A method and apparatus for transporting single and multiple reaction vessels, wherein at least one reaction vessel (9), at least one tray (31) comprising at least two seats (27) for the at least one reaction vessel (9), and at least one gripper (44) are provided. One of the reaction vessel (9) or the tray (31) is engaged with the gripper (44) at a first position, the gripped element (9, 31) is transported to a second position and the gripper (44) is released. A similar gripping collar (16) is provided both on the reaction vessel (9) and the tray (31) for the gripper (44) to engage. At one transport stage one of the reaction vessel (9) or the tray (31) is engaged with the gripper (44) at a first position by pushing the gripper (44) from above to engage with the gripping collar (16) for the gripper (44) and in a second stage the transported element (9, 31) is disengaged from the gripper (44) by moving the gripper (44) sideways in relation to the center axis of the gripping collar (16).

A chemical analyser, a method for sample-based analysis, a device for handling cuvettes, and a loading method are provided. The chemical analyser (1) according to the invention comprises a rotatable incubator (20), in which there are openings (21) for receiving cuvettes (70), and analysis means (60) arranged around the incubator (20), as well as a loading device (40) for loading cuvettes (70) into the openings (21). The loading device (40) of the analyser (1) comprises a feed funnel (30), which is arranged to bend a straight cuvette (70) to fit the opening (21), and a ram (41), which is arranged to load a cuvette (70) into an opening (21) in the incubator (20) through the feed funnel (30).
摘要:
A method and apparatus for opening a reaction vessel having a body forming a volume for liquid, and a lid. In the method at least one reaction vessel is placed on a transport vehicle and the reaction vessel is positioned on the vehicle so that the vessel's rotation about its own axis is prevented. Then, the at least one reaction vessel is transferred on the vehicle and a guide rod, attached to the lid that is attached by a hinge to the reaction vessel, is pushed by the movement of the vehicle against a guide surface that forces the lid to turn on the hinge so that the lid is at least partially opened.
摘要:
Automatic analyzers, in which the liquids to be analyzed are in so-called reaction vessels, simultaneously acting as optically high-quality cuvettes (10), are used in laboratories for analyzing various liquids. Further described is a handling package for cuvettes (10). A removable bonding strip (100) is fastened on the rows of cuvettes (10), the strip (100) binding the rows of cuvettes (10) during transport, and being easily removable when the cuvettes (10) are loaded into the instrument. The cuvettes (10) are loaded into the instrument by supporting the package in its place from the brackets (24) located in the ends of the cuvettes (10), so that the strip (100) can be pulled off the supported package of cuvettes (10).
