Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pathological dehydration machine technology, specifically a pathological dehydration machine that facilitates the lifting and placing of samples. Background Technology

[0002] The pathology dehydrator, an intelligent programmable biological tissue automatic dehydrator, maintains the best reagent effect and produces the best sample quality. Because the detection of pathological tissues requires pretreatment, that is, the pathological tissues need to be dehydrated, paraffin-impregnated or frozen, and then sectioned, stained and tested. The relatively outdated method is to put the pathological tissues into a beaker, heat them with an alcohol stove to dehydrate them, and then use the same method to impregnate them with paraffin or freeze them with liquid nitrogen to complete the pretreatment.

[0003] According to the patent titled "A Portable Pathology Dehydrator" (Patent Publication No.: CN220473146U, Patent Publication Date: 2024-02-09), the rotating shaft passes through the first outer shell and is rotatably connected to the first outer shell via bearings. The first fixed block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first outer shell. This portable pathology dehydrator, through the cooperation of the housing and the automatic turning device, connects the hydraulic cylinder power supply. The extension end of the hydraulic cylinder drives the slider to slide along the groove machined on the first fixed block, thereby driving the threaded rod to move. The rotation of the second gear drives the rotating shaft to rotate, so that the pathology dehydrator can turn automatically, thereby saving the labor of medical staff. The rotation of the worm gear drives the fourth gear to rotate, thereby driving the second connecting rod to move. The rotation of the third fixed block drives the worm gear to slide along the groove machined on the second outer shell, so that the fan can move back and forth, improving the heat dissipation effect inside the pathology dehydrator, thereby preventing the pathology dehydrator from overheating and reducing the failure rate of the pathology dehydrator.

[0004] Based on the aforementioned existing technology, current pathology dehydrators still have the following problems: existing pathology dehydrators usually require operators to manually lift heavy sample baskets, which may contain liquids such as formaldehyde, from a cart or workbench on the ground to the top of the dehydrator at shoulder or head level and place them into the inlet. Repeatedly lifting sample baskets weighing several kilograms overhead is a huge burden on the shoulders, waist, and back of laboratory technicians. Therefore, this utility model provides a pathology dehydrator that facilitates the lifting and placement of samples. Utility Model Content
