摘要: A hand-held electronic pipettor is designed particularly to be programmed and operated with one hand for the convenience of the user. It uses a capacitance touchpad control for programming, and a separate run button for the operating mode. Internal components are located so that the center of gravity of the pipettor is located within the palm of the user. Flash memory stores an empirically derived table that correlates aspiration volume to motor steps and a separate empirically derived table the correlates dispensing volumes to motor steps.

摘要: In one aspect, the invention relates to a pipette tip mounting shaft configuration and a disposable pipette tip having a matching configuration. The mounting shaft includes a locking section located above a lower sealing section. The locking section has outwardly extending locking lobes located above a stop member and a lower sealing section located below the stop member. In certain embodiments, the diameter of the mounting shaft below the stop member is reduced in order to lessen insertion and ejection forces, which is particularly helpful for hand-held multi-channel pipettors. In these embodiments, the lower sealing section contains either a frustoconical sealing section, or an annular groove and a sealing ring, such as a flouroelastomeric O-ring seal. When the mounting shaft is fully inserted into the collar of the mating disposable pipette tip, the tip locks onto the mounting shaft. The bore of the pipette tip includes a circumferential shelf or shoulder separating its upper collar from the tip sealing area which is located below the circumferential shelf. The tip collar preferably includes a locking ring located at or near the upper opening for the mounting shaft. The dimensions of the collar, and in particular the distance between its circumferential shelf and the locking ring, are selected to match the dimensions of the mounting shaft between the stop member and the upper end of the locking lobes, thus locking the pipette tip in a secure, reliable position and orientation while using ergonomic insertion and ejection forces. The locking lobes preferably include a ramp portion that gently flexes and distorts the pipette tip collar out of round as the mounting shaft is inserted in the pipette tip, rather than stretching the tip collar. The circumferential shelf on the pipette tip between the tip collar and the barrel isolates the sealing area at the upper end of the barrel from distortion, thus facilitating reliable sealing engagement between the lower sealing section of the mounting shaft and the sealing ring in the upper end of the barrel of the pipette tip.

摘要: A hand-held pipette is disclosed including a pipette tip, a piston, and a voice recognition and control system. The pipette tip is provided at one end of an elongated enclosure. The piston is received in an opposite end of the elongated enclosure. The piston is adapted for reciprocal movement within at least a portion of the elongated enclosure through a selected first stroke to aspirate a first volume of fluid into the pipette tip and to expel the thus aspirated first volume of fluid out of the pipette tip. The voice recognition and control system is for automatically adjusting the stroke of the piston from the first stroke to a second stroke responsive to voice commands such that a second volume of fluid may be aspirated into the pipette tip and the thus aspirated second volume of fluid may be expelled out of the pipette tip.

摘要: The pipetting method is directed to mounting and ejecting a disposable pipette tip. The pipetting system has one or more tip mounting shafts with an upper locking section and a lower sealing section. The upper locking section has outwardly extending lobes spaced around the mounting shaft and located above a stop member. The lower sealing section on the tip mounting shaft is located below the stop. As the mounting shaft is inserted into the collar of the disposable pipette, the collar distorts out of round and engages the lobes on the upper locking section of the tip mounting shaft. Contemporaneously, the lower sealing section of the mounting shaft seals against the barrel of the disposable pipette tip.

摘要: To increase the stereophonic potential of an ordinary stereo source, a device (20) eliminates the common signals from a stereo source. The device is installed in relation to four loudspeakers, two primary (38, 40) and two secondary (42, 44), and it includes a stereo input (34, 36) and an electric circuit that links the two secondary loudspeakers. The primary loudspeakers reproduce unaltered stereo signals and the secondary loudspeakers reproduce altered signals where (by hand: when) the circuit has eliminated the common signals from the two channels of the primary stereo source. Since all “mono” components of the sound [by hand: same amplitude, same frequency] have been eliminated from the secondary outputs, we obtain a “purely stereo” source. An additional channel (45) can be added in order to reproduce the common components of the stereo source.
