As shown in Figure 4, on this surperficial outer peripheral edges of cubitainer 111 and peristome 120 around be formed for the small protrusion strengthened respectively.This projection need not to be arranged on the below part of all embedded holes 128, for example from the right side vertically on, between the 4th row and the 5th row, between the 8th row and the 9th row, from above transversely, be provided with 4 altogether and get final product in the zone between the 2nd row and the 3rd row, between the 6th row and the 7th row.But, be not limited thereto, also can be provided with more or lessly.
Link parts 112 and be provided with opposed to each other, and cooperate with last cubitainer and the function of clamping seal 113,114 is provided with last cubitainer 111.In addition, provide connection to go up the function of cubitainer 111 and lower reservoir 116.Linking parts 112 has from its neighboring towards what last cubitainer erected on the approximate vertical direction integratedly and erects wall 135.As shown in Figure 4, this erects wall 135 and erects towards the position of the lateral surface that surrounds the above-mentioned outer vertical wall 124 that goes up cubitainer 111.Form the inside projection 136 that for example has circular section at this medial surface that erects wall 135.
The projection 125 of the outer vertical wall 124 of this projection 136 cubitainer 111 on being arranged at and should on be formed on the position that engages with this projection 125 between the flange 126 of cubitainer 111.Thus, the projection 136 that has the projection 125 by making cubitainer 111 and link parts 112 is carried out the chimeric incorporate function that realizes both.This projection 136 is preferably formed on this medial surface complete cycle that erects wall 135, but is not limited thereto.That is to say, also can be arranged on as on the set position of the projection 125 of the last cubitainer 111 of chimeric object.Thus, carry out chimeric operation easily, can realize suitableization of materials used.This erects wall 135 and extends to than the position of this projection 136 more by the top and the degree of not joining with the flange 126 of last cubitainer 111.Thus, strengthen this and erect wall 135 and the stable chimerism of going up cubitainer 111 and linking parts 112.
And, be provided with integratedly near the periphery of parts 112 to the direction opposite and from this maintenance wall portion 137 that hangs down downwards linking with erecting wall 135.This maintenance wall portion 137 preferably hangs down in the mode of the outside integral body of surrounding these binding parts 112.This maintenance wall portion 137 preferably constitutes by the outside surface 138 that roughly hangs down from binding parts 112 at right angles with from the square inwardly oblique inclined inner surface that erects 139 in the bottom of outside surface, and has general triangular cross section.
In addition, linking on the parts 112, when will linking parts 112 and being assembled on the cubitainer 111 be formed at this on the corresponding position of the peristome 120 of cubitainer 111, form the peristome 140 of the circular section identical with the number (being 96 in the example of Fig. 4) of this peristome 120.As shown in Figure 4, the diameter of this peristome 140 is slightly smaller than the diameter of peristome 120.This peristome 140 is made of thin petal-like guiding wall 141, and this guiding wall 141 hangs down towards the center position below of this peristome 140 integratedly from linking parts 112.The below terminal part of the guiding wall 141 that hangs down towards the center position below of this peristome 140 forms circular open portion 140.The terminal part of this guiding wall 141 extends towards the direction of the portion that retains 160 of lower reservoir 116 described later, has the function that the subject things such as nutrient solution that will feed to the peristome 120 of cubitainer 111 are directed to the portion of retaining 160 effectively.
And, in linking the upper surface of parts 112, this forms the periphery of the part of guiding wall 141, to be formed with a plurality of (being 2 in the example of Fig. 4) contact ring 142 for concentrically ringed mode roughly with this guiding wall 141.These contact rings 142 contact, push sealing part 114 with following side seal 114 and play the function that prevents sealing part generation change in location.
And, as Fig. 1, Fig. 3 and shown in Figure 6, linking on the parts 112, with above-mentioned on the embedded hole 128 corresponding positions of cubitainer 111, a plurality of (being 15 in these illustrated embodiment) stop pin 143 erects and is formed on this position from the upper surface of these binding parts 112.These stop pins 143 preferably have hollow shape.The top of stop pin 143 is the hole enlargement part 144 with hole enlargement size, and the top of this hole enlargement part 144 has the roughly such shape of abacus pearl.And, to the part that erects of hollow shape, for example the slot part with set width dimensions longitudinally is set from the top of this abacus pearl shape every 90 degree.Thus, producing on the top of this abacus pearl shape can be to the flexible elastic property of radial direction.
The angle that slot part is set also can be every 60 or 120 degree or angle in addition.Mainly be to wish can not produce the deflection of elastic property by slot part being set every equal angles.The length of stop pin 143 for when being assembled into this pin on the cubitainer 111 not from this on the outstanding degree in surface of cubitainer 111.This is in order to obtain stable stacked state when the microplate of stacked a plurality of the present application.In the embodiment shown in fig. 6, thereby stop pin 143 carries out chimeric can't the separation with respect to embedded hole 128 with so-called fixed installation state, still, finds that in for example assembling back filtrator goes wrong when waiting, and needing should bad filtrator taking-up and change.Therefore, also can suitably regulate the width dimensions of the vertical slot part that is formed at above-mentioned hole enlargement part 144, so that can as required stop pin 143 be separated from embedded hole 128.
In addition, on the position corresponding to stop pin 143 positions that links parts 112, a plurality of (being 15 in the example of Fig. 6) register pin 145 preferably forms from the lower surface one of these binding parts 112 with hanging down.This register pin 145 has more to next thin more conical shaped shape.These register pins 145 have the function that the installation site to lower reservoir 116 described later positions.And on the concentric circles of this register pin 145, pedestal 146 preferably forms with the binding parts.This pedestal 146 has as linking the function that limits the distance member of set interval usefulness between parts 112 and the lower reservoir 116.
Cubitainer 111 and link two seal members of clamping between the parts 112 on above-mentioned is last side seals 113 of being kept by last cubitainer 111 and by the following side seal 114 that links parts 112 maintenances.These seals by roughly the same surface area and roughly the same material for example the soft material of silicone etc. form, thus, container 111 and binding parts 112 are pushed respectively and are kept when the seal 113,114 up, be formed at each contact ring 127,142 engaging-in sealing part that constitute by soft material of cubitainer 111 and binding parts 112 respectively, stop the shift in position and the seal shift in position each other of seal 113,114 thus.The neighboring of these seals contacts on the medial surface of the outer vertical wall 124 of container 111 up and is held and locatees as previously mentioned.
On last side seal 113, with above-mentioned on form a plurality of (in the example at Fig. 1 being 96) circular peristome 150 respectively on peristome 120 corresponding each position of cubitainer 111.On the downside of the sealing part 113 of the periphery of these peristomes 150, be provided with stage portion 151.The shape of this stage portion 151 is consistent with the shape and the gauge of filtrator 115 with the degree of depth.The diameter of peristome 150 is roughly the same with the diameter that the bottom limited that is formed at the above-mentioned upward cone shape wall 122 of cubitainer 111.
