Definitions
- the invention relates to a shaker for sample vessels see preamble of claim 1 and a method for shaking sample vessels see preamble of claim 18.
- Such shakers are used, among other things, for mixing chemical, biological or pharmaceutical samples in laboratories.
- the mixture components are placed in sample vessels e.g. Microtiter plates filled and arranged on a vibrating plate of the shaker, also referred to as a sample vessel support table. This is then vibrated to mix the mixture components so that the mixture components of the samples can mix in the desired manner.
- microtiter plates In modern laboratories it is common today to use standardized microtiter plates as sample vessels, which have a large number of sample vessels in a single plate. By using these microtiter plates, a whole series of different samples or so-called libraries can be shaken simultaneously in one shaking process. On the one hand, this improves the work efficiency of the laboratories and, on the other hand, it desirably increases the number of samples that can be examined in parallel or simultaneously. Therefore, shakers for microtiter plates are required in modern laboratories, especially for so-called high-throughput screening (HTS) processes, in which the samples are automated e.g. can be processed by robots.
- HTS high-throughput screening
- the invention is therefore based on the object to provide a shaker for sample vessels and a method for shaking sample vessels of the type mentioned, in which the smallest possible sample vessels or microtiter plates with a large number of the smallest possible sample vessels can be used.
- the invention thus relates to a basically known shaker for sample vessels, in particular microtiter plates, with a vibrating plate holding the sample vessels and an exciter drive for generating the oscillating movements of the vibrating plate.
- electric drives are usually used to set the vibrating plate in vibration, although other forms of drive can in principle also be used.
- the known drives include unbalance exciters, piezo-electric vibration exciters, hydraulic drives or magnetic drives, wherein one or more drives are arranged on the device base and are usually connected to the vibration plate by means of a suitable coupling means in such a way that they can vibrate them.
- holding devices such as e.g. Movable positioning pieces or recesses or recesses are provided on the vibrating plates, which hold the microtiter plates in position on the vibrating plate during the shaking process.
- the invention has the advantage that very large acceleration forces reaching up to 40 times the gravitational acceleration can be achieved by the resonance vibrations of the vibrating plate, which act on the sample material located in the sample vessels. These high acceleration forces generate high rotational speeds in the pro- material, so that vortices form very quickly, which produce an excellent mixing of the sample material. This good mixing efficiency makes it possible to use very small sample vessels. Since the formation of vortices within the sample vessels depends on the speed of rotation and the size of the sample vessels, small vessel sizes or small diameters require greater rotational speeds than large sample vessels.
- sample vessels with a square base are generally more advantageous than round sample vessels, since the sample liquid becomes more entangled in the corner areas and is therefore more easily rotated and swirls can form more quickly.
- the vibrating plate and at least one spring element connected to it form a resonance vibration system.
- the spring stiffness of the spring element essentially influences the system spring stiffness and thus specifies a range for the natural frequency of the system.
- the system natural frequency that then actually arises then depends on the usual oscillation parameters of oscillation systems, such as the moving mass, the frequency, the amplitude and other parameters influencing the resonance oscillation.
- the vibrating plate is carried and supported exclusively by the spring element. The deflection of the spring element at its free end also determines the stroke of the vibrating plate in all directions.
- the invention thus has the advantage that only a few components are required.
- the spring element therefore assumes a defined position for setting a basic position of the oscillating plate in the idle state.
- the spring element arranged to create the resonance vibration system can also be used to adjust the vibration plate in the idle state.
- additional components that are fundamentally destructible by vibrations such as, for example, reset pins, which would otherwise have been required for aligning the oscillating plate in a predetermined basic position, are therefore eliminated.
- a self-resetting spring element one in the prior art The usual complex control mechanism on the drive is omitted, since the oscillating plate is adjusted by the spring element that automatically swings back into its starting position.
- the support of the shaking plate which is also referred to as the sample vessel support table, is of great importance compared to the device base. This must ensure that the shaking plate only performs translatory movements.
- the vibrating plate is preferably connected by at least four elements to a device base and held in a vibration level.
