Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of microscope auxiliary tools technology, and in particular to a mobile phone holder that is mounted on a microscope. Background Technology

[0002] Microscopes are widely used in biology, medicine, mineralogy, and other fields, and the observation of microscopic features is an important basis for professional technicians to conduct inspections and make judgments. However, high-end microscopes with photomicrography capabilities are expensive and require computers and specialized software, making it difficult to meet the needs of inspectors to collect microscopic features of samples in a timely manner during daily work. In recent years, with the widespread use of mobile phones and the improvement of mobile phone camera pixels, it has become possible to use mobile phones to collect microscopic features under medical microscopes during inspections. Because the imaging aperture of the microscope eyepiece is very small, focusing with a mobile phone can be difficult, leading to the development of mobile phone camera stands.

[0003] Chinese patent CN209196464U discloses a universal mobile phone camera holder for medical microscopes, including a phone holder, a spherical rotating base, a telescopic bracket, and a clamp for fixing the phone camera holder to the microscope arm. The phone holder includes a nano-suction cup and a mounting base. The nano-suction cup is fixed to the mounting base, which is fixedly connected to the rotating base. The telescopic bracket includes a horizontal telescopic bracket and a vertical telescopic bracket. One end of the horizontal telescopic bracket is hinged to the spherical rotating base, and the other end is hinged to the vertical telescopic bracket. Both hinges are connected with bolts, and a fixing valve secures the device. This invention solves the problems of taking pictures under a microscope without a monitor and the instability and focusing difficulties caused by handheld mobile phone photography. Furthermore, through a simple and easy-to-operate structure, it enables rapid microscope photography, is low-cost, flexible and convenient to operate, produces high-resolution images, and facilitates storage, thereby improving the work efficiency of medical personnel and meeting the basic needs of work and teaching.

[0004] However, in practical applications, the above technical solutions still have the following shortcomings:

[0005] 1) The base is simply fixed with suction cups, which is not very sturdy;

[0006] 2) The adjustment relies on a freely rotating and movable base and telescopic rod. The accuracy of the adjustment process is limited and cannot be achieved. Moreover, after long-term use, the connection between the base and the telescopic rod will show signs of aging and weakness, which may lead to loosening and cause the phone's shooting position to shake, affecting the shooting effect. Utility Model Content

[0007] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a mobile phone holder that can be installed on a microscope, which is suitable for different models of microscopes, has stable installation, strong support, and can achieve precise adjustment, resulting in more stable shooting effect.

[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0009] A mobile phone holder for mounting on a microscope includes a base for mounting and fixing, a rotary adjustment component for wide-range adjustment, a horizontal adjustment component for horizontal position adjustment, and a clip component for holding the mobile phone. The bottom of the horizontal adjustment component is mounted on the base, the rotary adjustment component is mounted on the upper end of the horizontal adjustment component, and the clip component is mounted on the rotary adjustment component. The horizontal adjustment component includes a gravity slider slidably mounted on the base, a U-shaped seat slidably mounted on the gravity slider, and the U-shaped seat includes two opposing support plates. A movable plate is connected between the two support plates, and slide rods are provided at both ends of the movable plate, sliding through the two support plates. A rack is provided at the bottom of the movable plate, and a drive gear is provided corresponding to the rack. The drive gear is connected to the U-shaped seat via a bearing, and a rotation knob is connected to the drive gear. The rotary adjustment component includes a support base, which is fixedly mounted in the middle section of the movable plate.

[0010] Furthermore, a first groove is provided on the gravity slider corresponding to the U-shaped seat, and a first threaded push rod for pressing against the U-shaped seat is provided through one side wall of the first groove. One end of the first threaded push rod abuts against the U-shaped seat, and the other end of the first threaded push rod is provided with a first knob.

[0011] Furthermore, a second groove is provided on the base corresponding to the gravity slider, and a second threaded push rod for pressing against the gravity slider is provided through one side wall of the second groove. One end of the second threaded push rod abuts against the gravity slider, and the other end of the second threaded push rod is provided with a second knob.

[0012] Furthermore, the rotation adjustment assembly also includes a first connecting rod rotatably connected to the support base, a second connecting rod hinged to the first connecting rod, and a ball joint seat, wherein the ball joint seat is hinged to the clamping assembly.

[0013] Furthermore, the support base is provided with a rotating groove, and the end of the first connecting rod is provided with a circular support column. The circular support column is rotatably fitted into the rotating groove, and a third threaded push rod is provided through the side wall of the rotating groove. The third threaded push rod is provided with a third knob.