On following side seal 114, with above-mentioned on similarly form a plurality of (in the example at Fig. 1 being 96) circular peristome 155 respectively on peristome 120 corresponding each position of cubitainer 111.The diameter of preferred these peristomes 155 is also roughly the same with the diameter that the bottom limited that is formed at the above-mentioned upward cone shape wall 122 of cubitainer 111.Therefore, following side seal 114 has the size and dimension roughly the same with last side seal 113, but stage portion such on the side seal 113 151 is not set.In addition, this time side seal 114 has the thickness roughly the same with last side seal 113.In the example of Fig. 5, consider the operation when assembling is used to keep the stage portion 151 of filtrator 115 and stage portion 151 is arranged on side seal 113, still, also this stage portion 151 can be arranged on down on the side seal 114.And, also the stage portion with half gauge of filtrator 115 peripheral parts can be arranged on respectively on side seal and the following side seal.
On lower reservoir 116, with above-mentioned on be formed with the portion that retains 160 (with reference to Fig. 4 and Fig. 5) that a plurality of (in the example at Fig. 1 being 96) generally perpendicularly hang down from the surface of this lower reservoir 116 on the peristome 120 corresponding positions of cubitainer 111.This retains portion 160 and has following function, promptly after utilizing 115 pairs of filtrators to supply to being examined material and filtering of peristome 120 of cubitainer 111, only receives and accommodate the inspection sample after this filtration.Therefore, this retains portion 160 size for the volume that can guarantee to accommodate necessary inspection sample.
And, form at the peripheral part of this lower reservoir 116 and to retain the periphery flank 161 that portion 160 extends downwards than this.The rake 162 of side-lower and step-like 163 of extending with the downwards step-like and outside roughly from the bottom of this rake 162 constituted outside this periphery flank 161 was extended to by the surface from lower reservoir 116.These periphery flanks 161 have when the microplate 110 of stacked a plurality of the present application can carry out stacked function with stable status.Therefore, the bottom of this periphery flank 161 ratio retains portion 160 more by the below.And rake 162 has basically with tight contact condition and touches angle of inclination on the inclined inner surface 139 that links parts 112.Thus, lower reservoir 116 and binding parts 112 can engage with tight state of contact.
In addition, as shown in Figure 6, on this lower reservoir 116, preferably form a plurality of (being 15 in illustrated embodiment) register pin carrier 164.This register pin carrier 164 has cone shape, and its inside surface is accepted the register pin 145 of above-mentioned binding parts 112 across both fixed gaps.The bottom of this register pin carrier 164 is an open state.
Filtrator 115 has the effect that material only screens necessary key element and sends into the portion that retains 160 of lower reservoir 116 that is examined from the peristome 120 that supplies to cubitainer 111, usually, in order to gather predetermined substance accurately, be the filtering material that is provided with uniform through hole as target.In general, form by the etching silicon chip.The diameter in the hole of filtrator 115 is corresponding to the size of required predetermined substance and determine.In addition, in order to shorten filtration time, the thickness of filtrator 115 is extremely thin filminess.For this reason, be easy to generate damage, so will be very when handling careful.But for the part that is set in microplate, the part that is housed in the stage portion 151 of side seal 113 is thick film as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5.Therefore, filtrator 115 forms from the peripheral part of the wall thickness of accommodating stage portion 151 to dip plane that the film portion of central authorities tilts gradually.In the example of Fig. 5, this filtrator 115 has rectangular shape, the stage portion 151 that is used to accept the last side seal 113 of filtrator equally also has rectangular shape, but is not limited thereto, and filtrator 115 and stage portion 151 also can be circular, oval or other shape.
When the microplate of band filtrator of assembling the present application, at first, the state that last cubitainer 111 is configured to overturn.Then, last side seal 113 is arranged on the last cubitainer 111 of this rollover states.At this moment, the stage portion 151 that should be noted in the discussion above that side seal 113 is provided with in the mode towards the top.Then, filtrator 115 is arranged on the stage portion 151 of side seal 113 on this.At this moment, filtrator 115 is with state (rollover states) configuration opposite with when work.After this, following side seal 114 is configured in the upper surface of side seal 113 and filtrator 115 on this.Be formed in the stage portion that is being used to keep filtrator 115 under the situation of side seal down, on being provided with after the side seal, be positioned on this on side seal in advance filtrator 115 being arranged on following side seal on this stage portion.At this, last side seal 113 and following side seal 114 all suitably are configured in the inboard of the outer vertical wall 124 of cubitainer 111.
Then, the upper surface that parts 112 are arranged on down side seal 114 will be linked.At this moment, these binding parts 112 are located in the mode that erects side seal 114 under the wall 135 downward also coverings with projection 136, container 111 sides push that to link parts 112 chimeric fully with the projection 125 on the outer vertical wall 124 that is arranged on cubitainer 111 until the projection 136 of these bindings parts 112 upward, and the periphery area of affirmation binding parts 112 and last cubitainer 111 is chimeric effectively then.Then, insert the embedded hole 128 of going up cubitainer 111 with being arranged at 115 stop pins 143 that link parts 112.The diameter dimension of stop pin 143 is a bit larger tham the diameter dimension of the below part 130 of embedded hole 128.But, by stop pin 143 forcibly being pressed into this below part 130, the top with abacus pearl shape that makes this stop pin 143 relies on center position, and thereby undergauge takes place because of the existence of groove, and therefore, stop pin 143 is embedded in this below part 130 easily.
If stop pin 143 further is pressed in the embedded hole 128, then stop pin 143 arrives the upper section 130 with hole enlargement size.Therefore, return to common diameter state for the top of the stop pin 143 of undergauge state before this.Therefore, this stop pin 143 is supported by the stage portion 131 of embedded hole 128 and stops stop pin to be deviate from from embedded hole.So, need to confirm that stop pin 143 is fitted in the stage portion 131 effectively.This can easily determine along axis direction moves up and down, stop pin sends when being embedded on the stage portion sound by making stop pin.
In the moment after projection 136 on the wall 135 and stop pin 143 are assembled into the appropriate location of erecting that will be set in place, the assembling that finish cubitainer 111, links parts 112, goes up side seal 113, time side seal 114 and filtrator 115 in the neighboring that links parts 112.Under this state, the contact ring 127 of lower surface that is arranged on the cone shape wall 122 of cubitainer 111 closely contacts with last side seal 113, and the contact ring 142 that is arranged on the peristome periphery that links parts 112 closely contacts with following side seal 114.And these seals 113,114 constitute and crimping mutually by soft materials such as silicone.Therefore, can stop the offset of filtrator 115 fully.In addition, last cubitainer 111 and link parts 112 and utilize undercutting (the ア Application ダ-カ Star ト) pawl chimeric and embedded hole 128 and stop pin 143 that is configured in the projection 125,136 on the complete cycle respectively chimeric and realize practical closely chimeric.