- the four spring elements which are preferably arranged in the four outermost corners of a rectangular oscillating plate, take over the coupling of the oscillating plate to a device base which is usually as heavy as possible.
- the forces generated during the vibration of the oscillating plate are introduced into the device base via the spring elements and absorbed by the latter.
- the four spring elements are used to mount the oscillating plate in such a way that it can only move in an oscillation plane defined thereby, that is to say in two predetermined dimensions. With a usually horizontal arrangement of the oscillating plate, therefore, only movements that are in the horizontal are made possible.
- each spring element has at least one individual spring.
- springs can be all common forms of springs, and torque springs can also be used.
- all commercially available types of springs such as bar springs or spiral springs, made of all suitable materials, such as spring steel or permanently elastic plastic, are suitable.
- each spring element has at least one spring assembly consisting of a plurality of individual springs, the individual springs preferably being rod springs.
- Individual rod springs would have to be relatively massive due to the high stress caused by the resonance vibrations. For vibration-related reasons, however, this in turn requires a greater length of the individual spring or bar spring, which undesirably increases the overall height of the shaker.
- By bundling several relatively thin individual springs or rod springs shorter springs can be used overall, thereby reducing the height of the device and at the same time achieving good fatigue strength of the spring elements.
- the parallel arrangement of the bar springs within the spring assembly without additional aids ensures that the oscillating plate only moves in the oscillating plane.
- each spring element on its side facing the oscillating plate has a plate-side base and on its side facing the device base has a base-side base, between which the at least one individual spring is held.
- These bases perform two functions. On the one hand, they serve to effectively transfer force from the base or the oscillating plate into the spring, on the other hand, they take on a bundling function when several individual springs are arranged, i.e. the formation of spring assemblies.
- the individual individual springs held at their ends in the bases cannot shift relative to the other spring ends, and there are uniform or homogeneous vibration properties of the spring assemblies. In other words, a uniform deformation of the entire package is made possible in accordance with a single spring.
- the handling of the spring elements is improved overall, which has great advantages in the manufacture and maintenance of the shaker.
- both the plate-side base with the oscillating plate and the base-side base with the device base are each rigidly connected. In combination with the self-rigid bases, this results in a particularly stable vibration behavior of the vibration plate compared to the device base.
- the plate-side base of the spring elements are integrally connected to the vibrating plate.
- One piece designates a one-piece construction of the plate-side base and oscillating plate, which e.g. is produced in a single manufacturing step such as a casting process. This results in a particularly rigid connection between the two parts, which can be produced quickly and easily.
- both the plate-side base and the base-side base each have at least one recess with a widened edge for rigid mounting of at least one single spring.
- the recess serves to clamp the individual spring into the base, it being possible for the individual springs to be additionally pressed, glued or welded into the recesses.
- the widened edge of the recess ensures good deformability of the spring bars in the area of the clamping. This does not change the effective spring lengths and therefore the spring properties of the individual springs.
- at least one stop is arranged at a defined distance from a plate-side base of at least one spring element to limit the stroke. The maximum lateral deflection, i.e.
- the stop is a recess in the base of the device surrounding the plate-side base.
- This recess in the base of the device is expediently designed to be circular in order to create a stroke limitation which is the same in each direction, the base on the plate side likewise having a circular cylindrical outer shape, at least in the region of the recess. Then, with a centered arrangement of the spring element base in the recess, the difference in the two diameters results in the same maximum stroke in each direction of vibration.
- a damping element is arranged between the stop and the plate-side base serving to limit the stroke to reduce noise. This reduces the impact noises caused by hitting the base against the stop and also reduces the mechanical effects on the base from the impacts. Thus, both the working noise is reduced and the durability and strength of the base are improved.
- An embodiment of the shaker is particularly preferred which has a control device connected to the exciter drive for controlling the vibration behavior of the vibrating plate.
- This control device monitors the vibration behavior of the device and automatically controls the drive in such a way that the resonance vibrations are first generated and then are maintained uniformly for a predetermined time.
- the control device determines the vibration behavior of the vibration plate by means of suitable measurements, for example the deflection, and controls the drive in such a way that the desired vibrations occur.
