Therefore, a biological cell staining device, disclosed in CN221506443U, is described. A slide containing cells is placed on a slide holding plate. A circular hole on the slide holding plate is aligned with a cylindrical rod. The slide holding plate is then placed on a pad, at which point the cylindrical rod is embedded in the circular hole. The protrusion is then released, and the cylindrical rod moves upward under the elastic force of the elastic element, thereby moving the slide holding plate closer to the dispensing head. Subsequently, a screw rotates, causing a rectangular plate to move, thus adjusting the position of the dispensing head so that it can sequentially dispense liquid onto multiple slides.
[0003] However, common slide sizes are: 76mm×26mm, 50mm×76mm, and 25mm×75mm. According to the attached drawings of the prior art, the slide storage plate in the prior art is designed as a groove or slot of a fixed size, which can only accommodate slides of a specific size. If the size of the slide does not match the storage plate, the slide may not be able to be placed stably, or even not at all. Utility Model Content

[0020] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0021] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.
[0022] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a biological cell staining device includes a base 9. Several layers of horizontally placed stacked plates 1 are arranged on one side of the upper surface of the base 9. Sockets 7 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the upper surface of the stacked plates 1, and a post 8 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the stacked plates 1 directly below any socket 7. The post 8 on the lower surface of the stacked plate 1 of the upper layer is inserted into the socket 7 on the upper surface of the stacked plate 1 of the lower layer. The insertion of the post 7 and the socket 8 can ensure that the relative positions of the two stacked plates 1 in the stacked state are fixed. In actual use, the glass slide is placed on the stacked plate 1 and waited for staining.
[0023] The upper surface of the stacking plate 1 has a first insertion hole 2, a second insertion hole 3, and a third insertion hole 19 near each of the four corners. The four insertion holes 2, 3, and 19 on the same stacking plate 1 are rectangularly distributed. Depending on the size of the slide used, the rectangular dimensions of the four insertion holes 2, 3, and 19 are 50mm×76mm, 76mm×26mm, and 25mm×75mm, respectively. Furthermore, in actual use, it can be further processed to create other rectangular insertion holes of different sizes on the stacking plate 1. The upper surface of the stacking plate 1 also has two rear stop inserts 5 and two front stop inserts 4. The rear stop inserts 5 and front stop inserts 4 are used to abut against the four corners of the slide, and one side of the front stop insert 4 is hinged. The rotating piece 6, the rear stop plug 5, and the front stop plug 4 are used to connect with the first socket 2, the second socket 3, and the third socket 19. The two rotating pieces 6 on the same stacking plate 1 are both set close to the front side of the stacking plate 1. The two rear stop plugs 5 on the same stacking plate 1 are L-shaped and set close to the rear side of the stacking plate 1. In actual operation, by rotating the rotating piece 6 to the other side, it is convenient for personnel to place the glass slide on the stacking plate 1. Through the gap between the two rotating pieces 6, the glass slide is pushed to slide between the two front stop plugs 4 and the two rear stop plugs 5 on the stacking plate 1. Then the rotating piece 6 is rotated back to its original position. The two front stop plugs 4 and the two rear stop plugs 5 can be used to position the glass slide placed on the stacking plate 1 at the four corners to prevent the glass slide from shaking or shifting.
[0024] A vertically arranged linear module 12 is inserted into the other side of the upper surface of the base 9. A vertically lifting seat 11 is slidably mounted on the linear module 12. A dye tank 17 is mounted on one side of the upper surface of the lifting seat 11, and a pump body 18 is mounted on the other side of the upper surface of the lifting seat 11. The pump body 18 is used to extract dye from the dye tank 17 and drip it onto the glass slide to stain the cells on the glass slide. An electric telescopic rod 10 is fixedly mounted on the lower surface of the base 9. The electric telescopic rod 10 is used to pull the linear module 12 to slide relative to the stacking plate 1. Because the stacking plates 1 are used in a stacked manner, when the pump body 18 is raised and lowered to the position for staining the glass slide on a certain layer of the stacking plate 1, the electric telescopic rod 10 is extended to push the linear module 12 away from the stacking plate 1 to ensure that the pump body 18 does not interfere with the stacking plate 1 during the raising and lowering process. When staining, the electric telescopic rod 10 is retracted to pull the linear module 12 closer to the stacking plate 1, so that the outlet of the pump body 18 moves to the top of the glass slide on the stacking plate 1. A vertically arranged rectangular bar 13 that passes through the lifting seat 11 is rotatably connected inside the linear module 12. A double-headed gear shaft 15 and a bevel gear ring 14 sleeved on the rectangular bar 13 are rotatably connected on the lifting seat 11. One end of the double-headed gear shaft 15 is meshed with the bevel gear ring 14, and the other end is meshed with a bevel gear block 16 that is fixedly connected to the end of the stirring rod in the dye box 17. In this solution, two motors can be installed on the linear module 12 to drive the lead screw and the rectangular bar 13 in the linear module 12 to rotate respectively. Therefore, the rectangular bar 13 rotates relative to the lifting seat 11, and the bevel gear ring 14 rotates at the same time as the rectangular bar 13 rotates. The two ends of the double-headed gear shaft 15 are bevel gear shaped and mesh with the bevel gear ring 14 and the bevel gear block 16 respectively. Therefore, under the transmission action of the double-headed gear shaft 15, the bevel gear block 16 can drive the stirring component in the dye box 17 to rotate and stir the mixed dye. In addition, the stirring component mentioned in this solution has been disclosed in the prior art.
[0025] The working principle is as follows: Based on the size of the slides used, the distribution positions and spacing of the two rear baffles 5 and the two front baffles 4 are adjusted using the first socket 2, the second socket 3, and the third socket 19. The slides are slid and pushed between the two rear baffles 5 and the two front baffles 4. The stacking plates 1 with the slides are stacked from bottom to top according to the number of layers. The linear module 12 is used to raise and lower the lifting seat 11 to the height of a certain layer of the stacking plate 1. After the linear module 12 moves towards the stacking plate 1, it moves to the outlet of the pump body 18 and moves above the slides on the stacking plate 1. The pump body 18 is used to extract the dye from the dye box 17 and drip it onto the slides to stain the cells on the slides. Then, the pump body 18 moves synchronously with the reverse movement of the linear module 12 to be misaligned with the stacking plate 1. The lifting seat 11 rises again and then moves horizontally to stain slides at other heights.
[0026] The wiring diagrams of the electric telescopic rod 10, pump body 18, and linear module 12 in this utility model are common knowledge in the field, and their working principles are known technologies. The appropriate model is selected according to actual use. Therefore, the control method and wiring layout of the electric telescopic rod 10, pump body 18, and linear module 12 will not be explained in detail.
[0027] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