At last, lower reservoir 116 is installed.With respect under rollover states, keep wall portion 137 binding parts 112 up, lower reservoir 116 is similarly carried thereon with rollover states.At this moment, the rake 162 of lower reservoir 116 disposes in the mode that closely touches on the inclined inner surface 139 that links parts 112.According to the angle that is shaped and the material of use etc., sometimes also need to consider on the rake 162 of inclined inner surface 139 that links parts 112 or lower reservoir 116, to form O shape annular groove etc., and O shape ring etc. is set in O shape annular groove can carries out airtight parts, then, flow out in order to stop air to pass through this part, lower reservoir 116 is set.
Next, respectively locating carrier 164 location and being pressed into the position of each stop pin 143 that links parts 112 lower reservoir 116.The interval 170 that the register pin carrier 164 of lower reservoir 116 separates narrow cone shape is configured in the periphery of the register pin 145 that links parts 112.At this moment, the portion that retains 160 of lower reservoir 116 disposes in the mode that the guiding wall 141 formed peristomes 140 with binding parts 112 are complementary.Under this state, as Fig. 4 and shown in Figure 6, between lower reservoir 116 and binding parts 112, form small gap, this gap forms path 171.This shows, link that wiping that parts 112 and lower reservoir 116 utilize the inclined inner surface 139 that is arranged on periphery separately and rake 162 is closed or wait and chimeric with airtight conditions by O shape ring, in the dip plane in addition then be to limit small interval 170 and path 171 between the two.And, in order to keep this path 171, linking formation pedestal 146 on the parts 112, these pedestals 146 contact with lower reservoir 116 and prevent that path 171 from collapsing under pressure.As mentioned above, finish the assembling of the microplate 110 of band filtrator.
The microplate of finishing assembling turns back to normal position shown in Figure 2, stacked in order keeping.Carrying out under the stacked situation, be arranged at flange 126 on the last cubitainer 111 of below microplate be arranged on above on the stacked flank 85 of step-like 163 inboard of microplate, thereby keep microplate effectively.Therefore, can be in order with stacked each microplate of stable posture.
Microplate for can in a large number production the present application applies telltale mark on each part, so that assembly mechanical can and carry out carrying out reference behind the correct location of each part with reference to the position of each part.Thus, can realize the robotization of assembling operation, can produce in a large number.Especially, in the application's microplate, because flimsy filtrator 115 is important factors in assembling operation with respect to the positioning operation of last cubitainer 111, so on the bight of filtrator 115 self or accept the mark that applies the particular group holding position on the parts (for example bight of seal) of this filtrator, can carry out the suitable location of this filtrator 115, this point is very important.
Next, the using method to the microplate 110 of the band filtrator of the embodiment 1 of the present application describes.As shown in Figure 2, the microplate 110 with a band filtrator is configured on both allocations of level.Then, utilize suitable utensils such as suction pipe will be examined the peristome 120 that material supplies to cubitainer 111.In the microplate 110 herein, can be that 96 corpse or other object for laboratory examination and chemical testing are gathered as the inspection sample simultaneously with the number of peristome 120.Fig. 4 below with reference to the section that amplifies expression peristome 120 describes, supply in the peristome 120 that the cone shape wall 122 by last cubitainer 111 limits be examined that material drips to that stage portion 151 by last side seal 113 is kept and the thin filtering surface by the central authorities of the filtrator 115 that descends side seal 114 clampings on.At this, can only make inspection sample by this filtrator 115 with set characteristic.The guiding wall 141 that garbled like this inspection sample is bonded parts 112 guides and accommodates in the portion that retains 160 of lower reservoir 116.
After having accommodated a certain amount of inspection sample, only the lower reservoir 116 with microplate 110 separates quietly from linking parts 112.This detached job can be by catching lower reservoir 116 periphery flank 161 and the maintenance wall portion 137 that links parts 112 easily carry out to being pulled away from towards upper and lower.Noting not making the portion that the retains 160 interior inspection samples of the lower reservoir that is housed in such separation to overflow on one side, will check that sample be transported to the set inspecting stand of subsequent processing, herein begin the detailed inspection of sample on one side.
Because the mesh size of the filtrator 115 that uses in the present application, may cause checked property to be blamed in by filtrator 115, be examined the problem that material generation rerum natura changes during this time.For this reason, in the microplate 110 of the present application, in order promptly to carry out filtration operation enough as far as possible with respect to checked property mass-energy, the portion that retains 160 to lower reservoir 116 of being provided with provides negative pressure, make and be examined the mechanism that material forcibly moves by filtrator, so that be housed in checked property mass-energy in the peristome 120 enough promptly by filtrator 115.
That is to say that the bottom of register pin carrier 164 of lower reservoir 116 of keeping the microplate of horizontality is an open state, connect the mechanism of decompressor with airtight conditions to the not shown a plurality of attraction portion that is communicated with it.Like this, start this mechanism of decompressor and begin decompression.As a result, the air in the portion that retains 160 of filtrator 115 belows is discharged from by being limited to the path 171, the interval 170 that link between parts 112 and the lower reservoir 116.The pressure that retains portion 160 becomes negative pressure, be examined material by filtrator 115 being forced to property be attracted to the inboard of the portion of retaining 160.Therefore, the set material that is examined in the material is promptly accommodated in the portion of retaining 160 by filtrator 115.At this moment, be inhaled in the above-mentioned path, on binding parts 112, guiding wall 141 be set in order to stop the inspection sample that has passed through filtrator 115.This guiding wall 141 when the inspection sample guiding that will pass through filtrator 115 retains portion 160, also played weaken air flow to the influence of this inspection sample so that this inspection sample can not be inhaled into the effect in the path.

Fig. 7 is the vertical view of microplate 40 of the band filtrator of the present application.As shown in the figure, the surface of this microplate 40 has rectangular shape, and integral body has for example long limit (120~150mm) * minor face (80~100mm) * thickness (rectangular parallelepiped about 10~30mm).But for a person skilled in the art, this size and dimension obviously can change according to purposes and other requirements.Therefore, the surface configuration of the microplate 40 of the band filtrator of the present application for example, also can be circle or oval except oblong-shaped shown in Figure 7 and other rectangular shapes.But, in the following description, the microplate of above-mentioned rectangular shape is described.In this microplate 40, be the peristome 50 that disposes a plurality of (are 12 * 8 in the example at Fig. 7, amount to 96) on whole of upside in face side, nutrient solution (for example the blood of Cai Jiing etc. be examined material) supplied in the microplate 40 by these peristomes 50.
