A base column assembly is provided on the side away from the XY moving platform; a Z-axis module 213 is provided on the top of the base column assembly, and an optical magnification adjustment device 215 is connected to one end of the base column assembly; a microscope rotation device 216 is provided on one side of the optical magnification adjustment device 215, and the three-dimensional microscope 217 is connected to the bottom of the microscope rotation device 216; when the remotely controlled automatic microscope is started, the control component 1 controls or remotely controls the X-axis horizontal displacement module 204 and the Y-axis horizontal displacement module to control the movement of the XY moving platform, the control component 1 controls or remotely controls the Z-axis module 213 to control the up and down movement of the three-dimensional microscope 217, and the control component 1 controls or remotely controls the optical magnification adjustment device 215 to control the magnification of the three-dimensional microscope 217.

[0046] The following will further describe a remotely controlled automated microscope in this exemplary embodiment.

[0047] In one embodiment of this application, the bottom of the XY mobile platform is provided with a fixed base 205; the area of ​​the fixed base 205 is larger than the bottom surface area of ​​the XY mobile platform. The fixed base 205 is used to lay the device flat on a table.

[0048] In one embodiment of this application, the fixing base 205 is provided with a wire outlet clamp 207 for fixing the wire; the wire outlet clamp 207 is wavy. This wavy design can better clamp the wire, preventing the wire from loosening or falling off, and can also adapt to wires of different diameters, providing a more stable fixing effect. The wavy shape can also increase the friction between the wire outlet clamp 207 and the wire, further improving the fixing effect.

[0049] In one embodiment of this application, the XY moving platform is provided with the planar bottom light source 203, the X-axis horizontal displacement module 204 is provided on one side of the XY moving platform, and the Y-axis horizontal displacement module is provided on the other side of the XY moving platform. The X-axis horizontal displacement module 204 and the Y-axis horizontal displacement module are arranged perpendicularly.

[0050] In one specific embodiment, in order to better align the sample 301 with the focusing axis of the 3D microscope 217 and to allow it to rotate freely around the axis of the 3D microscope 217, ensuring that the sample 301 and the 3D microscope 217 are coaxial, the bottom platform is designed as an XY moving platform, which can realize single movement along the X-axis, single movement along the Y-axis, and comprehensive linkage of X and Y axes. The X-axis horizontal displacement module 204 consists of an X-axis stepper motor, a ball screw, a guide rail, a sensor, and a serial port connector. The Y-axis horizontal displacement module is composed of a Y-axis stepper motor, a ball screw, a guide rail, a sensor, a serial port connector, and related connecting and fixing plates.

[0051] As an example, the XY moving platform integrates a planar bottom light source 203. One side of the platform is equipped with an X-axis horizontal displacement module 204, while the other side is equipped with a Y-axis horizontal displacement module. These two modules are arranged vertically, enabling the platform to perform precise positioning and movement on a two-dimensional plane. The X-axis horizontal displacement module 204 controls the platform's movement along the horizontal X-axis, while the Y-axis horizontal displacement module controls the displacement along the vertical Y-axis. This structural design allows the XY moving platform to move independently or synchronously in two mutually perpendicular directions, thereby achieving precise positioning of any point on the working surface.

[0052] In one embodiment of this application, a planar bottom light source 203 fixing plate is provided between the XY moving platform and the planar bottom light source 203. The main function of this fixing plate is to ensure that the planar bottom light source 203 is securely mounted on the XY moving platform, thereby maintaining the stability and positional accuracy of the light source when the platform moves. The design of the planar bottom light source 203 fixing plate takes into account the precise alignment between the light source and the moving platform, as well as the protection of the light source during the entire movement process, avoiding displacement or damage to the light source due to vibration or displacement. This structural design helps to improve the stability and reliability of the entire system, ensuring that the planar bottom light source 203 can provide uniform and stable illumination during precision operation or testing.

