    Abstract: An automatic analyzer has a transport device which includes a specimen rack gripping mechanism that grips the specimen rack on a first transport path on which the specimen racks are transported by the specimen rack being sandwiched between gripping plates from both sides of flanks in the transport direction to transport the specimen rack along the first transport path and a gripping width controller that controls a distance between the gripping plates of the specimen rack gripping mechanism in accordance with a width of the specimen rack. Accordingly, an automatic analyzer capable of transporting a plurality of types of the specimen racks while suppressing an increase in size of the apparatus and also an increase in cost can be provided.

    Abstract: An automatic analyzing apparatus is provided which includes a member 401 fixed at a predetermined level which presses down the sample container sealed with the sealing plug that is floated from the rack due to friction between the probe and the sealing plug when pulling out the probe from the sample container sealed with the sealing plug, and a mechanism 402 that pushes down, toward the rack, the sample container sealed with the floated sealing plug in which the sample container sealed with the floated sealing plug is transported by the transport line, and disposed on a path of the transport line until re-inspection is performed after pulling out the probe from the sample container sealed with the sealing plug.

    Abstract: An automatic analysis device in which a probe is washed in a short period of time and the amount of washing water which may be mixed in at the time of suctioning of a succeeding liquid can be decreased. Washing water is supplied to a throttle portion of a washing tank from a washing nozzle. A reagent probe is inserted into the washing tank. Washing of the outside of the reagent probe, washing of the throttle portion, and a washing operation for the inside of the reagent probe are performed while a lowering operation of the reagent probe is performed. The automatic analysis device is configured to perform a drying operation by using vacuum nozzles even when the reagent probe is lifted, and thus, washing and drying operations of the reagent probe can be sped up and can be performed in a short period of time.

    Abstract: An automatic analyzer includes a sample dispensing unit that dispenses a sample into a reaction vessel, a reagent dispensing unit that dispenses a reagent, a sample nozzle cleaning tank that cleans a nozzle of the sample dispensing unit, a reagent nozzle cleaning tank that cleans a nozzle of the reagent dispensing unit, a compressor that supplies compressed air, and cleaning water supply means that supplies cleaning water. The tanks each have an upper vent that allows a nozzle to have access for cleaning, a lower vent that drains the cleaning water, a cleaning water jet port that sprays the cleaning water to the nozzle, and a compressed air jet port that removes residual cleaning water left on the nozzle. The lower vent has an opening area wider than that of the upper vent.

    Abstract: An automatic analyzer has a washing tank providing water for washing a reagent or sample probe is. The washing water from a washing nozzle spreads from a throttle portion and is divided into right and left flows after colliding with a vent plate provided in an overflow portion of the washing tank. The washing water flows between the vent plate and the inner wall of the overflow portion, and the flows join behind the vent plate. After joining, the washing water flows downward along the vent plate and the inner wall of the overflow portion and then is drained. Because a space is created between the washing water which has collided with the vent plate and the washing water joined behind the vent plate, the washing water is prevented from completely covering the overflow portion, and the airflow can be secured during the drainage.

    Abstract: A rinse mechanism rinses reaction cuvettes with first and second detergents. An R1 reagent pipetting mechanism 8 rinses the reaction cuvettes that have been rinsed by the rinse mechanism with a special detergent. A counting unit counts and stores in a storage unit a use frequency of each reaction cuvette for a specific reagent item. A determining unit determines whether the counted use frequency exceeds a predetermined threshold N1. A control unit controls the R1 reagent pipetting mechanism such that, in a case where the counted use frequency exceeds the predetermined threshold N1, the reaction cuvettes, which have exceeded the predetermined threshold N1, are soaked with the special detergent only for a period equal to or less than a value derived by multiplying a pipetting cycle time, which indicates a period when a sample is pipetted, by the total number of reaction cuvettes and a predetermined integer.

    Abstract: To provide an automated analyzer adapted for accommodating a larger number of reagent cassettes to meet calls for increases in analytical throughput and in the number of analytical items, and thus using the accommodated reagent cassettes more efficiently. An automated analyzer body 100 includes a main reagent buffer 4 for storing a plurality of reagent cassettes each containing a reagent used for analysis and a subsidiary reagent buffer 12. A reagent cassette transfer 11 transfers the reagent cassettes from the main reagent buffer to the subsidiary reagent buffer, and vice versa. A control unit 200 operates so that when a reagent cassette that is not set in the main reagent buffer is to be used for an assigned analysis, the reagent cassette for the assigned analysis is transferred from the subsidiary reagent buffer to the main reagent buffer.

    Abstract: To provide an automatic analyzer which is not influenced by fluidity or viscosity of a sample, and which can stably dispense the sample with dispensing accuracy by determining whether a flow route including a sample probe is in a stable and suction-available state when the sample is suctioned. In suction of the sample, before the sample is suctioned, in the flow route including the sample probe, the automatic analyzer determines whether the sample is in a suction-available state or in a suction-unavailable state, and performs cleaning on the flow route when it is determined that the sample is not in the suction-available state. Since the state in the flow route including the sample probe is determined before the sample is suctioned, the automatic analyzer can repeatedly perform a dispensing operation having improved reliability, without being influenced by the fluidity or the viscosity.
