SAMPLE-FEEDING DEVICE OF DEVICE FOR SLICING SAMPLE THIN

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accurately and smoothly feed a sample by absorbing the inclination of the sample with a simpler configuration. SOLUTION: An outer ring 23 of an automatic belt-training rolling bearing (spherical surface kinematic pair member) 22 is mounted at the tip of a feed shaft 16 that is fed intermittently by a motor 17 and a linear feeding device 18. A taper shaft 26 is engaged and fixed into an inner ring 25 of the bearing 22, a collar 28 that is provided at the lower end of a sample retention part 15 being connected in one piece with a sample 10 is brought into contact with the upper end face 26a, and the collar 28 and the taper shaft 26 are connected by a connection ring 30.
