Description of the invention: - [Technical field to which the invention pertains] - The present invention relates to a fluid observation unit for obtaining a private worker suspended in a liquid and having a form of a fluid sub-poor. Flat 7° particle shape analysis [Previous technology] In/or water loss, agricultural water, Gongxiao palm, $/ Department of water, water plant, and chemical industry: Guangzhou Petrochemical Industry, Bio-industry, Food Industry Etc.: Box workers, in order to carry out quality management, etc., the shape of various particles of the vegetable temple. In particular: in the high: c use fJ mix ancient picks ... Hungry month b clothing mouth of the factory, A clothing with the A functional products, and enter, therefore 4 鲑 ^ 仃旯 imitation of small particles shape analysis . The technique for analyzing the shape of such particles, dry dispersion or wet dispersion, after dispersing the particles, directly using the shape analysis of Fang Feng', and the particles of the head micromirror are scattered in the 椤太卜尨 from the child The reason for this is that there is a problem that there is no parsing in one place due to the aggregation, adhesion, and mutual field between the particles. In the early stage of the particle--the correct topography of the particle, the method of wet-dispersing means that after the government disperses the medium, the particles of the state are photographed: grain: (dispersion ^ but 'in this method In the case of the particle binding/analysis medium, even if the (four)# Gugu subdivision is dispersed in the state of the scattered half of the teachings, there is still no focus*. For this problem, the carrier solution will be produced. The sample liquid of the particles 320011 5 200839211 is packed into a sample stream, and the sample stream is passed through the fluid observation unit to flow in a flat shape, thereby passing the particles through a microscope or the like. Moreover, this method has been used to capture the particles contained in the product stream, and to analyze the image and shape of the particles, thereby automatically performing particle image analysis of the size and shape of the particles: For example, refer to Patent Document 1 And 2). The fluid flow cell used in the particle image analysis device is a compact portion formed by tightening the width of the flow path through which the sample flow flows from both sides. A parallel portion that forms a linear flow path on the downstream side of the constricted portion is provided, and the parallel portion is provided with light for imaging (observing) particles. See Patent Document 3). [Patent Document 1] Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. Hei. No. Hei. No. 6-84243 (Patent Document 3). However, in the fluid observation unit as described above, since the light transmitting portion is provided in the flat lamp portion, the particle image analyzing device described above captures a sample stream flowing through the linear flow path. Further, such a flow is caused by a shear flow having a constant flow velocity in the plane of the parallel surface of the slab mouth/melon scorpion in the straight flow path. For example, when two particles contained in the center of the sample stream flow in a straight flow path in a state of mutual accumulation, the two particles are measured by the particle image (4) (4), and sometimes There will be no 320011 6 200839211 method to correctly detect the shape of the particles and so on. - Due to the formation of such a shear flow: the shear flow field will be produced, -,; it has the effect of rotating or stirring the particles in the _. Therefore, if the sample S'L flows through the linear flow path, it is combined with rn ^ ^ ^ ; the particles in the hydrophobic product flow are rotated and released, and the particles are moved to the non-microscope focus position. The information about the shape of the particles in a specific posture is correct to the piece, and 'in the straight flow path, because the wall =; the central part is the fastest, the closer to the wall (the closer to the fluid observation, then) The slower it becomes. As a result, the particles contained in the sample stream are in the width direction of the parallel portion, and the moving speed of each particle is relatively dependent on the relative position 3 of the particle relative to the central portion of the sample stream. Shi A, # location is different. Therefore, even in the direction of the square direction (the direction from the upstream side to the downstream side), the parallel portion is widened. The flow of the particles relative to the state in which the relative positions of the central portions of the sample flow do not overlap) is directly affected by the distribution of the flow velocity in the flow path of the sample. In the light-transmitting m particles, each other is heavy A. You return to 4 to form 2^^ and grievances, and the particle image analysis device sometimes has problems such as the shape of the particles. In other words, in the