The number of the hook grooves 55 is the same as that of the bearing positions, and after the first bearing position is inserted into a slide, the hook groove 55 is hooked by the poking head, so that the slide basket 5 advances one grid, and a second slide is continuously inserted. In other embodiments, the abutting surface may be a side surface of a protrusion or a groove, which may be disposed at any position of the outer wall of the basket body.
The outer wall of the glass slide basket 5 is also provided with an anti-reverse part for preventing the glass slide basket from being reversely mounted, the anti-reverse part is an anti-reverse groove or an anti-reverse bulge, and when the anti-reverse part is positioned on the outer wall of the bottom surface of the basket body, the glass slide basket is in an asymmetric structure relative to the anti-reverse groove or the anti-reverse bulge. The following will be described in detail in connection with the sample basket transfer system.
The slide basket 5 can be made of PEI (Polyetherimide), namely the abbreviation of Polyetherimide, and has good wear-resisting effect, and particularly, the PEI material is used at a slide insertion opening, so that powder generated by wear can be effectively avoided. In addition, the glossiness of the surface of the slide basket 5 is designed, preferably, the glossiness is suitable for optical coupling detection.
Example two
With continued reference to fig. 4-10, the present embodiment also provides a slide basket transfer system (i.e., a specific application of the sample basket transfer system to a slide basket) comprising a loading device 1, a feeding device 2, an output device 3, and a controller (not shown).
Referring to fig. 4 and 5, the loading apparatus 1 includes a loading transport lane 11 and a loading transport mechanism 12, the loading transport lane 11 having a discharge area and a buffer area and being driven by the loading transport mechanism 12 and finally arranging the slide baskets in a queue in the buffer area.

The feeding conveying channel 21 is provided with a working area 213 for loading samples along the advancing direction of the slide basket, the feeding conveying channel is connected behind the loading conveying channel, the moving mechanism extends to the outlet end of the buffer area to pick up the slide basket, and the slide basket is conveyed to the working area along the feeding conveying channel to be loaded with the samples. The output device is provided with a discharging platform 31, a discharging piece 32 and a discharging driving mechanism 33, wherein the discharging platform 31 is connected behind the feeding conveying channel 21, the discharging piece 32 is arranged at the discharging platform 31, the discharging driving mechanism 33 is linked with the discharging piece 32, and drives the discharging piece 32 to push the slide basket to move from the feeding conveying channel to the discharging platform 31.
In addition, the feeding device 2 can also adopt a mechanical arm picking mode to realize the feeding function of the slide basket, and specifically, a mechanical arm is used as a moving mechanism to pick the slide basket from the buffer area of the loading device 1 and then send the slide basket to the working area of the feeding device 2 (if the feeding device is provided with an auxiliary buffer area, which will be described in detail below, the mechanical arm can also place the slide basket in the auxiliary buffer area, or pick the slide basket from the auxiliary buffer area and send the slide basket to the working area), so that the feeding device can also omit the technical characteristic of feeding a conveying channel.
Specifically, the loading device 1 is structured as follows:
referring to fig. 4 and 5, specifically, the loading transport path 11 is driven by a loading transport mechanism 12 for transporting the empty slide basket 5, in the exemplary structure of the present embodiment, the loading transport mechanism 12 is a synchronous belt wheel structure, or in other embodiments, the loading transport mechanism may also be a caterpillar or pusher dog structure, and the loading transport path 11 is transported by two synchronous belts, which are arranged side by side and driven by the synchronous belt wheel structure to transport the slide basket.
Further, the slide basket conveying system may further include a first basket body detecting mechanism 41, and the loading device 1 and the first basket body detecting mechanism 41 are in signal connection with the controller, wherein the first basket body detecting mechanism 41 is located in the discharging area 14 of the loading conveying channel 11 on the loading device 1, and is used for detecting whether a slide basket 5 is placed in the loading conveying channel, and sending first detection information to the controller, and the controller controls whether the loading conveying mechanism 12 drives the loading conveying channel 11 to convey the slide basket 5 to the feeding device 2 according to the obtained detection information sent by the first basket body detecting mechanism 41. If the slide basket is detected to be put into the loading device, the controller controls the loading device to forward convey the slide baskets to the buffer area to be arranged in a queue; if the loading of the slide basket into the loading device is not detected, the controller controls the loading device to remain stationary.