[0053] In one embodiment of this application, the X-axis horizontal displacement module 204 is provided with a base column assembly on the side away from the XY moving platform. The base column assembly includes an upper base column 211, a lower base column 206, and a microscope connecting seat 212. The lower base column 206 is connected to the microscope connecting seat 212 through the upper base column assembly. The lower base column 206 is located on the side of the X-axis horizontal displacement module 204 away from the XY moving platform. One end of the microscope connecting seat 212 is connected to the three-dimensional microscope 217.

[0054] In one specific embodiment, a base column assembly is provided on the side of the X-axis horizontal displacement module 204 away from the XY moving platform. This base column assembly consists of an upper base column 211, a lower base column 206, and a microscope connecting seat 212. The lower base column 206 is connected to the microscope connecting seat 212 via the upper base column 211, and the lower base column 206 is positioned on the side of the X-axis horizontal displacement module 204 away from the XY moving platform. One end of the microscope connecting seat 212 is connected to a three-dimensional microscope 217. This design allows the three-dimensional microscope 217 to be stably mounted on the base column assembly while maintaining a stable relative position with the XY moving platform. This structure not only ensures precise alignment and stability of the microscope during operation but also facilitates precise measurement and observation in three-dimensional space. This configuration enables high-precision three-dimensional imaging and analysis of the sample 301. A high-definition camera 214 is provided on the top of the three-dimensional microscope 217.

[0055] In one embodiment of this application, a Z-axis module 213 is provided on the top of the base column assembly, and an optical magnification adjustment device 215 is connected to one end of the base column assembly. The Z-axis module 213 is responsible for controlling the precise movement in the vertical Z-axis direction to achieve focusing or height adjustment of the sample 301. Simultaneously, the optical magnification adjustment device 215 is connected to one end of the base column assembly, which is used to adjust the optical magnification of the microscope to adapt to the observation needs of samples 301 of different sizes. The combination of the Z-axis module 213 and the optical magnification adjustment device 215 enables the system to achieve high-precision positioning and observation in three-dimensional space, while providing flexible magnification adjustment functions to meet diverse experimental or detection needs. This design further enhances the system's versatility and ease of operation.

[0057] In one embodiment of this application, the lower base column 206 is provided with an annular light source 208 assembly, which includes an annular light source 208, an annular light source mounting base 209, and an annular light source 208 fixing nut; the annular light source mounting base 209 and the annular light source 208 are connected by the annular light source 208 fixing nut, and a preset interval is provided between the annular light source 208 and the bottom of the three-dimensional microscope 217.

[0058] In one specific embodiment, a ring light source 208 and a flat bottom light source 203 are used together for the light source, mainly to facilitate various application scenarios. The ring light source 208 has the functions of uniform illumination, reducing shadows, enhancing details, eliminating reflections, and improving color reproduction, and is suitable for macro photography. The flat bottom light source 203 has the functions of uniform background illumination, highlighting outlines, reducing shadows, enhancing details of transparent objects, high-contrast imaging, and is suitable for large-area illumination, simplifying post-processing.

[0059] In one embodiment of this application, the optical magnification adjustment device 215 is provided with the microscope rotation device 216 on one side, and the bottom of the microscope rotation device 216 is connected to the three-dimensional microscope 217; the control component 1 controls or remotely controls the optical magnification adjustment device 215 to control the magnification of the three-dimensional microscope 217.

[0060] In one specific embodiment, the 3D microscope 217 features a motorized 3D optical lens, a C-port for connecting a CMOS camera, and a platform for controlling light source intensity, rotation speed, steering, and magnification. Specifically, it is a 4K automatic 3D microscope 217. A small gear is mounted on a micro-motor shaft, which drives a large gear on the lens, enabling the micro-motor to rotate and thus the lens to rotate. It provides a clear 3D perspective, high-speed imaging (60 frames per second), and functions for taking photos, recording videos, storing measurements, and exporting data. It is operated using a wireless mouse 101. It is ideal for professional observation and inspection of the 3D appearance of products. The all-in-one design is space-saving, easy to operate, and user-friendly. This 4K 3D lens features a zoom function with automatic magnification adjustment: a small gear on a micro-motor shaft drives a large gear on the zoom axis, allowing for free switching between large and small magnifications, with adjustable scale intervals. A gigabit Ethernet interface is provided for connecting to a computer or barcode scanner.