second In the state of the surface side of ηΓ, the first flow in the straight line is slower than the particle ρι, ..., in the state of the central part of the wood, the particles P2 in the straight flow path, 2 #早奋The light-transmitting portions overlap each other, and the particles and the particle-resolving device detect it for 1 h, smashing the particle image into and dividing into one particle, and as a result, there is a problem that the shape information of the nr is sometimes obtained by the helmet method. ...to the correct grain 320011 7 200839211::: In view of the above reasons, the Ming system has the advantage of being able to generate a state with high fluidity and a plurality of particles overlapping each other, to maintain a specific posture. The information fee of the state of the particle of the state, the fluid observation of the mouth machine For the purpose of the device and the device, the particle shape is divided (the means for solving the problem). The first aspect of the present invention, which has been formed by the above-mentioned problem, has a structure in which the carrier solution contains particles ("four") The sample flow through which the liquid is entrained is formed into a constricted portion formed by contracting the flow path, and a fluid observation sheet of the light passing portion and the light transmitting portion is formed, so that the flow is formed Cross section of the road: 2 = "The sample flow in the compacting system is stably flat, and the fluid flowing through the aforementioned flow path is disposed in the compacting portion, and the light transmitting portion is: The same point in the flow path (the velocity of the sample flow from the upstream of the flow path is the same as the distance from the surface of the surface, and the velocity of the flow out of the sample flow depends on the flow, and: (4) The distance is stably extended by a constant ratio in such a second aspect. Since a stable-moving sample flow can be generated, a certain amount of extension force is generated in the outflow direction to become a gentleman's stress. Thousands of face extensions, stable ^ can make the flow of sample flow When the flow of the sample flows into the flow path, the upward flow is often continuously elongated, and the plurality of particles in the path are in a state of being heavy by 4 = 320011 8 200839211 = In ancient times, because the particles contained in the sample stream often exert a vertical flow of 'two forces, the particles will not be rotated and diffused, and the particles C will be moved by the attitude of fluid resistance.丄亚t, because the cross-sectional area of the flow path is continuously reduced, the thickness of the product stream of the 乂1 can be extremely thin, and the sample flow in the ▲ body observation unit can be easily and accurately Position and Thickness According to a second aspect of the present invention, the tightening portion is formed as a fluid observation unit in which the cross section of the flow path is rectangular in a first aspect. This second type of sample system can easily produce a fluid observation unit. The third aspect of the invention forms the tightening portion so as to narrow the width of the path from both sides, and is formed such that the distance from the center of the flow path from the aforementioned direction is upstream from the tightening portion The second aspect of the fluid observation unit is reduced in inverse proportion to the king. This kind of 3 state system makes it easier to make a fluid observation unit. According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, the tightening portion is formed such that the width of the one-way path is contracted from one side, and is formed so as to be from the one direction. A fluid observation unit of a second aspect in which the width of one direction is inversely proportional to the distance from the upstream end of the aforementioned constricted portion. This $4 sadness is the same as the third aspect, making it easier to observe the fluid unit. The fifth complaint of the clothing season is the 'light transmission portion is set in the above-mentioned tightening portion observation: the first aspect on the end portion to the fourth aspect of the fourth aspect of the fluid in the fourth aspect The closer to the downstream side of the tightening portion, the 320011 9 200839211 the tightening of the upper side and the lower side of the lower side are located on the upstream side of the light transmitting portion and the smaller the:::: _ becomes smaller, and can also be > The width difference in the τ direction above the muscle path is also π p thickness thinned. As a result, the total adjacent charge can be set to two; the present invention: 'Πί; 4 result' can correct the particle image by four. The Moonlight 6 is a sample of all the components in the first aspect to the "state of the state - the state of the state" is easily observed through the fluid observation unit and the preparation::: the seventh state is a kind A particle shape analyzing device, in which the fluid observation unit of any aspect of the device is inferior to the F 2 sample to detect the portion included in the foregoing sample: = through the light.