Title:
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ADJUSTING ANGLE OF MICROTOME SAMPLE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3865896
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To adjust the angle of a solid sample quickly and surely by providing an angle adjusting means having center of rotation at the center of a slicing face.
SOLUTION: Under a state where a shaft 20 regulated in the direction of Z axis is shifted in Z direction by means of a cylinder and angle adjusting members X11, Y14 are clamped, central coordinates of all spherical and tubular faces (spherical face 21 of the shaft 20, recessed spherical face 13 and protruding tubular face 12 of the angle adjusting member X11, recessed tubular face 15 of the angle adjusting member Y14, protruding tubular face 16 of the angle adjusting member Y14, and recessed tubular face 18 of the body 17) are located at the center of a solid slicing face in a plane constituting the forward end of a cutter at the time of slicing process. Since displacement of a solid sample is reduced after adjustment of angle, adjusting time required before re-slicing can be shortened.
