The deviation rectifying module 4 is located between the unwinding module 1 and the pressing rod 31.
The micro-contact collection module is the basis of a thin slice full-automatic collection system, and the unreeling module 1 and the reeling module 2 are important components of a slice collection system, so that the adhesive tape is ensured to be in a moving state all the time and the slices 8 can be recovered. The full-automatic collecting system can correct the position of the adhesive tape generating the deviation by arranging the deviation correcting module 4 so as to ensure that the adhesive tape does not have the deviation in the moving process, thereby reducing the influence of the deviation of the adhesive tape on the deformation of the sample slice.
The system also comprises a tension control module positioned on the movement track of the adhesive tape and used for detecting the tension of the adhesive tape and adjusting the tension of the adhesive tape according to the tension detection result. The tension control module comprises a tension detector 5 and a tension adjuster, wherein the tension detector 5 is a tension sensor and is used for detecting the tension of the adhesive tape; the tension regulator is a magnetic powder brake arranged on the film placing module 1 and is used for regulating the tension of the adhesive tape according to the tension detection result. The tension detector 5 is located between the pressing rod 31 and the winding module 2. Through the tension control module, the tension change in the moving process of the adhesive tape can be detected in real time, and the tension can be adjusted in real time, so that the deformation of a sample slice caused by the stretching deformation of the adhesive tape is reduced as much as possible.
Wherein, the system also comprises an angular speed encoder 6 positioned on the moving track of the adhesive tape, and the angular speed encoder 6 is used for cooperating with a motor in the film collecting module 2 to control the moving speed of the adhesive tape. Through angle encoder 6 and motor cooperation with accurate control sticky tape translation rate, can reduce the sample section deformation that the sticky tape removal caused.
Wherein, the micro-contact collection module further comprises a deviation adjusting device 7, and the deviation adjusting device 7 is connected with the pressing rod 31 to adjust the spatial posture of the pressing rod 31 in four degrees of freedom, namely, eliminate the deviation of the pressing rod 31 in four degrees of freedom.

Based on the principle, a flexible adjusting mechanism in the offset adjusting device is designed, and the control of four degrees of freedom of the pressure lever is realized.
The working process is as follows:
in operation, the unwinding module 1 and the winding module 2 are opened to start the tape 32 to move at a speed v, and the movement trace is shown in fig. 1.
