Paraffin sectioning is a common method in histology, and is commonly used for observing normal tissue cells or stroma, and also for observing structural and compositional changes of pathological tissue cells or stroma. Firstly, biological tissues are embedded in paraffin (called tissue wax block for short), then the tissue wax block is cut into slices by a paraffin slicer, a blade of the paraffin slicer is used for carrying out reciprocating cutting in the vertical direction on the wax block wrapped with the biological tissues, and paraffin slices with the thickness of 5-10 microns are cut. In the slicing process, an operator needs to hold tweezers to clamp the front end of the paraffin slice for continuous slicing, so that the slices are prevented from being folded or overlapped, and after a certain number of paraffin slices are cut, the operator needs to hold tweezers to clamp the paraffin slices and unfold the paraffin slices on warm water. And finally, the thin slice is laid on a glass slide, and a subsequent histological staining experiment can be carried out after the thin slice is air-dried and high-temperature-dried.
If the operation personnel does not match the operation speed of the slicer blade well or the force is too large when pulling out the paraffin slice, the complete slice can not be obtained; the sheet falls off due to unstable forceps clamps, and the problem of rolling sheets is inevitably caused; and the paraffin thin slice is easy to be broken when the tweezers clamp the paraffin thin slice. When the paraffin wax sheet is spread on warm water, the paraffin wax is easy to fuse under the condition of slightly high temperature and is adhered to the tweezers, and the tweezers and the paraffin wax sheet can not be effectively separated; this can lead to the paraffin flake being damaged, which is time consuming. Particularly, for operators with little operation experience, the paraffin slice is easy to roll or damage, the tissue paraffin slice cannot be continuously obtained, the capture of positive or negative results in subsequent histological staining experiments may be influenced, and the success rate of the experiments is reduced.

The specific control process of the control system to the electrostatic mechanism and the conveying mechanism can be adjusted according to actual needs. In this embodiment, the distance between the highest point of the specimen holder and the blade is constant, H is set, and the length of the conveyor belt is set to Y cm. When the laser range finder detects that the specimen holder starts to move vertically downwards, a signal is sent to the control system, the control system controls the conveying mechanism and the electrostatic mechanism to start working, and the moving speed of the conveying belt and the descending speed V of the specimen holder are ensuredSign boardThe paraffin slice is uniformly adsorbed to the first end of the conveying belt with static electricity, and the paraffin slice cannot be crumpled and torn when being adsorbed to the first end of the conveying belt with static electricity and can be completely paved on the conveying belt. When the laser range finder detects that the specimen holder reaches the lowest point (the cutting action of the paraffin block is finished by the corresponding blade), the specimen holder is about to start to vertically ascend and return to the initial position, and the walking distance of the specimen holder in the time period when the specimen holder returns to the initial position is H. In this embodiment, the control system controls the speed of the conveyor belt to be V during the process that the specimen holder moves vertically upwardsConveying appliance=Y/(H/VSign board) When the laser range finder detects that the specimen holder vertically rises to the highest point initial position (corresponding to the paraffin section moves to the tail end of the second end of the conveying belt along with the conveying belt), a signal is sent to the control system, the control system controls the two-way switch of the static mechanism to be connected with the grounding electrode, so that the conveying belt eliminates static electricity, and the paraffin section can smoothly leave the surface of the second end of the conveying belt before the next period of slicing is carried out.
Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used for illustrating the technical solutions of the present application and not for limiting the protection scope thereof, and although the present application is described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: numerous variations, modifications, and equivalents will occur to those skilled in the art upon reading the present application and are within the scope of the claims as issued or as granted.
