[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical microscopy imaging technology, specifically a slide holder and slide alignment structure. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, with the development of technology, automated slide carriers have been gradually introduced into the field of optical microscopy, aiming to improve the efficiency and ease of operation of microscopy systems. However, during the automated slide carrier process, slight vibrations during the up-and-down movement of the slide holder can cause the slide to slide out of its predetermined position within the slide holder, potentially damaging the slide. Based on this reason, we have proposed a slide carrier guiding structure. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a slide holder structure for guiding slide alignment, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

Two opposing lower guide slopes are provided on the upper part of the guide plate. The lower guide slopes are located below the upper guide slopes.
[0006] Both the upper and lower guide slopes face the direction of the slides on the slide holder; an adjustment plate is provided on the upper part of the guide plate, the adjustment plate includes two inclined panels, and a pivot is provided in the middle of the two inclined panels, so that the upper and lower inclined panels can be rotatably connected by the pivot.
[0007] Preferably, the adjusting plate is embedded in the guide plate, and a pivot is also provided between the top of the upper inclined panel and the guide plate. The upper inclined panel rotates through the pivot, and the top of the upper inclined panel is restricted by the pivot.
[0008] Preferably, a pivot is also provided at the bottom of the lower inclined panel, and both ends of the pivot are provided with outwardly extending screw heads, and the ends of the screw heads are provided with inwardly extending screw holes; the left and right sides of the guide plate are symmetrically provided with adjustment grooves near the lower inclined panel, and the screw heads are slidably engaged in the adjustment grooves.
[0009] Preferably, a locking bolt is screwed onto the outer side of the screw head. The locking bolt includes a screw shank and a bolt. The bolt is aligned with the screw hole of the screw head. The screw shank is located on the outer side of the guide plate. When locked, the screw shank is in close contact with the outer wall of the guide plate and is fixed by friction with the outer wall of the guide plate.
[0010] Preferably, the adjusting plate is adjusted within the height of the adjusting groove, and the opening and closing angle of the adjusting plate is changed by changing the position of the lower inclined plate in the adjusting groove; the surface of the rotating shaft in the middle of the adjusting plate is parallel to the surface of the upper inclined plate, the width of the lower inclined plate is smaller than the width of the upper inclined plate, and the bottom sides of the upper inclined plate are sandwiched between the top sides of the lower inclined plate.
[0011] Preferably, the upper and lower inclined panels are bent through a central pivot. The two ends of the pivot of the lower inclined panel are provided with outwardly extending screw heads, which slide and engage in the adjustment groove, allowing the lower inclined panel to slide up and down in the adjustment groove. After the lower inclined panel slides to the position, it is locked and fixed using a locking bolt. The bolt of the locking bolt is screwed inward into the screw hole, while the outer screw shank is provided with an annular friction disc. When the locking bolt is screwed in, the friction disc contacts the side wall of the guide plate, and the locking and fixing are completed through friction, while fixing the angle of the adjustment plate.

[0026] Example:
[0027] Please see Figure 1-7 This utility model provides a technical solution for a slide holder and slide alignment structure: including a slide holder 10 and an alignment plate 20;
[0028] Slides 101 are evenly placed on the slide holder 10. A guide plate 20 is provided on one side of the slide holder 10. An upper guide slope 201 is provided on the top of the guide plate 20. Two opposing lower guide slopes 202 are provided on the upper part of the guide plate 20. The lower guide slopes 202 are located below the upper guide slopes 201.
[0029] Both the upper guide slope 201 and the lower guide slope 202 face the direction of the glass slide 101 on the slide holder 10;
[0030] An adjustment plate 30 is provided on the upper part of the guide plate 20. The adjustment plate 30 includes two inclined plates, an upper and a lower one, and a pivot 301 is provided in the middle of the two inclined plates. The upper and lower inclined plates are rotatably connected by the pivot 301.
[0031] The adjusting plate 30 is embedded in the guide plate 20. A rotating shaft 301 is also provided between the top of the upper inclined panel and the guide plate 20. The upper inclined panel rotates through the rotating shaft 301, and the top of the upper inclined panel is restricted by the rotating shaft 301.
[0032] A pivot 301 is also provided at the bottom of the lower inclined panel. Both ends of the pivot 301 are provided with outwardly extending screw heads 302. The ends of the screw heads 302 are provided with inwardly extending screw holes. Adjustment grooves 304 are symmetrically provided on the left and right sides of the guide plate 20 near the lower inclined panel. The screw heads 302 are slidably engaged in the adjustment grooves 304.
[0033] A locking bolt 303 is screwed onto the outer side of the screw head 302. The locking bolt 303 includes a screw shank and a bolt. The bolt is inwardly aligned with the screw hole of the screw head 302. The screw shank is located on the outer side of the guide plate 20. When locked, the screw shank is in close contact with the outer wall of the guide plate 20 and is fixed by friction with the outer wall of the guide plate 20.
[0034] The adjusting plate 30 is adjusted within the height of the adjusting groove 304. The opening and closing angle of the adjusting plate 30 is changed by changing the position of the lower inclined panel in the adjusting groove 304.
[0035] The surface of the rotating shaft 301 in the middle of the adjusting plate 30 is parallel to the surface of the upper inclined plate. The width of the lower inclined plate is smaller than the width of the upper inclined plate. The bottom sides of the upper inclined plate are sandwiched between the top sides of the lower inclined plate.
[0036] The implementation method of this scheme is as follows: a guide plate 20 is set on the side of the slide 101 on the slide holder 10. The guide plate 20 has an upper guide slope 201 and a lower guide slope 202. The upper guide slope 201 of the guide plate 20 can generate a pushing force after contact, which will push the slide 101 that has slid out into the slide holder 10.
[0037] The slide holder 10 containing the slide 101 generally moves from bottom to top. At this time, the lower guide slope 202 of the guide plate 20 will push the slide 101 that has slid out into the slide holder 10 due to the contact thrust. Under the contact thrust of the upper guide slope 201 and the lower guide slope 202, the slide 101 is kept in the predetermined position area of the slide holder 10, which plays a safe protection role for the slide 101 and is very convenient.
[0038] This solution preferably uses an adjustable inclined panel. The principle is as follows: the upper and lower inclined panels are bent through the middle pivot 301. The pivot 301 of the lower inclined panel has outwardly extending screw heads 302 at both ends. The screw heads 302 slide and engage in the adjustment groove 304, allowing the lower inclined panel to slide up and down in the adjustment groove 304. After the lower inclined panel slides to the position, it is locked and fixed using a locking bolt 303. The bolt of the locking bolt 303 is screwed inward into the screw hole, while the outer screw shank is provided with an annular friction disc. When the locking bolt 303 is screwed in, the friction disc contacts the side wall of the guide plate 20, and the locking and fixing is completed through friction. At the same time, the angle of the adjustment plate 30 is fixed, and the angle of the guide plate can be flexibly adjusted by adjusting the adjustment plate 30.