At length inquire into the structure of the microplate 40 of the present application below with reference to Fig. 8~Figure 12.Especially as shown in Figure 9, the microplate 40 of the present application has: the last cubitainer 41 that is formed with above-mentioned peristome 50; Periphery is chimeric and be fastened on the intermediate receptacle on the cubitainer 41 42 on this; Be configured in the lower reservoir 43 of the downside of this intermediate receptacle 42; Be clamped in last side seal 44 and the following side seal 45 gone up between cubitainer 41 and the intermediate receptacle 42; Be configured in the filtrator 46 of both allocations of the last side seal 44 that joins with last cubitainer 41; And be configured between above-mentioned intermediate receptacle 42 and the lower reservoir 43 auxiliary sealing member 47.
From Fig. 8 and Figure 10 as can be known, last cubitainer 41 and intermediate receptacle 42 have roughly the same sectional area, and lower reservoir 43 has the sectional area that is a bit larger tham these containers.In addition, as shown in Figure 9, last side seal 44 and following side seal 45 dispose in the mode that is enclosed in the cubitainer 41.And the filtrator 46 that is configured in the side seal 44 has and the roughly the same sectional area of above-mentioned peristome 50 sectional areas, in illustrated embodiment, has disposed 96 filtrators 46 altogether at the following quadrate part of peristome 50 correspondingly with peristome 50.And auxiliary sealing member 47 disposes in the mode that is enclosed in the intermediate receptacle 42.At this, last cubitainer 41, intermediate receptacle 42 and lower reservoir 43 form by having the stable chemical characteristic and the plastic material of elastically deformable (for example acrylic resin).
In addition, seal 44,45,47 is formed by the soft material with stable chemical characteristic (for example silicone) equally.And all these containers and seal are preferably formed by transparent material.Filtrator 46 for example can form by the etching silicon chip.In the following description, in order to understand structure easily, the part that seal 44,45,47 is divided into three splits is put down in writing, but, be not limited thereto, for example also can utilize unlike material to be shaped in advance or embedded shaping etc. is bonded on the top plate portion of lower reservoir 43 with auxiliary sealing member 47, improve assembling operation thus.In addition, keep form by changing filtrator, thus seal 44,45 is integrally formed and form monomer and realize the minimizing of number of spare parts and the facilitation of assembling operation.
To describe each inscape that forms the microplate 40 of being with filtrator in order below.
On whole of the last cubitainer 41 of Figure 13~shown in Figure 180, roughly dispose circular open portion 50 with required identical sectional area (Fig. 7~Fig. 9, Figure 12~Figure 14) equably.These peristomes 50 are as shown in Fig. 6 and Figure 12 are clear and definite, and both sinking with respect to vertical lower by the surface portion from last cubitainer 41 integratedly towards rear side, the cone shape wall 51 of sizing L1 (Fig. 9) forms.And, as Fig. 8~Figure 10, Figure 14, shown in Figure 16, whole outside on cubitainer 41 surfaces on this, both generally perpendicularly extending towards the below from this surface, the outer vertical wall 52 of sizing L2 (Fig. 9) (Fig. 9, Figure 18) forms.In addition, on the lateral surface of this outer vertical wall 52, be formed with outside projection 53 (Fig. 9, Figure 18) with circular section.This projection 53 is preferably formed on the lateral surface complete cycle of this outer vertical wall 52, still, also is not limited thereto, and also can be configured in off and on the complete cycle of this lateral surface.
In addition, as shown in Figure 9, the outside of the outer vertical wall 52 of cubitainer 41 is formed with flange 54 towards radial direction foreign side on this, and this flange 54 has the function of the end of protection intermediate receptacle 42.And, on the face that in the lower surface portion of above-mentioned each cone shape wall 51, joins, roughly forming a plurality of (being 2 in illustrated embodiment) downward contact ring 55 (Fig. 9 and Figure 15) on the concentric circles with last side seal 44.These ring 55 contacts go up side seal 44 upper surface, push side seal this on and play the function that prevents sealing part generation change in location.
As Figure 13, Figure 16 and shown in Figure 17, on the container 41, form a plurality of embedded holes 56 in the zone between peristome 50 up.In example shown in Figure 13, this embedded hole 56 from the right vertically on, the 2nd row and the 3rd row between, the 4th row and the 5th row between, the 6th row and the 7th row between, the 8th row and the 9th row between and the 10th row and the 11st row between, from above transversely, the 2nd row and the 3rd row between, the 4th row and the 5th row between, the 6th row and the 7th row between the zone in, be provided with 15 altogether, but be not limited thereto.Also can be provided with more or lessly.Especially as shown in figure 17, this embedded hole 56 is formed by the hole of the circular section that hangs down with certain diameter from the surface of last cubitainer 41.This hole is slightly smaller than the diameter of above-mentioned peristome 50 by diameter upper section 57, diameter than this upper section littler and diameter along with enlarge downwards and gradually below part 58 and the stage portion 59 of extending towards horizontal direction between part 57 and the below part 58 up constitute.Why diameter is in order easily stop pin 67 to be imported embedded hole 56 along with enlarging downwards and gradually to below part 58.As Fig. 9, Figure 13 and shown in Figure 180, on this surperficial outer peripheral edges of cubitainer 41 and peristome 50 around be formed for the small protrusion 77 strengthened respectively.
The intermediate receptacle 42 of Figure 19~shown in Figure 25 is provided with opposed to each other with the downside of last cubitainer 41, as Fig. 8~Figure 12 illustrates expressly, has and cooperates with last cubitainer 41 and the function of side seal 44 and following side seal 45 in the clamping.In addition, intermediate receptacle 42 also has the function that interconnects cubitainer 41 and lower reservoir 43.As Fig. 9, Figure 22 and Figure 25 illustrated expressly, intermediate receptacle 42 had from its neighboring towards last cubitainer 41 and erects wall 60 what the approximate vertical direction erected integratedly.As shown in Figure 9, this erects wall 60 and erects towards the position of the lateral surface that surrounds the above-mentioned outer vertical wall 52 that goes up cubitainer 41.Form the inside projection 61 that for example has the circular section at this medial surface that erects wall 60.The outside projection 53 of the outer vertical wall 52 of this projection 61 cubitainer 41 on being arranged at and should between the flange 54 of cubitainer 41, be formed on this on the position that the upper section of outer process 53 engages.