[0014] Furthermore, the other end of the first connecting rod is provided with a U-shaped slot and a hinge shaft that passes through the U-shaped slot, and the second connecting rod is rotatably mounted on the hinge shaft.

[0015] Furthermore, one end of the hinge shaft is fixedly connected to the U-shaped slot, and the other end of the hinge shaft is slidably connected to the U-shaped slot. The movable end of the hinge shaft is threaded and equipped with a tightening nut.

[0016] Furthermore, the clip assembly includes an elastic clip for holding the mobile phone, and the elastic clip has a rotating ball corresponding to the ball joint seat.

[0017] Furthermore, the bottom of the base is provided with a suction cup.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] In practical applications, the base supports the entire stand and can be installed anywhere near the microscope on the lab bench, depending on the usage scenario. The horizontal adjustment component allows for large-distance horizontal adjustment via the sliding of the gravity slider, while short-distance fine adjustments are achieved using the manual adjustment U-shaped base and rotating knob. Manually rotating the knob drives the drive gear, which in turn displaces the meshing rack, thus moving the upper part of the equipment along with it. This ensures easy fine-tuning of the phone's position during shooting, avoiding large movements that could affect the overall shooting. The base and support are perpendicular to each other, while the rotation adjustment component is used for spatial position adjustment to accommodate microscopes of different sizes and models. Together with the horizontal adjustment component, the optimal shooting position can be found, including the gravity slider. During operation, first fix the base in a suitable position based on the approximate location, then install the phone onto the clip assembly for secure mounting. Adjust the rotating adjustment assembly to ensure the phone does not interfere with the microscope's normal operation. Next, adjust the gravity slider to the appropriate shooting position as needed, and begin microscope observation. If fine-tuning of the shooting position is required during operation, manually adjust the position of the U-shaped base, or adjust the rotating knob to move the support on the moving plate to fine-tune the phone's shooting position until the optimal position is achieved. This invention is applicable to various microscope models, providing stable installation, strong support, precise adjustment, and more stable shooting results. Attached Figure Description

[0027] To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments and accompanying drawings. The content mentioned in the embodiments is not intended to limit the present invention.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model provides a mobile phone holder for mounting on a microscope, including a base 1 for mounting and fixing, a rotary adjustment component 2 for wide-range adjustment, a horizontal adjustment component 3 for horizontal position adjustment, and a clip component 4 for holding the mobile phone. The bottom of the horizontal adjustment component 3 is mounted on the base 1, the rotary adjustment component 2 is mounted on the upper end of the horizontal adjustment component 3, and the clip component 4 is mounted on the rotary adjustment component 2. The horizontal adjustment component 3 includes a gravity slider 31 slidably mounted on the base 1, and a U-shaped seat 32 is slidably mounted on the gravity slider 31. The U-shaped base 32 includes two opposing support plates 321, with a movable plate 33 connected between the two support plates 321. Each end of the movable plate 33 has a sliding rod 34 that slides through the two support plates 321. A rack 35 is located at the bottom of the movable plate 33, and a drive gear 36 is provided corresponding to the rack 35. The drive gear 36 is mounted on the U-shaped base 32 via a bearing, and a rotation knob 37 is connected to the drive gear 36. The rotation adjustment assembly 2 includes a support base 21, which is fixedly installed in the middle section of the movable plate 33.