Of course, the first basket body detecting mechanism 41 is not an essential feature for achieving the technical purpose, and in other embodiments, the loading and conveying mechanism 12 may be manually operated by a user to drive the loading and conveying path 11 to convey the slide basket 5 to the feeding device 2.
The buffer area includes at least one buffer location, as shown in fig. 4, the number of the buffer locations in this embodiment is 6, 6 slide baskets can be buffered, and each buffer location is provided with a basket body detection mechanism for detecting whether a slide basket exists in the current buffer location. The basket detecting mechanism on the buffer bit 15 as the output end is defined as the second basket detecting mechanism 42, and the basket detecting mechanisms on the other buffer bits in the buffer area are defined as the sixth basket detecting mechanism 46. Of course, which cache bit is used as the output terminal can be selected according to the actual operation requirement, and all cache bits in the cache region can be used as the output terminal.
The second basket body detection mechanism 42 detects whether a slide basket is present in the buffer position 15, and sends second detection information to the controller, and the controller can also control the moving mechanism to move to the buffer position 15 (or any other buffer position can be used as an output end) of the buffer area and move the slide basket to the feeding device according to the obtained second detection information. If the slide basket is detected at the output end of the buffer area, the controller controls the moving mechanism to move the slide basket from the buffer area to the working area; if the slide basket is not detected at the output end of the buffer area, the controller does not control the moving mechanism to move the slide basket from the buffer area to the working area, and the moving mechanism automatically moves the slide basket.
Meanwhile, the second basket body detection mechanism 42 may also detect whether any slide basket is transferred to the output end of the buffer area, and send second detection information to the controller, and the controller controls the loading device to transfer the slide basket to the output end of the buffer area according to the second detection information. If the slide basket is detected to be not arranged in the output end of the buffer area, the controller controls the loading device to forward convey the slide baskets to the buffer area to be arranged in a queue; if the output end of the buffer area is detected to have the slide basket, the controller controls the loading device to keep still. This enables automatic transfer of the slide basket of the loading device.
In the loading device 1, the slide baskets are loaded into the work area or the buffer area, and the user can continuously load the empty slide baskets 5 without waiting. The user puts into the blowing district with slide basket 5, and first basket body detection mechanism 41 detects there is slide basket 5 to get into the back, starts the action wheel and begins to rotate, and the action wheel drives the hold-in range with following the driving wheel and rotates together, and hold-in range and slide basket 5 contact each other, drives slide basket 5 and loads forward, can set up at the output of buffer memory and keep off 16, will empty slide basket restriction in the output of buffer memory, avoids it to follow and loads transfer way roll-off buffer memory. After the first slide basket 5 is placed, the synchronous belt drives the slide basket 5 to be loaded forwards, the slide basket 5 leaves the placing area in a short time, a user can place the second slide basket 5 at once, the slide basket 5 is taken away by the synchronous belt in a short time and circulates in sequence, the user can continuously place the slide baskets 5, and finally the slide baskets are arranged in a queue in the cache area.
To prevent the user from inverting the slide basket 5, an inversion prevention portion may be provided on the side or bottom surface of the loading transfer path 11, the inversion prevention portion fitting into the slide basket. The anti-reverse part can perform anti-reverse for an anti-reverse groove or an anti-reverse bulge. When the anti-reverse groove or the anti-reverse bulge is arranged on the bottom surface, the distances from the anti-reverse groove or the anti-reverse bulge to the two side edges of the bottom surface are different. In this embodiment, taking the anti-reverse protrusion 13 as an example, in order to cooperate with the anti-reverse protrusion 13, please refer to fig. 1 and 2, the bottom of the slide basket 5 is also provided with an anti-reverse groove 51 cooperating with the anti-reverse protrusion 13, in order to determine the unique placing direction, the slide basket 5 is asymmetric left and right with respect to the anti-reverse groove 51, that is, the distance from the anti-reverse groove 51 to both sides of the slide basket 5 is not equal, but is consistent with the distance from the anti-reverse protrusion 13 to both sides of the bottom surface of the loading conveying channel, so the slide basket 5 can only be placed on the loading device 1 according to the fixing direction, otherwise, the slide basket cannot be loaded. When the anti-reverse groove or the anti-reverse protrusion is arranged on the side surface of the loading conveying passage 11, the two sides of the anti-reverse part on the slide basket are not required to form an asymmetric structure, namely, the two sides can be of a symmetric structure or an asymmetric structure.