Thus, the outside projection 53 by making cubitainer 41 and the inside projection 61 of intermediate receptacle 42 are carried out chimeric, can realize that the tight inlay card of two containers closes.This projection 61 is preferably formed on this medial surface complete cycle that erects wall 60, but is not limited thereto.That is to say, also can only be arranged on as on the set position of the projection 53 of the last cubitainer 41 of chimeric object.Thus, go up the chimeric operation of cubitainer 41 and intermediate receptacle 42 easily, can realize the economization of materials used.This erects wall 60 and extends to than the position of this projection 61 more by the top and the degree of not joining with the flange 54 of last cubitainer 41.Thus, strengthen this and erect wall 60 and the stable chimerism of going up cubitainer 41 and intermediate receptacle 42.
And, as shown in Figure 9, near the outside of intermediate receptacle 42, be provided with integratedly towards the direction opposite and from this maintenance wall portion 62 that hangs down downwards with erecting wall 60.This maintenance wall portion 62 preferably hangs down in the mode of the outside integral body of surrounding this intermediate receptacle 42.This maintenance wall portion 62 of extending downwards as shown in Figure 9, preferably extends downwards from the inside part that erects wall 60 that extends upward.This is in order to satisfy the functional requirement of intermediate receptacle 42, not equal to be the requirement that is shaped in order to satisfy.In addition, on intermediate receptacle 42, when being assembled into this intermediate receptacle 42 on the cubitainer 41 be formed at this on the corresponding position of the peristome 50 of cubitainer 41, form the peristome 63 (Fig. 9, Figure 19 and Figure 23) of the circular section identical with the number (being 96 in illustrated embodiment) of this peristome 50.
As shown in Figure 9, the diameter of these peristomes 63 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the peristome 50 that is formed at cubitainer 41.This peristome 63 is made of thin petal-like guiding wall 64, and this guiding wall 64 hangs down towards the center position below of this peristome 63 integratedly from middle container 42.The below terminal part of these guiding walls 64 provides circular lower opening portion 65.The terminal part of this guiding wall 64 extends to the lower position that this retains the pars intermedia of portion 80 at least towards the direction of the portion that retains 80 of lower reservoir 43 described later, subject materials such as nutrient solution with the peristome 50 that will feed to cubitainer 41 are directed to the function of the portion of retaining 80 effectively, simultaneously, have and prevent that the subject material from dispersing with respect to this top wall that retains portion 80 and preventing to be housed in this and retain the function that the subject materials in the portion 80 flow backwards.And, in the upper surface of this intermediate receptacle 42, form on the peripheral part of each peristome 63, to be formed with the contact ring 66 (Figure 23) that a plurality of (being 2 in illustrated embodiment) make progress for concentrically ringed mode roughly with each peristome 63.These contact rings 66 contact, push sealing part 45 with the lower surface of following side seal 45 and play the function that prevents sealing part 45 generation change in location.
And, shown in Figure 11, Figure 22, Figure 24 A, Figure 24 B etc., on intermediate receptacle 42, with above-mentioned on the corresponding position of embedded hole 56 (Figure 13) of cubitainer 41, a plurality of (being 15 in illustrated embodiment) stop pin 67 erects and is formed on this position from the upper surface of this intermediate receptacle 42.These stop pins 67 preferably have the structure that is divided into a plurality of parts.That is, shown in Figure 24 A, stop pin 67 is made of a pair of sheet 68 that erects with symmetrical shape, and this is a pair of to erect the certain intervals 48 of sheet spaced-apart slots shape and erect.Form the hole enlargement part 69 with hole enlargement size on the top that respectively erects sheet 68, therefore, the top that erects sheet 68 has the roughly such shape of abacus pearl.Thus, producing on the top of this abacus pearl shape can be to the flexible elastic property of radial direction.
In the example of Figure 24 A and Figure 24 B, show this and erect the structure of sheet 68 for being divided into two, but be not limited thereto, for example also can be along the longitudinal have the slot part of set width dimensions, and the angle that slot part is set also can be every 60 or 120 degree or angle in addition every 90 degree settings.Mainly be to wish to come the feasible deflection that can not produce elastic property by slot part being set every equal angles.As shown in figure 17, the length of stop pin 67 for during these stop pins being assembled into the embedded hole 56 (Figure 11 and Figure 17) of cubitainer 41 time not from this on the surface of cubitainer 41 degree of giving prominence to.For stop pin 67 being easily mounted in the embedded hole 56 of cubitainer 41, as shown in figure 11, the below part 58 of embedded hole 56 forms from descending up the shape of undergauge gradually, thus, if stop pin 67 is pressed into embedded hole 56, thus then the hole enlargement part 69 of stop pin 67 flexibly gradually undergauge can easily be pressed in the embedded hole 56.
In addition, if the hole enlargement part of this stop pin 67 69 arrives the stage portion 59 of embedded hole 56, then hole enlargement part 69 is utilized elastic force and hole enlargement automatically, thereby is engaged to easily on this stage portion 59.In Figure 11 and embodiment shown in Figure 17, thereby stop pin 67 carries out chimeric can't the separation with respect to embedded hole 56 with so-called fixed installation state, but, find that in for example assembling back filtrator goes wrong when waiting, needing should bad filtrator taking-up and change.Therefore, also can suitably regulate the width dimensions of the vertical slot part that is formed at above-mentioned hole enlargement part 69, so that can as required stop pin 67 be separated from embedded hole 56.
Around each guiding wall 64 that hangs down from middle container 42, with the contact ring 70 of downward a plurality of (being 4 layers in the example of Fig. 9) substantially elliptical that is shaped of the mode of surrounding these guiding walls 64.The configuration state of contact ring 70 is illustrated in Fig. 9, Figure 23 and shows among the Figure 20 at the back side of intermediate receptacle 42.Thereby these contact rings 70 contact, push from the top this auxiliary sealing member 47 and play auxiliary sealing member 47 is correctly navigated to set locational effect with the upper surface of auxiliary sealing member 47 described later.At this, why the configuration with this contact ring 70 is made as substantially elliptical, is because the peristome 94 of this auxiliary sealing member 47 has substantially elliptical equally.A plurality of contact rings 70 are not limited to 4 layers, and this situation with above-mentioned contact ring 55,66 is identical.
Two seal members of clamping between cubitainer 41 and the intermediate receptacle 42 on above-mentioned, as shown in Figure 9, the last side seal 44 that to be upper surface kept by last cubitainer 41 and the back side are by the following side seal 45 of intermediate receptacle 42 maintenances.These seals by roughly the same surface area, thickness and roughly the same material for example soft material such as silicone form, thus, container 41 and intermediate receptacle 42 are pushed respectively and are kept when the seal 44,45 up, be formed at each contact ring 55,66 engaging-in sealing part that constitute by soft material of cubitainer 41 and intermediate receptacle 42 respectively, stop the shift in position and the seal shift in position each other of seal 44,45 thus.The neighboring of these seals 44,45 contacts on the medial surface of the outer vertical wall 52 of container 41 up and keeps and be positioned at this place as previously mentioned.
