摘要: A sample feeding arrangement which receives sealed sample tubes, moves them one at at time to a seal piercing and sample aspiration station, and then discharges the used tubes. This sample feeding arrangement is mounted inside a sample analyzer of the type which previously had operated semiautomatically. Receipt of a sample tube at the infeed station of this feeding arrangement initiates the repositioning of the tube to an aspiration station, which thereat enables all other handling steps of the tube, sample aspiration, and the full system cycle of the analyzer.

摘要: Improvements in a backwash system for diluting apparatus wherein a rinse solution is directed to and through a sample pick-up probe to a receptacle and therefrom to a waste depositary. Either the probe or the receptacle in turn is movable between a first uncoupled condition, along a predetermined or fixed path first to place the receptacle and the delivery end of the sample probe proximate, and second, to establish a fluid tight sealed coupling therebetween. The receptacle includes an entrance recess accommodating an apertured resilient insert which engages the delivery end of the probe to define the sealed coupling. A sensing switch is employed to assure that the rinse solution will not be dispensed as backwash unless the sealed coupling is known to have been established. The sensing switch can be presented in the path of the movable object, the switch being actuated when the movable object has completed its movement to establish the sealed coupling between the receptacle and the delivery end of the sample probe. The switch is scanned to ascertain its state and unless actuated, backwash is prevented.Either both, one or the other of said receptacle and probe are mounted for singular or cooperative combined translatory movement, simultaneously or sequentially.

摘要: A liquid diluting and transfer valve has disc like valve elements provided with faces frictionally engaged. The valve further includes passageways for passing both sample liquid and rinse liquid and a continuous groove formed in one of the respective faces. This continuous groove effectively isolates the passageway openings to the faces and is capable of blocking passage of leakage material along the face to the periphery of the engaged face.

摘要: A liquid transfer valve assembly capable of measuring and transferring plural different volumes from a sample source to defined flow paths under the influence of pressurized fluid. The preferred valve assembly includes a pair of stationary outer disc members and a movable inner disc member sandwiched therebetween, their facing surfaces sealingly frictionally engaged. Each of the discs has a central axial passage arranged for mounting on a spindle, with the sandwiched disc having a radial pin entering its axial passage for cooperation with a slotted spindle, the rotation of the spindle rotating only said sandwiched disc relative between a pair of positions. The center disc carries at least a segmenting bore pair, at least one of the bores being a measuring passage and having a precise volume. A matching port pair is provided in each of the outer discs defining flow paths through the valve arranged selectively to be intercepted by said measuring bore of the segmenting bore pair. The center disc also carries at least one exterior sample loop sealingly fixedly secured thereto and communicating to passageways formed in the disc. A flow path also is defined in said center disc to communicate to the face of said disc opposite to the face from which the exterior sample loop extends, said flow path may take the form of an internal passageway formed interior of the center disc and opening to said opposite face, or, may take the form of a groove. Plural sets of ports are formed in one of the outer discs to establish flow paths communicating to the hollow loop member in one position of the valve and to the flow path in the other condition of the valve. The other outer disc includes a generally arcuate slot for accommodating the sample loop therethrough in assembled condition of the valve, the slot being generally arcuate but including a flat wall portion to accommodate the hollow loop during the movement thereof with movement of the center disc. The center disc is provided with a circumferential notch cooperating with a mounting post to limit the extent of movement of said disc between positions. Proper establishment of the respective flow paths in the two operating positions of the valve is assured. A second external hollow loop is described and is associated with a further flow path in the center disc. Likewise, associated port sets are formed in said other outer disc to establish communication to said second sample loop in one condition of the valve. Each of the loops are of precise internal volume; each serving to measure and to transfer its liquid segment of precise volume to a selected destination. The said further flow path is established as a gallery in the form of an arcuate groove.

摘要: Improvements in a backwash system for diluting apparatus wherein a rinse solution is directed to the fluid transfer valve thereof and thence back to and through the sample pick-up probe to a receptacle and then to a waste depositary. The receptacle is mounted on a carrier, in turn mounted for movement in a track from a recessed condition, along a path directed first outward and then upward to engage the delivery end of the sample probe in a fluid tight sealed coupling. A plunger of an air cylinder effects the movement of the receptacle in the track. A vacuum operated switch is employed to assure that the rinse solution will not be dispensed as backwash unless the sealed coupling is made. Alternatively, a microswitch can be substituted for the vacuum operated switch and presented in the path of the carrier to be actuated when the carrier has moved sufficiently to establish the sealed coupling between the receptacle and the delivery end of the sample probe. In either instance, the switch is scanned to ascertain its state and unless actuated, backwash is prevented.

摘要: A rotary liquid metering and transfer valve assembly for a diluting system which includes a pair of stationary valve disc elements sandwiching a central, rotatable valve disc element, said disc elements being coaxially aligned and mounted on a spindle. One of the outer stationary elements has a first external loop secured thereto, said loop having a precise interior volume. An aspirator probe is secured to the other of said stationary elements. The central element has formed therein an axial segmenting passageway having a precise interior volume. A second external loop is secured to the center element. The second loop extends outwardly, preferably radially, of said element and has a precise interior volume. Appropriate interior passageways are provided in the outer elements for directing a liquid sample in a continuous path through the valve assembly, the path including the one segmenting passageway and the first and the second external loops. Additional interior passageways also are provided for coupling the valve assembly to sources of diluent and to exterior destinations. The central element is rotated to isolate the contents of the segmenting passageway and of the first and the second external loops and diluent is fed thereto to drive the isolated contents to said destinations. Only a single loading step is required to obtain three precise volumes of liquid sample. The valve assembly can be rinsed and continuous internals channels are provided for preventing any liquid from reaching the circumferential surface of the valve assembly.
