摘要： An apparatus for forming a blood droplet of a controlled, generally uniform size from a finger which has been pricked to draw blood includes a "funnel" member providing an upper edge across which the finger is drawn to deposit blood on a surface down which the blood flows under the influence of gravity to a lower edge terminating at a point. The blood flows toward the point, forms into the droplet at the point, and, owing to gravity and the surface tension of the blood, forms into the substantially uniformly sized droplet which falls onto a test strip positioned beneath the point.

摘要： A printed circuit board loader and unloader in which a printed circuit board carrier is horizontally translationally moved in a straight line along a first axis and a pick and place head unit is horizontally translationally moved above the carrier in a straight horizontal line along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis. A device stager holds a tube containing integrated circuit devices fed to it by a tube transporter. In a straight path from the opening of the tube facing the carrier is a slideway operatively connected with the tube holder. The slideway has gating and device fixing vacuum ports. The device stager is pivotable to (i) a pivot down position to slide devices from the tube onto the slideway and vacuum arrest and gate them, (ii) a pivot level position in which the devices are picked up from over the forward ports on the slideway, and (iii) a pivot up position which devices slide from the forward portion of the slideway into a tube in the tube holder of the device stager. The pick and place system loads the printed circuit board by vertically picking up devices from the level slideway, traveling horizontally to a pre-calculated position, and placing the devices in sockets on the printed circuit board on the carrier positioned at that calculated position, employing in one aspect a special zero insertion force socket opener. The pick and place system unloads the board by vertically extracting the devices from the precisely positioned board, horizontally moving them to the slideway, and vertically depositing the devices on the level slideway, which then pivots up to deposit them in a tube being loaded.

摘要： There is disclosed apparatus for aspirating and dispensing a liquid sample which includes a storage cylinder within which is included a freely moving solid cylinder. Attached to the storage cylinder is an aspirating cylinder or needle, which is inserted into the sample. Both the storage cylinder and needle are initially filled with water. Before aspirating the sample, a slight amount of water is removed from the storage cylinder resulting in air being aspirated through the needle. Then, the needle is inserted in the sample and water continues to be removed from the storage cylinder, resulting in the sample being aspirated through the needle. The aspirated sample and water are separated by the previously aspirated air, which creates a bubble in the storage cylinder. This bubble lifts the movable solid cylinder in the storage cylinder as the sample is aspirated. After a desired amount of sample is aspirated, discrete amounts of water are added to the storage cylinder, thereby causing discrete amounts of sample to be dispensed through the needle. The water pressure on the solid cylinder resting against the bubble expands the bubble against the inner surface of the storage cylinder, thereby creating a separation between the water and the sample.

摘要翻译： 公开了一种用于抽吸和分配液体样品的装置，该液体样品包括一个包含自由移动的实心圆筒的储存圆筒。 连接到储存筒是吸入筒或针，插入样品中。 储存筒和针头都开始充满水。 在吸取样品之前，从存储筒中取出少量的水，导致空气通过针吸入。 然后，将针插入样品中，继续从储存筒中取出水，导致样品通过针抽吸。 抽吸的样品和水由先前吸入的空气分离，这在存储筒中产生气泡。 当抽吸样品时，该气泡将可移动实心圆筒提升到储存筒中。 在抽出所需量的样品之后，将离散量的水加入到储存筒中，从而使离散量的样品通过针分配。 保持在气泡上的实心圆柱体上的水压将气泡扩大到存储筒的内表面，从而在水和样品之间产生分离。

摘要： An apparatus for inserting IC packages into sockets on a burn-in board and for extracting IC packages therefrom includes a plurality of loader/unloader mechanisms affixed to a rotatable platform, the platform being adapted to support one or more burn-in boards and to position sockets mounted on the burn-in boards beneath the loader/unloader mechanisms one row at a time. The loader/unloader mechanisms include a vacuum means for lifting IC packages and pneumatic cylinders for transporting the packages to and from the burn-in boards. IC packages are gravity fed along a delivery channel both to and from the loader/unloader mechanisms by rotation of the platform.