Below these seals 44,45 are described.
On the last side seal 44 as Figure 33~shown in Figure 37, with above-mentioned on form a plurality of (being 96 in illustrated embodiment) circular peristome 71 (Figure 33) respectively on peristome 50 corresponding each position of cubitainer 41.These peristomes 71 connect seal 44 self ground and form.And, be provided with the stage portion 72 (Figure 34 and Figure 36) of rectangular shape in the rear side of the sealing part 44 of the periphery of these peristomes 71.The shape of this stage portion 72 is roughly consistent with the shape and the gauge of filtrator 46 described later with the degree of depth.In illustrated embodiment, because hypothesis is the filtrator of rectangular shape, so stage portion 72 is rectangular shapes, still, under the situation of using round-shaped filtrator, what stage portion 72 was a diameter greater than peristome 71 is round-shaped.The diameter of preferred peristome 71 is roughly the same with the diameter that the bottom limited that is formed at the above-mentioned upward cone shape wall 51 of cubitainer 41.This is for the leakage that prevents to be examined material etc., can carries out the inspection of not having waste.
Between the peristome 50 of sealing part 44, form a plurality of (being 15 in illustrated embodiment) and connect sealing sized opening 73 part, that size is a bit larger tham this peristome 50.This opening 73 is used to accept the below part 58 (Figure 17) of the embedded hole 56 that is formed on the cubitainer 41.And the bight of side seal 44 is provided with the recess 74 of location usefulness on this.This recess both is formed on as shallow recess on the allocation as shown in figure 37.In illustrated embodiment, at the upper surface (Figure 33) of seal 44 and the different bights of the back side (Figure 34) recess is set, but is not limited thereto.Also can respectively be provided with one in four bights of upper surface and lower surface, be provided with 8 altogether, perhaps also can only be provided with one at single face.Its reason is that these recesses 74 have the function of special datum point when filtrator 46 being equipped on the peristome 71 of sealing part 44, and the difference of carrying mechanism because of filtrator requires various reference points.
On following side seal 45 shown in Figure 38, with last side seal 44 similarly, with above-mentioned on also form a plurality of (being 96 in illustrated embodiment) circular peristome 75 respectively on peristome 50 corresponding each position of cubitainer 41.The diameter of preferred these peristomes 75 is also roughly the same with the diameter that the bottom limited that is formed at the above-mentioned upward cone shape wall 51 of cubitainer 41.Between the peristome 75 of this time side seal 45, a plurality of (being 15 in illustrated embodiment) opening 76 that size is a bit larger tham the size of this peristome 75 is set with also connecting the sealing part.This opening 76 is used for accepting the below part 58 (Figure 17) of the embedded hole 56 that is formed on cubitainer 41.
Though following side seal 45 has the size and dimension roughly the same with last side seal 44, but stage portion such on the back side of side seal 44 72 is not set, peristome 75 and opening 76 are the states that penetrate into the back side from upper surface, therefore, the upper surface of following side seal 45 and the back side have roughly the same shape.In addition, this time side seal 45 has the thickness roughly the same with last side seal 44.In illustrated embodiment, consider the operation when assembling is used to keep the stage portion 72 of filtrator 46 and stage portion 72 is arranged on side seal 44, still, also this stage portion 72 can be arranged on down on the side seal 45 and at this place and accommodate filtrator 46.And, also the stage portion with only about half of gauge of filtrator 46 peripheral parts can be arranged on respectively on side seal and the following side seal, both be fixed on by two seal clamping filtrators 46 on the allocation.
Below with reference to Figure 26~Figure 32 lower reservoir 43 is described.On lower reservoir 43, with above-mentioned on be formed with on the peristome 50 corresponding positions of cubitainer 41 a plurality of (being 96 in illustrated embodiment) from the surface of this lower reservoir 43 portion that retains 80 (with reference to Fig. 9, Figure 12, Figure 29) that hangs down of one generally perpendicularly.These retain portion 80 and have following function, promptly after utilizing 46 pairs of filtrators to supply to being examined material and filtering of peristome 50 of cubitainer 41, only receive and accommodate the inspection sample after this filtration.Therefore, this retains portion 80 size for the volume of the inspection sample that can guarantee to accommodate necessary amount.And, retain the periphery flank 81 that portion 80 extends downwards than this in that the peripheral part of this lower reservoir 43 is integrally formed.This periphery flank 81 by the surface from lower reservoir 43 extend to first of foreign side below hang down portion 82, further extend downwards via the stage portion of approximate horizontal expansion from this first bottom of hanging down portion 82 second hang down portion 83 and the 3rd portion 84 that hangs down of further extending via the stage portion of approximate horizontal expansion from this second bottom of hanging down portion 83 constitutes downwards.
These periphery flanks 81 have stacked can be when promptly piling up the microplate 40 of a plurality of the present application with the stacked function of stable status.That is to say, as shown in figure 27, the 3rd the hang down horizontal inside dimensions L3 of portion 84 and lateral dimension L5 and the longitudinal size L5 that longitudinal medial size L4 is substantially equal to last cubitainer 41 shown in Figure 13 respectively, and, stable stacked in order to guarantee, as shown in figure 27, hang down the 3rd and form a plurality of stacked flanks 85 (being 10 in illustrated embodiment) on the interior sidewall surface of portion 84.Thereby engaging to keep with the neighboring of last cubitainer 41, these stacked flanks 85 make stacked stable status when stacked.In addition, first the hang down physical dimension of portion 82 is slightly littler than the inside dimensions of the maintenance wall portion 62 of intermediate receptacle 42, as shown in Figure 9, provides both can closely chimeric relation basically.
As previously mentioned, on lower reservoir 43, form a plurality of portions 80 that retain.From above observe these and retain under the situation of portion 80, as shown in figure 26, a pair of ventilating part 90 forms on this retains the diametric(al) of portion 80 opposed to each other.As shown in figure 30, these ventilating parts 90 are formed on the neck hole enlargement inclined-plane 92 that the upper surface 91 of container 43 extends downwards of the portion of retaining 80, and extend on the direction with respect to these upper surface 91 approximate vertical.As a result, the top open end of ventilating part 90 is communicated with hole enlargement inclined-plane 92 and opens to this place.Therefore, can make the inside of the portion that retains 80 shown in curve 93, become decompression state via ventilating part 90 by giving negative pressure from the top of the portion of retaining 80 to the outside of the portion of retaining 80.Figure 31 represents hole enlargement inclined-plane 92 and the upper end ventilating part 90 to this place's opening.In addition, Figure 32 represents the outside opened state of ventilating part 90 to the portion of retaining 80.Figure 27 represents from the figure of beneath lower reservoir 43.
