A cartridge for histological specimen slides includes a generally enclosed body and a slide holder. The body is configured for removable insertion into a specimen slide printer, and includes a slide holder receiving opening and a slide feed opening. The slide holder holds a plurality of specimen slides and is configured to be positioned within and removed from the body through the slide holder receiving opening. When loaded in the body the slide holder positions and presents the slides to the slide feed opening in the body. A memory chip for storing information relating to the slides can be mounted to the holder, and is located adjacent an access opening in the body when the holder is positioned in the body.

According to the present invention, an automatic in vitro diagnosis apparatus including an inclined rotating stirrer is an apparatus for the automatic in vitro diagnosis of a clinical specimen or a reagent. The present invention includes: a clinical specimen storage unit which stores a clinical specimen; a reagent storage unit which stores a reagent; a code reader unit which recognizes an identification code attached to the clinical specimen storage unit or to the reagent storage unit; a dispenser which suctions the clinical specimen and the reagent from the clinical specimen storage unit and the reagent storage unit, and transports the clinical specimen and the reagent which are suctioned; and a rotating stirrer which receives the clinical specimen and the reagent from the dispenser and rotates about an axis of rotation so as to stir the clinical specimen and the reagent. The axis of rotation of the rotating stirrer forms a predetermined angle with the direction of gravity, and a series of processes for storing, transporting, and stirring the clinical specimen and the reagent are integrated so as to maximize the efficiency of the stirring and the efficiency of the operations.
摘要:
An automatic apparatus is described, which is suitable for the withdrawal of portions of biological material from a parent test tube (1), mobile in a conveyor (6) of a test tube transport plant by means of transport devices (8) of single test tubes, to be loaded in one or more child test tubes (2) countermarked beforehand with suitable identification means and to be sent to different biological material analysis instruments interfaced to said transport plant. Said apparatus comprises a work bench (5) which provides a first lane (9) for stocking and filling of transport devices (8) with empty child test tubes (2), a second lane (10) for stocking parent test tubes (1), said lanes (9, 10) being selectively joined in such a way to consent the sending of single parent test tubes (1) with a predefined number of child test tubes (2) subsequently assigned to be filled with biological material drawn from the parent test tube (1) in a work point (11), and a return third lane (12) of parent test tubes (1) and child test tubes (2) filled with portions of biological material drawn from parent test tubes (1), said lanes (9, 10, 12) joining to a conveyor (6) suitable for the transport of test tubes to and from subsequent processing modules, a recruitment device (19) of empty child test tubes (2), marking and loading devices (3) of empty child test tubes (2) into empty transport devices (8) stocked in said first lane (9), a device (4) suitable for the withdrawal and distribution of portions of biological material from the parent test tube (1) to the respective child test tubes (2) queued to the idle parent test tube (1) at the work point (11) of the work bench (5), a recruitment and loading device (22) of pipettes (23) suitable for the withdrawal of portions of biological materials and their distribution in child test tubes (2), and a control unit (100) suitable to coordinate and check the devices involved in the work cycle of the described device.
摘要:
An apparatus for automatically marking laboratory test tubes in the stage of drawing biological material to be analyzed, which includes two or more distributors of test tubes of different types that are selectable by a control unit and are suitable for feeding test tubes to a test-tubes positioning device which in turn is suitable for presenting correctly positioned test tubes to a computerized labelling machine containing a printer for printing barcodes on labels. Each distributor includes an automatic drawing and discharging device for drawing and discharging single test tubes from a container of test tubes of a selected distributor to the positioning device.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for feeding histology specimen slides from a stack of the slides in a slide printer. The stack of slides includes first, next-to-be removed and second slides having adjacent surfaces. A flow of gas is applied to a location that the adjacent surfaces of the first and second slides meet when removing the first slide from the stack. The flow of gas, which may be a jet or blast of air applied through a nozzle, and which may be applied before and/or during the removal of the slide from the stack, helps un-stick the slides to enhance the feeding action.
摘要:
A device (1) is provided for orientating a plurality of laboratory sample cassettes (2) each having a marking surface (3) disposed on a main body (4) of the cassette (2). A cassette (2) is held by a clamp so that a printer can print on the marking surface (3) of the cassette (2). When the cassette (2) is released from the clamp, it is moved via a belt (13) to an opening (20) of a rotatable structure (15) in a cassette receiving position. When the cassette (2) has been received in the opening (20), the rotatable structure (15) is rotated so that the opening (20) is moved to a cassette releasing position. A rack (23) is positioned beneath the rotatable structure (15) in order to receive the cassette (2) from the rotatable structure opening (20) when the opening (20) is in its cassette releasing position. The cassette (2) is received into a rack slot (24) so that the marking surface (3) of the cassette (2) is at the top of the cassette (2). The rack (23) is then moved each time after it has received a cassette so that a successive rack slot is able to receive another cassette moved by the device (1) from the clamp and printer.
摘要:
A system and method are provided for providing information on at least one container for storing a biological sample, including: a holder configured to hold at least one biological sample container and a receiver configured to receive information relating to at least one of the container or the biological sample as well as data relating to at least one instruction for printing the information. The system and method further include a printer configured to print the information in accordance with the at least one instruction. In one embodiment, the printer is configured to print the information directly on the container. In another embodiment, the system and method further include an applicator configured to apply a label on the container and the printer is configured to print the information on the label. In another embodiment, the system and method include a detector configured to detect whether the container contains the biological sample and a processor configured to determine the manner for printing the information. In this embodiment, the determination is based, at least in part, on whether container contains the biological sample.