[0029] In this embodiment, the base 1 supports the entire support device and can be installed at any position near the microscope on the experimental table according to the usage scenario. The horizontal adjustment component 3 achieves large-distance horizontal adjustment by sliding the gravity slider 31, and then achieves short-distance fine adjustment by manually adjusting the U-shaped seat 32 and rotating the knob 37. Manually operating the rotating knob 37 drives the drive gear 36 to rotate, and the rack 35 meshing with it is displaced accordingly, thereby driving the device part located above to move together, so as to ensure that the position of the mobile phone can be easily fine-tuned during the shooting process, avoiding large movements from affecting the overall shooting. The U-shaped seat 32 and the support base 21 are perpendicular to each other in their direction of travel, and the rotation adjustment component 2 is used for spatial position adjustment so as to be applicable to microscopes of different specifications and models. It works with the horizontal adjustment component 3 to find the best shooting position, where the gravity slider... During operation, first fix the base 1 in a suitable position based on the approximate location. Then, install the mobile phone onto the clip assembly 4 for fixation. First, adjust the rotation adjustment assembly 2 to ensure the mobile phone does not interfere with the normal operation of the microscope. Then, adjust the gravity slider 31 to a suitable shooting position as needed, and begin microscope observation. If fine adjustments to the shooting position are required during operation, manually adjust the position of the U-shaped base 31, or adjust the rotating knob 37 to move the support base 21 on the moving plate 33 to fine-tune the mobile phone's shooting position until the optimal shooting position is achieved. This bracket is suitable for different models of microscopes, provides stable installation and strong support, and allows for precise adjustment, resulting in more stable shooting effects.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, the gravity slider 31 has a first groove 311 corresponding to the U-shaped seat 32. A first threaded push rod 312 for pressing and limiting the U-shaped seat 32 is provided through one side wall of the first groove 311. One end of the first threaded push rod 312 abuts against the U-shaped seat 32, and the other end of the first threaded push rod 312 is provided with a first knob 313. In this embodiment, the U-shaped seat 32 slides in the first groove 311 to adjust its position. When it is adjusted to a suitable position, the first knob 313 is operated to push the first threaded push rod 312 to press the U-shaped seat 32 against the other side wall of the first groove 311 for limiting and fixing. Since the position adjustment of the U-shaped seat 32 is only a fine adjustment, the first threaded push rod 312 only needs to be located in the middle of the first groove 311.

[0031] like Figure 2As shown, a second groove 11 is provided on the base 1 corresponding to the gravity slider 31. A second threaded push rod 12 for pressing against the gravity slider 31 is provided through one side wall of the second groove 11. One end of the second threaded push rod 12 abuts against the gravity slider 31, and the other end of the second threaded push rod 12 is provided with a second knob 13. In this embodiment, the gravity slider 31 is made of heavy materials such as iron blocks to prevent the bracket from tipping over. The gravity slider 31 slides in the second groove 11 to adjust its position. When it is adjusted to a suitable position, the second knob 13 is operated to push the second threaded push rod 12 to press the gravity slider 31 against the other side wall of the second groove 11 for limiting and fixing.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the rotation adjustment assembly 2 further includes a first connecting rod 22 rotatably connected to the support base 21, a second connecting rod 23 hinged to the first connecting rod 22, and a ball joint seat 24, the ball joint seat 24 being hinged to the clamping assembly 4. In this embodiment, the spatial adjustment of the mobile phone position is achieved by using the hinged connection of the first connecting rod 22 and the second connecting rod 23, making the bracket adaptable to microscopes of different models and specifications, convenient to adjust, and highly practical.

[0033] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the support base 21 has a rotating groove 211, and the end of the first connecting rod 22 has a circular support column 221. The circular support column 221 is rotatably fitted into the rotating groove 211. A third threaded push rod 212 is provided through the side wall of the rotating groove 211, and a third knob 213 is provided on the third threaded push rod 212. In this embodiment, the circular support column 221 is installed in the rotating groove 211 by embedding to prevent slippage. The third threaded push rod 212 and the third knob 213 are provided for locking and limiting. Compared with damping limiting, this locking method is more stable.

[0034] like Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the other end of the first connecting rod 22 is provided with a U-shaped slot 221 and a hinge shaft 223 passing through the U-shaped slot 222. The second connecting rod 23 is rotatably mounted on the hinge shaft 222. One end of the hinge shaft 223 is fixedly connected to the U-shaped slot 222, and the other end of the hinge shaft 223 is slidably connected to the U-shaped slot 222. The movable end of the hinge shaft 223 is threaded and equipped with a tightening nut 224. In this embodiment, after the second connecting rod 23 is adjusted to the correct angle, rotating the tightening nut 224 causes the U-shaped slot 222 to clamp and lock the second connecting rod 23, preventing movement and loosening.

[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, the clip assembly 4 includes an elastic clip 41 for holding a mobile phone, and a rotating ball 42 is provided on the elastic clip 41 corresponding to the ball joint seat 24. In this embodiment, the rotating ball 42 is damped connected to the ball joint seat 24, and an external force is required to rotate it.

[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, the bottom of the base 1 is provided with a suction cup 14. In this embodiment, the suction cup 14 is provided at the bottom of the base 1 to facilitate more stable adhesion to the table surface and prevent slippage and tipping.

[0037] All technical features in this embodiment can be modified in appearance according to actual needs.

[0038] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