丨 “Output and release of particle shape information” The seventh aspect of the sample system can obtain a large number of correct particle and state information in a short time. In Hanoi, ^" accurately measures the shape of these particle images (the effect of the invention) several stability, and the particles in the state of the reset posture are maintained in special and borrowed from the poor, six carvings # y people 〇 汛A mouth shape, a polar fluid observation unit, and a particle shape analysis device for the melon/beam limb detection unit. When the particles in the I product stream in the I product stream are particles of the shape of the elongated 320011 10 200839211 such as fibrous particles, the particles are contained in the sample stream due to, for example, a, a, or a ... stably extending in a planar shape and flowing in the flow path - two toward the flow two]:: and ^, ,,,, and mouth to prevent the aggregation of the particles to make = fruit. ° Direction, and play the role of more accurate form information: two! Since the cross-sectional area of the flow path is reduced, the thickness of the through-flow can be extremely thin, and the position and thickness of the sample flow in the limb-measuring unit can be easily and precisely controlled. [Embodiment] Embodiments of the present invention will be described with & In addition, this embodiment is only an exemplification, and the present invention is defined by (the embodiment is not limited to the description of the embodiment.

The observation unit 30 is shown in Fig. 2, and the sample flow production unit Γ, description = The fluid observation of the light transmitting portion 322 through which the light is transmitted is set as follows: 32, and the makeup portion 33 and the particle detecting portion 34 which are disposed to sandwich the light transmitting portion 322 of the fluid observation unit & The σ and the sample flow creating unit 31 are capable of being supplied to the fluid observation unit by using a sample port supplied from the pump unit 20 = a carrier solution to prepare a sample solution in which the sample solution is encapsulated. ^ / The sample flow producing unit 31 is composed of, for example, a tubular member having a rectangular cross section through which a carrier flows, and a sample liquid nozzle inserted into a central portion of the upstream side of the tubular member and discharging the sample liquid, and capable of The sample liquid is injected into a central portion of the carrier solution for producing the official member, etc. The claw light P 33 is composed of a light source 331 such as a flash lamp and a rotation filter 332: the shutter has a high-speed shutter function. On the other hand, the particle detecting portion 34 D camera 341 and through The composition of 342, and can be seen through the source 331, and the i. + drinking team Chiyou, = shoot the light from the sub-tooth sample, and obtain the particle image, the information is output to the outside. The observation unit 30 can obtain vivid and intra-particle images in a short time and continuously by the second and particle detecting units 34', and output the images to the outside. The analysis unit 40 has a resolution wheel from the observation. The particle shadow of the unit 30 320011 12 200839211 t The diameter and maximum length of the particles contained in the sample stream are separated from the individual. The unit 4G system can be, for example, one of the four functions of the slave computer and a special computer. . Each of the casings 50 has a control signal to be transmitted to each unit to control the control unit 5. For example, the J-Men's computer and a dedicated computer may be provided, and the control unit 50 and the analysis unit 4 () may be provided. Electric moon self-construction \Second, detailed description of the fluid observation unit 32. Fig. 3 is a schematic perspective view of a fluid observation unit of the form: a shape, and Fig. 4 is a longitudinal schematic perspective view of the volume observation unit. The red fluid display unit 32 is composed of a rectangular parallelepiped member composed of a glass genus, and is provided with a rectangular upstream side opening 326' on the left side surface and on the right side surface. A downstream side opening 327 having a flat rectangular shape in the dead direction is provided. Further, in the fluid observation, the inside of the crucible 32 is provided with a squeezing P (throttle) 321 which is formed symmetrically with the center of the flow path 325, so that the flow path 325 connecting the upstream side opening 326 and the downstream side opening J 327 is up and down. The direction is tight. Further, on the downstream side of the tightening crucible 321, a light transmitting portion 322 made of a transparent member such as a transparent acrylic resin or glass