Definitions

  • the subject of the innovation is a sample collector consisting of a cassette, which is provided with cylindrical recesses arranged in a row, and sample vessels with a standing ring, which are lined up in strips.
  • sample containers lined up in strips which must be removed from the sample collector's cassette for the treatment or examination of the samples, are in each case necessarily put back into the cassettes in the same order in order to avoid interchanging the samples.
  • the sample collector is characterized in that in each row one of the recesses has a different shape from the others and is arranged asymmetrically in the row, and the strips each have a sample vessel which is arranged asymmetrically in the same way and the bottom of which is geometrically the shape of the asymmetrically arranged and different from the rest of the recess.
  • five recesses are arranged in each row of the cassette, of which one recess differs geometrically from the others, and the strips are formed from five sample vessels, one of which has a bottom. is provided, which corresponds geometrically to the different recess.
  • the geometric shape of the asymmetrically arranged recesses can be hemispherical, pyramidal, cubic, etc.
  • the bottom of the sample vessel arranged asymmetrically in the strip must be designed accordingly.
  • FIG. 1 shows sample vessels lined up in a strip, each of which is connected to a web, partly in a side view.
  • Figure 2 shows the section II-II of Figure 1.
  • Figure 3 shows the top view of a strip of sample vessels.
  • Figure 4 shows the cassette cut for receiving the sample vessels.
  • FIGS. 1 a to 3 a show a variant of the strips of sample vessels according to FIGS. 1 to 3.
  • the sample collector consists of the cassette 1 and the sample vessels 2.
  • the sample vessels 2 are lined up in strips 3; each strip 3 can contain any number greater than two of sample vessels 2, preferably five.
  • the cassette 1 has cylindrical recesses 4, which are each arranged in rows 5. In each row 5 there is a recess 6 in an asymmetrical arrangement which, with its geometric shape, deviates from the shape of the other recesses in the row.
  • the sample vessels 2 are each provided with a base ring 7. Only one sample container 2 of the strip 3 lacks the base ring 7, as a result of which the shape of its base part 8 differs from the base shape of the other sample containers 2.
  • the individual sample vessels are connected to one another by simple webs 9 or by double webs 10 and thus each form a strip 3.

Abstract

Bei diesem Probensammler weist in jeder Reihe (5) der Kassette (1) eine der Ausnehmungen (4, 6) eine von den übrigen abweichende (geometrische) Form auf und ist asymmetrisch in der Reihe (5) angeordnet. Von den zu Streifen (3) aufgereihten Probengefässen (2) ist ein Probengefäss (2) in gleicher Weise asynimetrisch angeordnet und besitzt einen Boden (8) der geometrisch der Form der asymmetrisch angeordneten und von den übrigen abweichenden Ausnehmung (6) entspricht.

Description

  • Gegenstand der Neuerung ist ein Probensammler bestehend aus einer Kassette, die mit in Reihe angeordneten zylinderförmigen Ausnehmungen versehen ist, und zu Streifen aufgereihten Probegefäßen mit Standring.
  • Es soll sichergestellt werden, daß zu Streifen aufgereihte Probengefäße, die zur Behandlung oder Untersuchung der Proben der Kassette des Probensammlers entnommen werden müssen, jeweils zwangsläufig in gleicher Reihenfolge in die Kassetten zurückgesetzt werden, um Vertauschungen der Proben zu vermeiden.
  • Der Probensammler ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß in jeder Reihe eine der Ausnehmungen eine von den übrigen abweichende Form aufweist und asymmetrisch in der Reihe angeordnet ist, und die Streifen je ein Probengefäß besitzen, das in gleicher Weise asymmetrisch angeordnet ist und dessen Boden geometrisch der Form der asymmetrisch angeordneten und von den übrigen abweichende Ausnehmung entspricht.
  • In einer besonderen Ausführungsform sind in jeder Reihe der Kassette fünf Ausnehmungen angeordnet, von denen eine Ausnehmung sich geometrisch von den übrigen unterscheidet, und die Streifen aus fünf Probengefäßen gebildet werden, von denen eines mit einem Boden. versehen ist, der geometrisch der abweichenden Ausnehmung entspricht.
  • Die geometrische Form der asymmetrisch angeordneten Aus- nehmungen kann halbkugelförmig, pyramidenförmig, kubisch usw. sein. Entsprechend muß der Boden des im Streifen asymmetrish angeordneten Probengefäßes ausgebildet sein.
  • Die Neuerung wird im folgenden an Hand von lediglich einen Ausführungsweg darstellenden Zeichnungen näher erläutert. Figur 1 zeigt zu einem Streifen aufgereihte Probengefäße, die mit einem Steg jeweils verbunden sind, teilweise geschnitten in Seitenansicht. Figur 2 zeigt .den Schnitt II-II der Figur 1. Figur 3 zeigt die Draufsicht auf einen Streifen aus Probengefäßen. Figur 4 zeigt die Kassette zur Aufnahme der Probengefäße geschnitten. Figuren 1 a bis 3 a zeigen eine Variante der Streifen von Probengefäßen gemäß Figuren 1 bis 3.
  • Der Probensammler besteht aus der Kassette 1 und den Probengefäßen 2. Die Probengefäße 2 sind zu Streifen 3 aufgereiht; jeder Streifen 3 kann eine beliebige Anzahl größer zwei von Probengefäßen 2 enthalten, vorzugsweise fünf. Die Kassette 1 weist zylinderförmige Ausnehmungen 4 auf, die jeweils in Reihen 5 angeordnet sind. In jeder Reihe 5 befindet sich eine Ausnehmung 6 in asymmetrischer Anordnung, die mit ihrer.geometrischen Form von der Form der übrigen Ausnehmungen der Reihe abweicht. Die Probengefäße 2 sind jeweils mit einem Standring 7 versehen. Nur einem Probengeäß 2 des Streifens 3 fehlt der Standring 7, wodurch die Form seines Bodenteils 8 sich von der Bodenform der übrigen Probengefäße 2 unterscheidet. Die einzelnen Probengefäße sind durch einfache Stege 9 bzw. durch Doppelstege 10 miteinander verbunden und bilden so jeweils einen Streifen 3.
