Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sample vessel or a reaction or laboratory vessel according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • sample or reaction vessels are generally arranged in multiple racks or holders in order to deposit, for example, pipetted samples or to store them for subsequent tests or analyzes.
  • the content of these vessels for example, in the order of about 10 to 100 ⁇ L (mü-liter).
  • These vessels are made of a suitable polymer material and usually have a lid integrally connected to the actual vessel, which is connected via a flexible connection with the vessel. By bending this connection, the lid can be placed on the vessel.
  • US 5'863'791 describes a cover of a tubular laboratory sample vessel by means of which the opening of the vessel can be sealed.
  • the lid is over a bendable connecting bar with the upper End of the sample vessel connected, wherein means are provided in this connecting web to fix the lid when closing the vessel in a central position can.
  • a test receptacle or a vessel body is again provided and a lid connected thereto in an integral manner which can be plugged by bending at least two flexible connecting webs with the receptacle on the opening of the vessel.
  • the cover surface is additionally formed laterally protruding tab-like from the lid.
  • this laterally projecting tab is projecting in the direction of the connecting web or webs.
  • connecting web or the connecting webs form a desired bending point to facilitate bending of the lid and the touchdown.
  • the tab is usually formed with open vessels lying in the plane of the top surface of the lid.
  • FIG. 1 shows in perspective a known from the prior art sample or reaction vessel 1 comprising a sample body 2 with the opening 3 through which pipetted samples can be entered into the vessel.
  • a cover 5 is further provided, which via a flexible connecting web. 7 connected to the vessel 2.
  • this has a handle 9.
  • this must be taken in one hand and with the other hand can be placed on the opening 3 by attacking the handle 9 of the lid 5.
  • FIG. 2 shows FIG. 2 an inventive sample or reaction vessel 11 in the open state.
  • the actual vessel 12 has an opening 13 and further provided is a lid 15, which is now connected via two connecting webs 17 with the vessel 12.
  • a lug 19 protruding in the direction of the vessel from the lid is provided, which is suitable for eliminating the disadvantages described above.
  • This tab 19 represents an enlargement of the top surface 23 of the lid 15, specifically in the sense of a tab projecting in the direction of the vessel 12 when the sample or reaction vessel is not closed.
  • pin-like guide elements 21 which should allow a centered placement of the lid 15 on the opening 13.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 is that in FIG. 2 shown inventive sample or reaction vessel 11 shown in the closed state.
  • FIG. 3 is clear recognizable that the top surface 23 of the lid 15 is greatly increased by the laterally projecting tab 19 so that after labeling this top surface, formed from the two sections 19 and 23, is clearly visible, which is the sample in the content of the reaction vessel 12.
  • the opening of the vessel 12 and the lifting of the lid 15 with a finger only to press the tab 19, whereby the lid 15 pops up automatically. In other words, this process can be triggered without the vessel 12 having to be removed from a holder or a multiple rack.
  • FIG. 4 is further clearly seen how centered by means of the guide pins 21 of the lid can be placed on the opening 13 of the vessel 12.
  • the tab 19 extending connecting webs 17 form a predetermined bending point 25, so that when bending these connecting webs are always bent at the same point.
  • the desired bending point 25 in the connecting web 17 is clearly visible.
  • sample or reaction vessels shown are only examples of the better understanding of the present invention.
  • connecting webs, protruding tabs, reaction vessel body, lid, etc. may be designed differently, depending on the requirements and needs, which are based on the sample or the reaction vessels.
  • These may also be small sample vessels or larger vessels in which larger quantities of a sample, such as a blood sample, are deposited.
  • polymeric materials can be used for the preparation of the sample or reaction vessels described according to the invention - the type of material depends on the requirements or the chemical resistance, which arise due to the use.
  • the sample or reaction vessels defined according to the invention can be used for a wide variety of purposes, be it in medicine, chemistry, biology, etc., etc.