At this, retaining portion 80, to illustrate than the portion that retains 80 shown in Figure 26 be greatly because Figure 27 represents the outer diameter part of the portion of retaining 80 and Figure 26 represents the inside diameter of the portion of retaining 80.In Figure 27, represent from beneath hole enlargement inclined-plane 92 and state when being formed on this ventilating part 90 to the outstanding part of radial direction foreign side opposed to each other from the outer diameter part of the portion of retaining 80 along diametric(al).In Figure 30 and Figure 31, the shape that retains portion 80 is more or less different.That is to say that in Figure 30, the portion integral body of retaining forms narrowly, and in Figure 31, the portion that retains integral body than Figure 24 forms widely.This be because, as its profile direction shown in Figure 26, Figure 30 represents along the section of the direction observation that connects a pair of ventilating part, be will the portion of retaining in order to form the hole enlargement inclined-plane to press to the state representation of this bevel direction, and Figure 31 represents not have the influence on the hole enlargement inclined-plane that forms the portion that retains along the section of observing with the direction of the direction quadrature that is connected a pair of ventilating part.The situation that this pass ties up to Figure 12 and Fig. 9 also is same.
Between intermediate receptacle 42 and lower reservoir 43, carrying auxiliary sealing member shown in Figure 39 47.Auxiliary sealing member 47 is by forming with the roughly the same material of last side seal 44 and following side seal 45, and thickness and area are also roughly the same with these seals, and, also identical at the number of the peristome 94 of this formation.Wherein, peristome 94 is shaped as the identical substantially elliptical of configuration shape with the contact ring 70 that is arranged on intermediate receptacle 42 back sides.But size will be slightly smaller than contact ring 70.This is because as can be seen from Fig. 9, this peristome 94 than the position of contact ring 70 more in the inner part.In addition, why this peristome 94 being formed substantially elliptical, is to be formed on the portion that retains 80 ventilating part 90 on every side that is arranged on the intermediate receptacle 42 in order not stop up.Peristome 94 penetrates into ground, the back side from upper surface and forms, so the upper surface of auxiliary sealing member 47 and the back side have roughly the same shape.
Filtrator 46 (Fig. 9) has the effect that material only screens necessary key element and sends into the portion that retains 80 of lower reservoir 43 that is examined from the peristome 50 that supplies to cubitainer 41, usually, in order to gather accurately but be provided with the filtering material of uniform through hole as the predetermined substance of target.In general, form shape by the etching silicon chip.The diameter in the hole of filtrator is corresponding to the size of required predetermined substance and determine.In addition, in order to shorten filtration time, filtrator 46 is extremely thin filminess.For this reason, be easy to generate damage, so when handling, want extreme care careful.But, be fixed in the part of microplate, promptly in illustrated embodiment, be housed in be formed at Figure 36 on the part of stage portion 72 on the side seal 44, as Fig. 9 with Figure 12 shows that thick film.Filtrator 46 forms the rake 49 that tilts gradually to the film portion of central authorities from the peripheral part of the wall thickness of accommodating stage portion 72.In illustrated embodiment, this filtrator 46 has rectangular shape, and the stage portion 72 that is used to accept the last side seal 44 of this filtrator equally also has rectangular shape, but as previously mentioned, is not limited thereto.
When the microplate of band filtrator of assembling the present application, at first, the inversion state that last cubitainer 41 is configured to overturn.Then, last side seal 44 is arranged on the last cubitainer 41 of this inversion state.At this moment, the stage portion 72 that should be noted in the discussion above that side seal 44 is provided with in the mode towards the top.Then, filtrator 46 is arranged on the stage portion 72 of side seal 44 on this.At this moment, filtrator 46 is with state (inversion state) configuration opposite with when work.Thin in the extreme owing to filtrator 46 integral body, especially fragile in the extreme at the circular middle body at peristome 71 places that are disposed at Figure 34, therefore, when handling, require to cause attention to greatest extent.In filtrator 46, never utilize rake 49 to be connected to the part between the thick slightly peripheral part that is housed in the stage portion 72 with the thin part of the central authorities of this peristome 71.After this, following side seal 45 is configured in the upper surface of side seal 44 and filtrator 46 on this.Be formed in the stage portion that is being used to keep filtrator 46 under the situation of side seal down, on being provided with after the side seal, be positioned on this on side seal in advance filtrator 46 being arranged on following side seal on this stage portion.At this, last side seal 44 and following side seal 45 all suitably are configured in the inboard of the outer vertical wall 52 of cubitainer 41.
As other order, also can be after carrying filtrator 46 on the side seal 44 in advance, the last side seal 44 of this band filtrator is set on the last cubitainer 41 that is inversion state.Therefore, recess 74 is arranged on the different bights of the upper surface and the lower surface of side seal 44 on this, can suitably control the position of side seal 44.That is to say,, as required, require the reference position of sealing part 44 is finely tuned for never illustrated filtrator is carried the appropriate location that the continuous filtrator of supplying with 46 of mechanism is configured to side seal 44.In this case, act on this recess 74, filtrator 46 always can be configured in the appropriate location of side seal 44 by making suitable position control mechanisms such as indicator.After side seal is configured on the cubitainer 41 on will be with filtrator, carry side seal 45 down, the moving of restriction filtrator.
Then, intermediate receptacle 42 is arranged on down the upper surface of side seal 45.At this moment, this intermediate receptacle 42 is located in the mode that erects side seal 45 under the wall 60 downward also coverings with projection 61, to push intermediate receptacle 42 chimeric fully with the projection 53 on the outer vertical wall 52 that is arranged on cubitainer 41 until the projection 61 of this intermediate receptacle 42 for container 41 sides upward, confirms that then intermediate receptacle 42 and last cubitainer 41 are chimeric effectively at periphery area.Then, 15 stop pins 67 that are arranged at intermediate receptacle 42 are inserted the embedded hole 56 of going up cubitainer 41.The diameter dimension of stop pin 67 is a bit larger tham the diameter dimension of the below part 58 of embedded hole 56.But, by stop pin 67 forcibly being pressed into this below part 58 of undergauge gradually, rely on center position thereby the top with abacus pearl shape that makes this stop pin 67 utilizes the space with interval 48 undergauge takes place, therefore, stop pin 67 is embedded in this below part 58 easily.And if stop pin 67 is pressed in the embedded hole 56, then stop pin 67 arrives the upper section 57 with hole enlargement size.Therefore, return to common diameter state for the top of the stop pin 67 of undergauge state before this.Therefore, this stop pin 67 is supported by the stage portion 59 of embedded hole 56 and stops stop pin to be deviate from from this.Thus, need to confirm that stop pin 67 is fitted in the stage portion 59 effectively.This can easily determine along axis direction moves up and down, stop pin sends when being embedded on the stage portion sound by making stop pin.
