Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for mixing of laboratory vessel contents with a receiving adapter with a holder for receiving laboratory vessels in removable blocks and a drive, by which the receiving adapter can be set in a mixing movement, which in a substantially horizontal, plane circular translational oscillating runs.
  • exchange blocks devices for receiving vessels that can also be used for temperature control
  • Such exchangeable blocks and also the reaction vessels can be standardized.
  • 0.2 ml, 0.5 ml, 1.5 ml and 2.0 mm reaction tubes - as well as suitable replacement blocks.
  • cryo vessels for falcon vessels (1.5 ml and 50 ml), for glass vessels and beakers, for microtiter plates (MTP), for deep well plates (DWP), for slides and for PCR Plates with 96 wells.
  • MTP microtiter plates
  • DWP deep well plates
  • PCR Plates for slides and for PCR Plates with 96 wells.
  • This list is not exhaustive, but it does indicate the wide variety of laboratory vessels for which the mixers should be suitable.
  • foot prints - namely the base structure of exchange blocks.
  • An example of this is the ANSI SBS-1, SBS-2, SBS-3 or SBS-4 (as of 2004).
  • a laboratory shaker with different adapters, for example for glass containers, test tubes or microtiter plates is from the EP 1393797 known.
  • Such mixers are driven at a rotational frequency of 200 rpm to 1,500 rpm.
  • the frequency is usually adjustable.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a mixer of the type described above, which has a wider range of applications.
  • a mixing device for laboratory vessel contents is provided with a receiving adapter and a drive.
  • the receiving adapter has a holder which is suitable for receiving vessels. This should preferably mean that the vessels can be introduced into the holder of the receiving adapter in such a way that they do not free themselves of themselves during undisturbed operation during the mixing movement into which the receiving adapter can be displaced by means of the drive.
  • the holder of the receiving adapter preferably satisfies certain standards.
  • the drive of the mixing device according to the invention is able to set the recording adapter in a mixing movement, which is substantially circularly translationally oscillating in a plane.
  • a mixing movement according to the invention can be described in that two (imaginary) points of the receiving adapter perform a circular motion with substantially the same angular position, the same angular velocity and the same radius.
  • the mixing movement is in a horizontal plane - so that a billet taken therein mixed with its vertical reaction vessels.
  • the mixing device is characterized in that the receiving adapter has an externally accessible vortex structure, a vortex adapter.
  • a vortex adapter This is suitable to take a container mounted from the outside held, in particular a test tube positively in the mixing movement.
  • the vortex adapter has a paragraph structure. This is on a (possibly even imaginary) circumference arranged with at least one paragraph, which points to the center of the circumference.
  • the vortex adapter may have a trough whose edge represents the "circumference” according to the invention with the "center” according to the invention in the center of the trough. The trough edge thus forms here so to speak a single circumferential shoulder on the circumference.
  • the vortex adapter may also have at least three radial flanks sloping towards the center, which are preferably arranged uniformly on the circumference. So then three such edges are preferably arranged at 120 ° to each other, four such flanks below 90 ° and so on.
  • the vortex adapter can also have an elastic surface which can be impressed into a depression by a vessel held thereon with a certain contact force.
  • the vortex adapter may also have a slightly elastic surface and / or a surface adhering to smooth surfaces.
  • a surface according to the invention preferably adheres to glass, because test tubes or mixing flasks are commonly made of this material - or of a similar plastic, for which the surface may preferably also be suitable.
  • this elastic surface of elastomer, rubber, rubber, neoprene or the like - also possibly each coated.
  • the device according to the invention can advantageously be used both as a mixer and as a vortexer without two devices having to be provided, and in particular even without having to exchange any adapter on the device.
  • the drive of the mixing device is preferably adjusted so that a frequency of the mixing movement also results in the range of more than 2,000 rpm or even more than 3,000 rpm.
  • the radius of the mixing device is preferably less than 3 cm or even less than 2 cm - to name, for example, suitable mixing motion parameters for vortexing.
  • mixing programs can also be run by a memory-programmed controller of the mixer according to the invention, which are particularly suitable in a first situation for mixing an inserted alternating block with reaction vessels - and immediately thereafter in a next situation for vortexing a test tube.
  • DNA chains can be brought into an undesirable state by excessive energy supply, which can adversely affect further processing.
  • Other possible applications of a controllable energy supply by an optimizable combination of speed and stroke result, for example, for adaptive comminution of substances by introduced media such as spherical particles, which ensure optimal power transmission, for example, on soft substances.
  • a generic device for mixing is characterized in that the holder has at least one Federeinposition that holds a recorded exchange block, frictional and frictional.
  • the holder is preferably not actually form-fitting and in particular has no additional catch and no additional latch as a mechanical form-fitting elements.
  • This is the holder of the invention particularly for machines - but not least for daily manual insertion, where despite sometimes occasionally decreasing concentration in positioning an exchange block with the vessel contents to be mixed ultimately must be safely and accurately positioned in the mixing device.
  • Laboratory machines are known to allow, for example, rapid and reproducible pipetting and dispensing operations. In this case, otherwise manually performed feed processes are performed, for example, by a motor-driven arm with appropriate dosing.
  • the arm can be movable in all three spatial axes. For a precise dosage, a particularly accurate positioning of the plates and vessels is very advantageous. This also applies to additional devices that are to be used together with such machines - that is, for example, for mixers of the type according to the invention - which can be equipped automatically by such a laboratory machine with vessels and exchange blocks.
  • the figure shows a three-dimensional view of a mixing device according to the invention.
  • a mixing device 2 can be seen with an upper-side, frame-shaped receiving adapter 4, which has a holder 6, 8 for receiving change blocks.
  • the receiving adapter 4 holds the support structures 6 and 8 in the shape of a frame around a substantially rectangular inner space 10 , which corresponds to the "foot print" of an exchange block (not shown).
  • This rectangular area 10 is covered by a rectangular mat 10 , which has in its center a trough 12 with a wall-like edge elevation.
  • the mat 10 is removable for cleaning and is injection molded from EPDM or silicone rubber.
  • the receiving adapter 4 is set together with the trough 12 in its in a horizontal plane circular translationally oscillating mixing movement - and so puts a liquid in the Test tube for mixing in a vortex.
  • the drive (not shown) of the mixing device 2 stops automatically.
  • This automatic starting and stopping of the vortexing which depends on the contact pressure, is possible according to the invention by means of a sensor which reacts to the contact pressure and turns on and off the drive of the mixer 2 .
  • This switching can also be controlled with a time delay in order, for example, not to take account of an accidental decrease in contact pressure-and also not to switch on the vortexer immediately, if it is touched accidentally, for example.
  • a support structures 6, 8 carries the frame-shaped receiving adapter 4 on the one hand three upside-down U-shaped spring clips 8, two of which are arranged on the receiving adapter frame 4 center- symmetrically along a longitudinal inner edge and one on a transverse inner edge in that from each of the spring clips 8 a resilient leg points into the interior of the frame 4 .
  • the receiving adapter 4 carries in each case opposite to its other two inner edges of three elastic abutment 6 each in the form of an elastomeric cylinder.
  • bracket 6 causes the Federeinposition 8 on a recorded change block (not shown) has a lateral holding force, which pushes it with its lower edge elastic in the elastic abutment 6 .
  • the Federeinpositionen 8 are not actually form-fitting, because they have, for example, no latching recess, in which, for example, a lower edge of a bill of exchange could engage positively. But by pushing in the lower edge of an inserted change block in the elastic abutment additionally creates a kind of positive connection.