[0061] As an example, the optical magnification adjustment device 215 is used to adjust the magnification of the microscope, typically achieved by changing the position or combination of lenses in the optical path. The microscope rotation device 216 enables the microscope to rotate, facilitating observation of the sample 301 from different angles, and is particularly suitable for the three-dimensional microscope 217. Its bottom is connected to the three-dimensional microscope 217 to ensure stability during rotation. Through the coordinated operation of the optical magnification adjustment device 215 and the microscope rotation device 216, combined with the precise adjustment of the control component 1, this system achieves efficient operation of the three-dimensional microscope 217, suitable for various scenarios requiring high-precision three-dimensional observation.

[0062] In one embodiment of this application, when the remotely controlled automatic microscope is started, the control component 1 controls or remotely controls the X-axis horizontal displacement module 204 and the Y-axis horizontal displacement module to control the movement of the XY moving platform, the control component 1 controls or remotely controls the Z-axis module 213 to control the vertical movement of the three-dimensional microscope 217, and the control component 1 controls or remotely controls the optical magnification adjustment device 215 to control the magnification of the three-dimensional microscope 217.

[0063] In one specific embodiment, the remotely controlled automatic microscope is activated, and the control component 1 begins operation, initializing each module. Horizontal movement is achieved by the electric stage controller controlling or remotely controlling the X-axis and Y-axis horizontal displacement modules, moving the XY movement platform on the horizontal plane to position the sample 301. Vertical movement is achieved by the electric stage controller controlling or remotely controlling the Z-axis module 213, moving the three-dimensional microscope 217 up and down to adjust the focal length or observe the sample 301 at different depths. Magnification adjustment is achieved by the microscope control box controlling or remotely controlling the optical magnification adjustment device 215 to adjust the microscope's magnification to obtain a clear image. Upon completion of the operation, the control component 1 completes the observation and analysis of the sample 301 according to a preset program or user instructions.

[0064] In one embodiment of this application, the control component 1 includes a computer component, a microscope control box, and an electric displacement stage controller for controlling the movement of the XY moving platform; the computer component is electrically connected to the microscope module 2, the microscope control box, and the electric displacement stage controller.

[0065] As an example, the computer components include a high-definition display 105, a wireless mouse 101, and a wireless keyboard 106. A housing 201 is provided on the outside of the ring light source 208 assembly; the optical magnification adjustment device 215, the microscope rotation device 216, and the three-dimensional microscope 217 are all housed within the housing 201. One end of the ring light source mounting base 209 engages with the lower base column 206, and the other end of the ring light source mounting base 209 is detachably connected to the ring light source 208. The housing 201 is designed for aesthetic purposes and also provides some dust protection.

[0066] In a specific embodiment of this application, the specimen fixing structure 3 includes a fine needle 302, a connecting post 303, an θ-axis rotation module 304, and a connecting post fixing seat 305. The sample 301 is manually inserted into the fine needle 302 and then fixed together in the needle groove of the connecting post 303. As the θ-axis rotation module 304 rotates, the sample 301 can rotate in three-dimensional space. The θ-axis rotation module 304 uses a stepper motor to drive a worm gear, which, through transmission, allows the sample 301 to rotate freely 360° in space. The high-definition camera 214 of this application is a 4K camera. Considering the limited depth of field of a 4K camera, a Z-axis module 213 is added. The Z-axis module 213 includes a Z-axis stepper motor, a ball screw, a guide rail, a sensor, and a female serial port connector. Its purpose is to allow the entire camera to move up and down in the Z-axis direction, ensuring that photos and videos are as clear as possible, facilitating depth of field adjustment, and making it convenient for the user to replace the sample 301.
