Abstract
A feed screw is provided in a specimen-exchanging chamber connecting with a specimen chamber valve and a removable element is removed in the axial direction of the feed screw by rotation of the feed screw. The removal of the removable element makes it possible to remove a specimen holder between the specimen chamber and the specimen-exchanging chamber. It is possible to load and unload the specimen holder with the removable element. Thus, while leaving the specimen holder in the specimen chamber, only the removable element can be removed to the specimen-exchanging chamber.