Of course, the position of the stop recesses 52 and the projections can be adjusted, for example, the projections can be disposed on the slide basket 5, and the recesses can be correspondingly disposed on the loading transport path 11.
The feeding device 2 is structured as follows:
referring to fig. 4 and 6, in the feeder device 2, the feeder track 21 has at least one auxiliary buffer area 212 and at least one work area 213, the work area 213 being used to load slide locations into the slide basket by inserting slides into the slide basket by the robot arm. The infeed lane 21 is joined behind the loading lane 11.
The moving mechanism in this embodiment comprises a moving head 22, a telescopic drive 23 and a feed drive 24.
In the present embodiment, the moving head 22 is a pusher dog. The moving head is disposed along the moving direction of the slide basket 5 on the feeding transport path 21 and extends into the feeding transport path 21. The moving head is arranged on the power output end of the telescopic driving piece 23, and the telescopic driving piece 23 drives the moving head to extend or retract towards the slide basket 5. The pusher dog 22 and the telescopic driving member 23 are both arranged on the power output end of the feed driving member 24, and the feed driving member 24 drives the pusher dog 22 to move back and forth among the feed inlet 211, the auxiliary buffer area 212 and the slide loading position 213 on the feed conveying path 21.
When the second basket body detection mechanism 42 detects that the slide basket 5 is located at the output end, a signal is sent to the controller, and the controller controls the telescopic driving piece 23 and the feed driving piece 24 to act to drive the pusher dog 22 to work. Likewise, the second basket sensing mechanism 42 is not a necessary feature for achieving the objectives of the present technique, and in other embodiments, the retractable drive 23 and the advancement drive 24 may be manually operated by the user to drive the fingers 22 to transfer the slide basket 5.
Referring to fig. 4 and 6, in the exemplary structure of the present embodiment, the finger 22 of the feeding device 2 can extend into the hook slot 55 of the slide basket 5 to move the slide basket 5. The telescopic driving member 23 adopts an air cylinder, and the feed driving member 24 adopts a synchronous pulley structure. Of course, other drive mechanisms and finger 22 configurations known in the art are also suitable, such as a finger that moves the slide basket from a poked to a pushed, pulled, or sucked configuration.
The auxiliary buffer 212 has at least one auxiliary buffer bit, two for example, and is located after the load transfer way and before the working area. And each auxiliary cache position is respectively provided with a third basket body detection mechanism 43 for detecting whether a slide basket exists on the auxiliary cache position and sending third detection information to the controller for statistics or calculation. Meanwhile, the controller can also control whether the moving mechanism moves the slide basket to the auxiliary cache position or not according to the third detection information, and if the slide basket does not exist in the auxiliary cache position, the controller can control the moving mechanism to cache the slide basket in the auxiliary cache position; if a slide basket is present in the auxiliary cache location, the controller does not control the movement mechanism to move the slide basket to the auxiliary cache location. Of course, the third basket detecting mechanism 43 is not a necessary feature for achieving the purpose of the present technology, and the third basket detecting mechanism 43 may be omitted in other embodiments.
When the loading conveying path 11 delivers the slide basket 5, the synchronous pulley drives the cylinder and the pusher dog to move to the buffer position 15, the cylinder drives the pusher dog to extend out to hook the hook groove 55 at the bottom of the slide basket 5, and then the synchronous pulley drives the cylinder, the pusher dog and the slide basket 5 to move to the working area 213 or the auxiliary buffer area 212. Typically, the first slide basket 5 moves directly to the slide loading station 213, while the subsequent slide baskets 5 move to the auxiliary buffer area 212 for queuing or the work area 213 for slide insertion, as the case may be.