is provided. In other words, in the light transmitting portion 322, the flow path is only contracted from the up and down direction. Therefore, by configuring the fluid measuring unit 32' as described above, it is possible to obtain a particle image of the particles contained in the sample stream while obtaining the effect produced by the constricting portion 321 which will be described later. Furthermore, the fluid observation unit 32 can be configured such that the two members formed by the constricted portion 321 are disposed such that the faces of the constricted portions 321 face each other, and the flow path between the two members is formed 320011 13 200839211. The two sides are called plugs of the ridge plate member, etc., ds ° • Here, the tightening portion 321 is formed such that the distance y 从 from the center 4 of the flow path 325 is represented by the LL line. y /, the distance X of the upstream end of the tight portion is inversely reduced, and specifically, it is formed such that the following formula is satisfied, and the lower tightening portion 32 is also the same. y (ax + bj type i is tight:: and b is a knife of a>°, b> 0 any constant, x is the distance from the upstream end of the constricted portion) β is thus able to form the constriction 32 The flow stability of the sample flow is: 2, and when the sample flow flows through the flow path 325, the sample flow is elongated toward the downstream side by the opening 326 toward the upstream side of the flow side) Therefore, the effect of reducing the probability that the plurality of particles are in a state of being overlapped each other is exerted. In other words, for example, if the image of the sample pl is in the state of being overlapped with each other, even if the particles pl are in the state of being overlapped with each other, the sample flow is formed in the up and down direction when the sample stream flows through the flow path 325. It is flat and faces in the outflow direction, and is continuously elongated by a certain degree of addition, so as shown in Fig. 5 (8), the particles contained in the sample stream

Therefore, the probability of detecting the particle pi盥^^ + u τ i i by the particle detector material is reduced. ', in the downward direction in the state of overlapping with each other - in 1: Road 325 also has the effect of the flow velocity distribution of the sample flow - the same as above: 4, because the sample flow system is formed into a flat shape in the up and down direction 320011 14 200839211 The direction is continuously elongated by a constant acceleration, and the particles flow into the flow path 325: 2 _ π / m of the state of :: but not overlapping each other due to the flow of the sample in the flow path 325, the speed knives The cloth 4' exerts an effect of lowering the probability that the light transmitting portions 3 overlap each other. The scorpion king and the 321 are formed so that the particles contained in the sample stream are rotated by satisfying the above formula, that is, in the inflow stream, the particles are oriented so as to be least subjected to fluid resistance in the flow path 325. An sorrow makes the particles move _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ A certain force of the ratio of & and the lower side of the constricted portion 321 is often applied to the upper side direction as a force of a ratio of a. As a result, since the particles contained in the sample stream and the direction are often applied with a certain force, the particle system moves through the flow path in a posture in which the flow direction is least subjected to fluid resistance in the flow path. Inside. Further, since the constricted portion 321 is formed so as to satisfy the above formula i, the cross-sectional area of the path is continuously reduced. Therefore, the thickness of the sample stream in the light-transmitting crucible 322 can be extremely thin by adjusting the light-transmitting portion ^, and the sample of the fluid observation sheet &&

The water port 々丨L, as explained above, is based on the particle shape analysis device, because it can reduce the probability of producing particles in which the plurality of particles overlap each other, and can orient the particles to be least subjected to fluid resistance in the flow path 325. At the attitude of 匕320011 15 200839211, the particles are moved, so that a large number of correct particle images can be obtained in a short time, and the shape information of the particle images can be measured in a short time. Furthermore, the fluid observation unit 32 can be flexibly designed according to (4); Hereinafter, the reason will be explained via a derivation process indicating an equation representing the shape of the constricted portion 321 of the fluid observation unit 32. First, if the width of the upper side opening of the upstream side opening is made H, the length from the upstream side opening 326 of the k path 325 to the downstream side opening such as the long part 321 is regarded as l, and χ = 〇 again...