In the moment after projection 61 on the wall 60 and stop pin 67 are assembled into the appropriate location of erecting that will be set in place, finish cubitainer 41, intermediate receptacle 42, go up side seal 44, the assembling of side seal 45 and filtrator 46 down in the neighboring of intermediate receptacle 42.Under this state, the contact ring 55 of lower surface that is arranged on the cone shape wall 51 of cubitainer 41 is pressed on the side seal 44, and the contact ring 66 that is arranged on the peristome periphery of intermediate receptacle 42 is pressed into down on the side seal 45.And these seals 44,45 constitute by soft materials such as silicone and are the states of mutual crimping.Therefore, can stop the offset of filtrator 46 fully.In addition, last cubitainer 41 and intermediate receptacle 42 utilize the undercutting pawl chimeric and embedded hole 56 and stop pin 67 of projection 53,61 chimeric and realize practical closely chimeric respectively.
Then, auxiliary sealing member 47 suitably is installed on the zone that the maintenance wall portion 62 of extending towards the top by the intermediate receptacle 42 that is in inversion state limited.At this moment, auxiliary sealing member 47 utilizes the contact ring 70 of peristome 63 peripheries (being 4 layers in illustrated embodiment) that are arranged on intermediate receptacle 42 to remain on the desirable position.Lower reservoir 43 is installed at last.With respect under inversion state, keeping wall portion 62 intermediate receptacle 42 up, lower reservoir 43 is similarly carried with the inversion state of upset.At this moment, assemble with the mode that the inside surface of maintenance wall portion 62 on being arranged on intermediate receptacle 42 closely contacts to be arranged at first of lower reservoir 43 outside surface of portion 82 that hangs down, thereby finish assembling operation.At last, the microplate 40 of finishing the band filtrator of assembling operation is turned back to use location shown in Figure 8.
At this moment, as shown in Figure 9, be formed on funnelform guiding wall 64 loosening being configured in the portion that retains 80 of lower reservoir 43 on the intermediate receptacle 42 chimericly.In the moment of having finished assembling, can stackedly in order take care of microplate 40, in addition, at this moment, under stacked situation, be arranged on flange 54 on the last cubitainer 41 of below microplate the 3rd the hanging down on the inboard stacked flank 85 of portion 84 of nearest microplate above being arranged on, thereby can keep microplate effectively.Therefore, can be in order with stable posture with stacked each microplate of multilayered state.Microplate for can in a large number production the present application can apply telltale mark on each part, so that assembly mechanical can be with reference to the position of each part and the reference after carrying out the correct location of each part.Thus, can realize the robotization of assembling operation, can produce in a large number.Especially, in the application's microplate, because flimsy filtrator 46 is important factors in assembling operation with respect to the positioning operation of last cubitainer 41, so recess 74 that applies position adjustment usefulness at the upper surface and/or the lower surface of last side seal 44, so that can suitably locate the last side seal 44 with stage portion 72 that the filtrator of accepting this filtrator 46 accepts usefulness, this is very important.
Next, the using method to the microplate 40 of the band filtrator of the embodiment 2 of the present application describes.As shown in Figure 8, the microplate 40 with a band filtrator is configured on both allocations of level.Then, utilize suitable utensils such as suction pipe will be examined the peristome 50 that material supplies to cubitainer 41.In the microplate 40 herein, can be that 96 corpse or other object for laboratory examination and chemical testing are gathered as the inspection sample simultaneously with the number of peristome 50.Fig. 9 below with reference to the section that amplifies expression peristome 50 describes, supply in the peristome 50 that the cone shape wall 51 by last cubitainer 41 limits be examined that material drips to that stage portion 72 by last side seal 44 is kept and the thin filtering surface by the central authorities of the filtrator 46 that descends side seal 45 clampings on.At this, can only make inspection sample by this filtrator 46 with set characteristic.Garbled like this inspection sample is guided by the funnelform guiding wall 64 of intermediate receptacle 42 and accommodates in the portion that retains 80 of lower reservoir 43.Should be noted in the discussion above that the amount of accommodating the inspection sample in the portion of retaining 80, is the amount that is housed in the space that the usefulness size L7 between the lower opening portion 65 of bottom to the lower end of guiding wall 64 of the portion of retaining 80 represents.Concrete sample size maximum is about about 30 cubic millimeters.
Accommodated a certain amount of inspection sample in the portion of retaining 80 after, only the lower reservoir 43 with microplate 40 separates from middle container 42.This detached job can easily carry out to being pulled away from towards upper and lower by catching the hang down wall 60 of erecting of portion 83 and intermediate receptacle 42 of second of lower reservoir 43.Noting not making the portion that the retains 80 interior inspection samples of the lower reservoir that is housed in such separation to overflow on one side, should check that sample be transported to set inspecting stand on one side, in the detailed inspection of this place's beginning sample.
Because the relation of the mesh size of the filtrator 46 that uses in the present application, can predict that sometimes checked property blames in by filtrator 46, be examined material owing to for example with contacting of air the danger that rerum natura changes takes place during this time.For this reason, in the microplate 40 of the present application, in order promptly to finish filtration operation enough as far as possible with respect to checked property mass-energy, be provided with and provide negative pressure to the portion that retains 80 of lower reservoir 43, make and be examined the mechanism that material forcibly moves in the portion of retaining 80 by filtrator, so that the checked property mass-energy that supplies to peristome 50 is enough promptly by filtrator 46.That is to say, reduce pressure by known mechanisms of decompressor such as pumps around the portion that retains 80 of the microplate 40 of the band filtrator of the present application.As a result, shown in the Reference numeral among Figure 30 93, thereby the air that retains portion 80 inside reduces the pressure that retains portion 80 by the outside that a pair of ventilating part 90 is discharged to the portion of retaining 80.Like this, become negative pressure owing to retain the inside of portion 80, so shown in the Reference numeral among Fig. 9 95, the air in the peristome 63 of the intermediate receptacle 42 that the downside of filtrator 46 is nearest attracted to outside the portion of retaining 80, thereby this peristome 63 becomes negative pressure.Like this, supply to cubitainer 41 peristome 50 be examined material promptly by filtrator 46 attracted to the below.As a result, be examined material by filtrator 46 being forced to property move in the portion of retaining 80.At this moment, should be noted in the discussion above that as mentioned above, make the liquid level of accommodating the material in the portion of retaining 80 not rise to more than the size L7.In other words, must between the lower opening portion 65 of the liquid level of sample and guiding wall 64, the space be set.Under the situation that does not have this space, this liquid directly is attracted in the reliever, thereby can't realize initial purpose.