Just as the fingers are extendable and retractable by the cylinder, during a loading operation of a first slide basket 5, the telescopic drive 23 retracts the fingers 22 and the advance drive 24 moves the fingers 22 to the buffer positions 15 to move the second slide basket 5 to the auxiliary buffer area 212. Namely, the empty slide baskets 5 are buffered in the auxiliary buffer area 212 by the pusher dog after waiting for loading of the slides, so that the user can continuously place the empty slide baskets 5 on the loading device 1, and at least one auxiliary buffer area 212 is provided, so that the empty slide baskets 5 can be buffered, and the number of the empty slide baskets 5 can be increased without changing the size of the space occupied by the loading device 1.
Referring to fig. 7-9 and 11, 12, generally, when the slide basket 5 is transported to a designated position, the fingers are released, and because of errors in manufacturing, assembly, etc., the parts are transported to a position that deviates from the desired position, resulting in inaccurate positioning of the slide basket 5. This embodiment improves this, designs at least one positioning mechanism on slide basket 5, and this positioning mechanism includes mount pad and setting element, and the setting element stretches out to slide basket transmission orbit from the mount pad on, and wherein the setting element has at least one location portion of contact with slide basket, applys an effort in the direction of location portion butt slide basket, and this effort orders about location portion to press against slide basket formation gomphosis structure and prevent slide basket to move ahead, or orders about location portion to break away from slide basket, makes slide basket continue to move.
Specifically, the positioning mechanism is located at the slide loading position 213 of the feeding transport path 21, and referring to fig. 7 to 9, the positioning portion is driven by the elastic force of the elastic member, and the positioning portion is pushed or pulled toward the slide basket by the elastic force.
More specifically, referring to fig. 7-9 and 11, 12, the mounting base is fixedly disposed relative to the feeding conveying path 21, the positioning element includes a pressing wheel 261, a rotating shaft 265, and a swinging block 264, the pressing wheel 261 is rotatably disposed on the rotating shaft 265 and is connected to the swinging block 264 through the rotating shaft 265, the swinging block 264 is movably disposed on the mounting base, and the elastic element 263 is disposed between the swinging block 264 and the mounting base. The structure for movably coupling the swing block 264 with the mounting seat comprises a swing block rotating shaft 265, and the swing block rotating shaft 265 penetrates through the mounting seat and the swing block 264 to form a hinge structure. The elastic member 263 is a compression spring provided between the mounting seat and the mounting seat, and the mounting seat comprises a base 262 fixedly provided and a detachable top seat 267, and the spring is clamped between the top seat 267 and the swing block 264, as shown in fig. 7, 8 and 9.
Of course, the elastic member may be an extension spring or other elastic member. Also, the pinch roller 261 or the shaft 265 and/or the rocker itself may be made of an elastic material, which presses the pinch roller against the slide basket by its own elasticity rather than the elastic force of the elastic member. The force acting on the positioning part can be provided by a separate elastic member or an elastic material of the positioning part, and can be directly driven up and down by a driving mechanism, such as an air cylinder, a linear motor and the like. When the positioning mechanism is required to perform positioning, the driving mechanism drives the positioning part to move downwards to clamp the corresponding part of the slide basket, and when the slide basket is going to continue to move forwards, the driving mechanism drives the positioning part to move upwards to loosen the slide basket.
Referring to fig. 1, 6, 8, 9, 11 and 12, the positioning process of the positioning mechanism shown in this example is as follows: a positioning groove 52 is designed on the slide basket 5. When the slide basket stops near the detent mechanism, the pressure wheel 261 can become jammed in the detent 52. While pinch roller 261 compresses slide basket 5 under the action of spring 263. Positioning grooves 52 are properly aligned with puck 261. The positioning precision of the slide basket is ensured. When the slide basket 5 is to be moved away from the current position, the finger 22 drives the slide basket 5 forward. The slide basket 5 overcomes the spring force of the spring 263 of the positioning mechanism, the pressing wheel 261 is lifted, and the slide basket 5 enters the next station.
