The brush 19 is made of soft material, such as camel hair. During use, the brush 19 needs to be cleaned regularly.
[0026] Furthermore, the rotating shaft 17 is connected to the brush 19 via the second buckle 18, the inner wall of the rotating groove 16 is in contact with the outer wall of the rotating shaft 17, and a flipping mechanism is provided on the outer side of the scanning lens 2.
[0027] For ease of protection, the flipping mechanism includes a fixed shaft 4, a limiting ring 5, a rotating ring 6, a nut 7, a connecting plate 8, an end plate 9, a slide rod 10, a spring 11, and a base plate 12. The outer side of the scanning lens 2 is integrally formed with a fixed shaft 4, the outer side of the fixed shaft 4 is integrally formed with a limiting ring 5, the outer side of the fixed shaft 4 is rotatably connected with a rotating ring 6, one end of the fixed shaft 4 is threadedly connected with a nut 7, the outer side of the rotating ring 6 is integrally formed with a connecting plate 8, the inner side of the connecting plate 8 is slidably connected with an end plate 9, the bottom of the end plate 9 is fixedly connected with a slide rod 10, the outer side of the slide rod 10 is sleeved with a spring 11, and one end of the slide rod 10 is integrally formed with a base plate 12.
[0028] When the scanning lens 2 is not in use, the protective cover 3 can be pulled to slide the slide bar 10 downwards and compress the spring 11. Then, the connecting plate 8 can be rotated, at which point the rotating ring 6 is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft 4, flipping the protective cover 3. After releasing the protective cover 3, the spring 11 returns to its original position. During rotation, the arc-shaped protrusion and arc-shaped groove work together to temporarily support and position the flipped position, ensuring the stability of the protective cover 3. At this time, the brush 19 can also be cleaned or replaced. When the scanning lens 2 is not in use, the protective cover 3 can be reset by performing the opposite operation. The protective cover 3 can protect the end lens of the scanning lens 2. The detachable rotating ring 6 makes it easy to replace the entire lens.
[0029] Furthermore, an installation mechanism is provided at the connection between the base plate 12 and the protective cover 3, and the inner wall of the connecting plate 8 is in contact with the outer wall of the end plate 9.
[0030] Furthermore, the inner side of the rotating ring 6 is integrally formed with an arc-shaped protrusion, and the outer side of the fixed shaft 4 is provided with an arc-shaped groove, the outer wall of the arc-shaped protrusion matching the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove.
[0031] Furthermore, the installation mechanism includes a docking groove 13, a side plate 14, and a first buckle 15. The docking groove 13 is provided through one side of the base plate 12.

The side plate 14 is connected to the base plate 12 through the first buckle 15, which facilitates the assembly of the cover 3 and makes operation and use more convenient.
[0032] Furthermore, the first buckle 15 slides through and inserts into the docking groove 13, and the side plate 14 is connected to the bottom plate 12 through the first buckle 15.
[0033] Working principle: When the scanning lens 2 is not in use, the protective cover 3 can be pulled, causing the slide bar 10 to slide down and compress the spring 11. Then, the connecting plate 8 can be rotated, at which point the rotating ring 6 is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft 4, flipping the protective cover 3. Releasing the protective cover 3 releases the spring 11. During rotation, the arc-shaped protrusion and arc-shaped groove work together to temporarily support and position the flipped position, ensuring the stability of the protective cover 3. The brush 19 can also be cleaned or replaced at this time. When the scanning lens 2 is not in use, the protective cover 3 is reset using the reverse operation. The protective cover 3 allows for cleaning of the end lens of the scanning lens 2. The protective cover 3 is attached to the bottom of the scanning lens 2. At this time, the brush 19 contacts the scanning lens 2. By rotating the shaft 17, the brush 19 is driven to rotate, thereby cleaning the scanning lens 2. The detachable design of the brush 19 makes it easy to replace or clean it. The brush 19 is made of soft material and can be made of camel hair. During use, the brush 19 needs to be cleaned regularly. The specific model of the slide scanner body 1 is: Ocus GRUNDIUM Life Science Instrument.
