Claims (9)

What is claimed is:
1. A compact fast analyzer of the rotary cuvette type comprising: (a) a power-driven cuvette rotor holder comprising a flat circular base, an annular, upstanding retaining rim integrally fixed to said base, and an axially extending up-standing pin fixed to said base within the radial confine of said rim; said base defining: i. a first series of axially extending apertures dis-posed in a circular array through said base within the radial confine of said rim. ii. a second series of axially extending apertures dis-posed in a circular array through said base without the radial confine of said rim, said apertures in said second series of apertures being equal in number to said apertures in said first series of apertures; (b) a removable cuvette rotor having a circular plate-like configuration disposed on said base within the confine of said rim, said rotor defining a circular array of sample analysis cuvettes in axial register with respective apertures in said first series of apertures; (c) a movable light source disposed above said cuvette rotor for providing a beam of light incident on said rotor assembly at a point corresponding to the radial position of said sample analysis cuvettes; (d) means for detecting light from said light source after it has passed through said sample analysis cuvettes, said means for detecting light generating an output signal proportional to the intensity of light detected; and (e) signal generating means disposed adjacent said -rotor holder for detecting the passage of apertures in said second series of apertures.
2. The fast analyzer of claim 1 wherein an adjustable filter holder containing a plurality of absorbance filters extends between said base and said means for detecting light from said light source after it has passed through said sample analysis cuvettes.
3. The fast analyzer of claim 1 further including means for rapidly braking rotation of said rotor holder and rotor.
4. The fast analyzer of claim 1 further including a thermistor mounted within said upstanding pin for measuring the temperature of said cuvette rotor and electrical slip rings in electrical communication with said thermistor af- fixed to said rotor holder.
5. The fast analyzer of claim 4 wherein said upstanding pin is located at a radial position corresponding to the radius of said first series of axially extending apertures and said sample analysis cuvettes, and wherein said thermistor is within said pin so as to be axially centered within said removable cuvette rotor when said rotor is disposed on said base within the confine of said rim.
6. The fast analyzer of claim 1 wherein said removable cuvette rotor defines: (a) first and second sets of radially oriented loading cavities disposed in concentric annular arrays; and (b) means for effecting centrifugal passage of fluid from said first and second sets of loading cavities to respective cuvettes in said circular array of sample analysis cuvettes.
7. The fast analyzer of claim 6 wherein said cuvette rotor is of laminated construction with a central opaque disk sandwiched between first and second transparent disks, said sets of first and second cavities comprising depressions in said opaque disk, and loading apertures being provided through said first transparent disk in axial register with respective cavities in said first and second sets of loading cavities.
8. The fast analyzer of claim 6 wherein said cuvette rotor further defines a central distribution chamber and a plurality of distribution passageways communicating between said distribution chamber and respective cuvettes in said circular array of sample analysis cuvettes.
9. The fast analyzer of claim 8 wherein each of said distribution passageways intersects with adjacent distribution passageways at an acute angle so as to form a serrated periphery about said distribution chamber.
