69 arranged on the surface of the input pipe 66. When the cell suspension in the gun body 61 is mixed and suctioned, the cell suspension is discharged and suctioned from each communication hole 69, which is equivalent to increasing the partition in the gun body 61 to block the cell suspension and improve the mixing efficiency. The communication hole 69 at the bottom end is at the same horizontal position as the top end of the one-way valve 63, which can prevent the residual cell suspension in the input pipe 66 from being discharged.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] As Figures 4-5The difference from the above embodiment 1 is that the mixing mechanism is a plurality of blades 67 fixed on the outer surface of the input pipe 66, the input pipe 66 is connected with the one-way valve 63 through a bearing (a sealing ring should be added), and the inner wall of the gun body 61 is fixed with a slope guide plate 68, the cell suspension in the gun body 61 is moved up and down by the suction of the vacuum pump, at this time, the up and down end flow guiding (i.e. the starting and ending of the water column formed by the cell suspension) is carried out through the slope guide plate 68 of the side wall, the forward rotation or reverse rotation of the blade 67 with a specific curved surface is driven (such as the curved surface of the fan blade, which can better guide the water flow, so that the blade 67 can be pushed to rotate through the curved surface when the water flow passes through), so that the mixing efficiency of the cell suspension is improved.

[0033] It should be noted that the structure of the utility model can be realized in many different forms, and is not limited to the embodiments, and any equivalent transformation made by those skilled in the art using the contents of the utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect application in other related technical fields, such as other article loading and unloading, are all included in the protection scope of the utility model.