At a given position, such as the slide loading position 213, the slide basket 5 is not only dragged by the fingers, but also squeezed by the external pinch roller 261 above the positioning groove 52, the shape of the pinch roller 261 is also circular, and ideally, when the center of the pinch roller 261 coincides with the center of the positioning groove 52, the slide basket 5 is kept in a balanced state under the pressure of the pinch roller 261 and the supporting force of the bottom plate, as shown in FIG. 11. When the slide basket 5 is transported to the pinch roller 261 position, the ideal position between the two is not reached because of various external deviations, and the force point a of the slide basket 5 is shown in fig. 12. When the transmission force is removed, the external force acts on the slide basket 5 to return to the ideal position within a certain range, so that the slide basket 5 can realize a more accurate positioning function, and slides can be placed in the correct position in the slide basket.
In other embodiments, the positioning element may be a pressing block, the pressing block is entirely made of an elastic material, the pressing block has a positioning portion on one surface pressing the slide basket (in the above embodiments, the curved surface where the pressing wheel contacts with the positioning groove of the slide basket is the positioning portion, but the positioning portion changes along with the rotation of the pressing wheel), and an engaging structure is formed between the positioning portion and the slide basket. The positioning part is provided with an arc-shaped or conical groove or protrusion, or the positioning part can also be a friction surface with larger friction force.
The positioning mechanisms of the slide loading positions 213 on the feeding conveying channel 21 are one or at least two, when at least two positioning mechanisms are arranged, the positioning mechanisms are arranged in sequence along the conveying track of the slide basket, and the interval between the two positioning mechanisms at the outermost sides of the two ends is smaller than the length of the corresponding slide basket, so that the positioning mechanisms can act on the same slide basket at the same time. The present embodiment provides two positioning mechanisms spaced apart from each other by a length less than the length of a corresponding one of the slide baskets 5 in the direction of the feed conveying path 21, so as to press the slide baskets 5 from both ends of the slide baskets 5 for better positioning. To prevent the slide basket 5 from being displaced or misaligned in the auxiliary buffer sections 212, a positioning mechanism as described above may be provided in both of the auxiliary buffer sections 212.
To better understand the condition of the inserted slide, the slide basket transfer system may further include a fourth basket detecting mechanism (which is shielded by the longitudinal stop mechanism 25 and therefore not indicated) in signal communication with the controller. The fourth basket body detection mechanism is arranged at a slide loading position 213 on the feeding conveying channel 21, and the light path of the fourth basket body detection mechanism is matched with the edge and the clearance on the slide basket 5 to detect the number of slides loaded in the slide basket 5 and the position of the slide basket 5. Specifically, taking the fourth basket body detection mechanism as an example of a correlation type optocoupler, when the slide basket 5 moves forward for one grid, the correlation type optocoupler detects that the process that the edge 53 is shielded and the gap 54 is not shielded, the process of movement once occurs, shielding does not occur, and then shielding jumps, if jumps occur, the movement is normal, otherwise, the operation is failed. And judging whether the movement of the slide basket 5 is accurately in place or not through the change of the optical coupling signal, if the process that the shielding of the edge 53 and the shielding of the gap 54 are continuously detected for a plurality of times, the slide basket walks for at least one more time. Meanwhile, the inserted slides can be counted according to the number of the grids which are moved forwards by the slide basket.
Referring to fig. 9 and 10, when the slide basket 5 enters the working area, in order to further improve the positioning accuracy in the longitudinal direction (i.e. as shown by arrow C in fig. 9), the feeding device 2 may further include a longitudinal position-limiting mechanism 25, the longitudinal position-limiting mechanism 25 is fixedly arranged on the feeding conveying passage 21 and has a position-limiting channel 251 communicated with the feeding conveying passage 21, and an opening 252 (the opening is a cone-like inlet as shown in fig. 9, wherein the large opening is located in front of the small opening) is formed in one side of the position-limiting channel 251 facing the advancing direction of the slide basket 5, wherein in terms of width, the width of the large opening is greater than that of the small opening, and the width of the small opening is greater than that of the slide basket, so as to ensure that the slide basket is smoothly placed from the direction B shown in fig. 10, and to automatically adjust the slide. The opening 252 has a strong wear resistance.
Referring to fig. 9, in order to accommodate the positional change of the slide moving mechanism, it is necessary to adjust the position of the longitudinal position restricting mechanism (i.e., the direction of the position restricting path) on the feeding transport path 21. The feeding device further comprises a side plate 27, the side plate 27 is arranged on one side of the feeding conveying channel, the side plate 27 is fixedly connected with the longitudinal limiting mechanism 25, the side plate 27 and the feeding conveying channel 21 are fixed through at least one threaded piece 271, a threaded hole in the feeding conveying channel 21 is matched with the outer diameter of the threaded piece, and the threaded hole in the side plate 27 is larger than the outer diameter of the threaded piece, so that the transverse position, the longitudinal position and the angle of the side plate 27 and the longitudinal limiting mechanism can be adjusted. For example, at least two screw members 271 are provided in the moving direction of the slide basket 5, and the screw holes 272 of the side plate 27 are waist-shaped holes. In this way, as shown in fig. 9, since the threaded hole 272 of the side plate 27 is larger than the outer diameter of the threaded member 271, by adjusting the position of the threaded member 271 in the threaded hole 272, the adjustment in the longitudinal direction (indicated by arrow C in fig. 9), the lateral direction (indicated by arrow D in fig. 9), and the angular direction (indicated by arrow E in fig. 9) can be achieved, so that the relative positions of the longitudinal limiting mechanism 25 and the positioning mechanism in the installation of the apparatus are accurate, and the slide basket can be ensured to pass through the longitudinal limiting mechanism well and receive the slide loading accurately.

Example four
The fourth embodiment provides a slide basket conveying method, which is based on a slide basket conveying system, wherein the conveying system comprises a controller, a loading device and a feeding device, and the loading device and the feeding device are communicated with the controller and are controlled by the controller.
The loading device comprises a loading conveying channel and a loading conveying mechanism, wherein the loading conveying channel is provided with a material placing area for placing the slide basket and a cache area for caching the slide basket, the cache area is provided with at least one cache position, and the loading conveying channel is driven by the loading conveying mechanism and is used for conveying the slide basket from the material placing area to the cache position for arrangement in a queue;
the feeding device comprises a working area and a moving mechanism, wherein the working area is used for loading samples into the slide basket, and the moving mechanism picks up the slide basket from the buffer area and sends the slide basket to the working area for sample loading operation.
The method comprises the following steps:
a loading step, wherein the placing condition of the slide baskets in the cache region is detected, and the slide baskets are conveyed to the cache region according to the detection condition so that the slide baskets are placed in a queue on a cache position of the cache region;
and a feeding step of moving the slide basket of the buffer position to the working area so as to load the sample into the slide basket.
Wherein, the loading step may specifically include: whether a slide basket is placed into the loading device or not is detected, detection information is sent to the controller, and the controller controls the loading device to convey the slide basket forward or not according to the detection information, so that the slide baskets are arranged in a queue in the buffer area. The detection function can be realized by the first basket body detection mechanism 41 in the second embodiment, that is, if it is detected that the slide basket is placed into the loading device, the controller controls the loading device to forward transfer the slide basket to the buffer area for arrangement in a queue; if the loading of the slide basket into the loading device is not detected, the controller controls the loading device to remain stationary.
Or whether the slide basket is conveyed to the output end of the buffer area or not can be detected, the detection information is sent to the controller, and the controller controls whether the loading device conveys the slide basket to the output end of the buffer area or not according to the detection information. The second basket body detection mechanism 42 in the second embodiment can be used for realizing the detection function, that is, if it is detected that there is no slide basket in the output end of the buffer area, the controller determines whether it is necessary to continue to feed the slide baskets (if the number of the slide baskets above the feeding device is enough to load the slides, or there is no empty slide basket above the loading device, it is not necessary to feed the slide baskets at this time), and controls the loading device to forward transfer the slide baskets to the buffer area for arrangement in a queue; if the output end of the buffer area is detected to have the slide basket, the controller controls the loading device to keep still. This enables automatic transfer of the slide basket of the loading device.
Wherein, the feeding step may specifically include: and detecting whether a slide basket is conveyed to the output end of the cache region or not, and sending detection information to the controller, wherein the controller controls the moving mechanism to convey the slide basket at the output end of the cache region to the working region or not according to the detection information. The detection function can also be realized by the second basket body detection mechanism 42 in the second embodiment, that is, when the slide basket is detected at the output end of the buffer area, the controller controls the moving mechanism to move the slide basket from the buffer area to the working area; if the slide basket is not detected at the output end of the buffer area, the controller does not control the moving mechanism to move the slide basket from the buffer area to the working area, and the moving mechanism automatically moves the slide basket.
As another improvement, the slide basket transfer system further comprises an auxiliary buffer area, wherein in the feeding step, the slide basket can be moved to the auxiliary buffer area, and after the slide basket on the working area is removed, the slide basket can be moved from the auxiliary buffer area to the working area. The auxiliary buffer area can increase the number of slide baskets in the whole system and does not cause the loading device to occupy too much space.
To improve the efficiency of the operation, the movement of the slide basket to the auxiliary buffer area may be performed during the loading of the slide basket with the specimen in the working area.
And a basket body detection mechanism can be further arranged to obtain the detection result of whether the slide baskets exist in the working area, the buffer area, the material placing area and the optional auxiliary buffer area, and count and output the number and/or position information of the slide baskets. And further, the number and/or the position information of the slide baskets can be displayed by controlling the human-computer interaction unit.
In implementation, a plurality of basket body detection mechanisms (for example, the first, second, third, and sixth basket body detection mechanisms shown in embodiment two) may be sequentially disposed in the slide basket conveying system, and detect whether there is an empty slide basket in a region corresponding to the current basket body detection mechanism, and send a detection result to the controller, and the controller controls the human-computer interaction unit to prompt according to the detection result, where the basket body detection mechanisms correspond to the detection regions thereof one by one. The one-to-one correspondence means that one detection area is only detected by one basket body detection mechanism, and all detection areas are sequentially connected to form the whole area from the beginning to the working position (in the system shown in the second embodiment, the whole area is the area formed by the material placing area, the buffer area and the auxiliary buffer area), and it is ensured that the slide basket in each detection area is only detected by one basket body detection mechanism, and the problem that the same slide basket is detected by two detection mechanisms at the same time, so that repeated counting is formed, and the problem that the slide basket is missed to be detected due to the fact that the distance between the basket body detection mechanisms is too large is also avoided. That is, one empty slide basket 5 corresponds to only one detection mechanism, the controller calculates the number of empty slide baskets according to the detection result of each basket body detection mechanism and feeds back the number in time, if the user finds that the number of slide baskets is insufficient, a new slide basket can be added, and therefore the state of the slide basket 5 is monitored in real time. In particular, the user can easily query the number of empty slide baskets 5 remaining through the interactive interface. When the empty slide basket 5 is insufficient to collect the number of slides to be collected in the pusher, the machine may alert the user to add the empty slide basket 5.
After the slide basket is delivered to the work area, it can be loaded with a sample into the slide basket.
And a discharging step, namely discharging the slide basket filled with the sample, taking the slide basket filled with the sample away, and performing subsequent operation.
In the discharging step, when the slide basket enters a discharging area (the discharging area can be a discharging platform or a position on the feeding device), the discharging piece is driven to move the slide basket to the discharging platform, and after the slide basket is moved to the discharging platform, the discharging piece returns to the initial position to wait for moving the next slide basket.
And after the slide basket moves to the proper position, the discharging piece returns to the initial position when the detection mechanism detects the next slide basket, namely the discharging piece does not return to the position temporarily after moving the slide basket to the proper position, and returns to the initial position to move the next slide basket when the detection mechanism detects that a new slide basket comes. So, can avoid unloading the piece back in advance, wait for next slide basket in-process unloading the piece, the slide basket on the discharge table does not have the support, and the easy collision makes slide basket aversion or backward back when follow-up slide basket of taking on the discharge table.
The method can be implemented based on the slide basket conveying system provided in the second embodiment, and of course, the method can be implemented by other structures according to the operation guidance of the above steps.
The foregoing is a more detailed description of the present invention that is presented in conjunction with specific embodiments, and the practice of the invention is not to be considered limited to those descriptions. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that a number of simple derivations or substitutions can be made without departing from the inventive concept.