- suitable measurements for example the deflection
- the excitation drive is a magnetic drive and a current measurement is carried out to regulate the vibration behavior.
- a particularly well and finely adjustable drive form e.g. Four electromagnets are arranged in a cross shape and drive an armature that is movably mounted in the center of the cross.
- By adjusting the magnetic strength both the amplitude and the frequency can then be changed in a simple manner during operation.
- the actual vibration behavior of the vibrating plate is determined e.g. by measuring the drive current.
- a complex arrangement of additional, often vibration-sensitive measuring means on the shaker can be dispensed with.
- a damping device is arranged on the device base, which e.g. serves to reduce noise.
- This damping device can be a foam mat or the like.
- the object is achieved in that, for shaking sample vessels arranged on a vibrating plate, in particular microtiter plates, the vibrating plate is set in resonant vibrations and is kept in resonant vibrations for a predetermined time.
- the sample vessels are accelerated very strongly by generating resonance vibrations. This leads to particularly strong turbulence in the samples, this effect being used here to make the sample vessels smaller with the same mixing quality and mixing time.
- the oscillating plate is preferably held in a horizontal oscillating plane. This is particularly useful in the case of non-sealed sample containers, but can also prove to be advantageous when mixing certain sample materials and also results in a more easily controllable resonance oscillation of the oscillating plate, which occurs only in one plane.
- the resonance oscillation of the oscillating plate is adjusted by first varying the oscillation frequency of the oscillating plate at constant amplitude until the resonance frequency is reached and then adjusting the amplitude as a function of the filling of the sample vessels to be mixed to a predetermined amplitude value.
- the sample mass can be measured, for example, by means of a weight measurement, before mixing begins are determined and, depending on this, predefined vibration parameters are set on the exciter drive.
- the resonance oscillation is preferably determined with a current measurement on the excitation drive.
- the resonance vibration can then be electronically very quickly and precisely e.g. by measuring a current minimum when it is reached.
- the vibration behavior of the vibrating plate is also advantageously controlled by a control device which automatically adjusts the resonance frequency and the vibration amplitude to the loading of the vibrating plate. This reduces the effort of manual adjustments and leads to a much faster and more uniform vibration generation.
- At least one spring element connected to the oscillating plate forms a resonance oscillation system, the spring element always taking a defined position for setting a basic position of the oscillating plate in the idle state.
- a basic vibration behavior of the vibration system can already be predetermined via the spring stiffness of the spring element and, if necessary, can be changed quickly and easily by exchanging it for a spring element with a different stiffness. This can e.g. be useful when shaking with a wide range of sample quantities to be shaken.
- the spring element also results in an automatic return of the oscillating plate to a basic position necessary for the automated loading of the sample vessels.
- the spring element actually used to achieve certain vibration properties means that additional components for setting the basic position can be dispensed with.
- Figure 1 is a spatial view of a shaker for sample vessels.
- Figure 2 shows a cross section through the shaker along a section line ⁇ - II.
- FIG. 3 shows a three-dimensional view under an oscillating plate equipped with four spring elements
- Fig. 4 shows a section through a spring element.
- 1 shows a three-dimensional view of a first exemplary embodiment of a shaker 1 for sample vessels in the form of a microtiter plate.
- the device 1 has an oscillating plate 3 arranged above a device base 9. Eight positioning pieces 27 are provided on the oscillating plate 3 for holding a rectangular microtiter plate, not shown here, two of which are each arranged at right angles to one another in order to hold the microtiter plate at its four corners.
- the four spring elements hold the oscillating plate 3 in a horizontal oscillating plane, so that the oscillating plate 3 can only move within the plane.
- This effect results from the fact that the spring elements 5, 6, 7 and 8 each have a spring assembly consisting of five parallel rod springs 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14, which are made of spring steel and do not deform appreciably in their longitudinal direction.
- the cylindrical, round bar springs have the same spring constants, spring stiffness and overall low damping properties in their oscillation directions.
- the four spring elements 5, 6, 7, 8 are each connected to the oscillating plate 3 via a base 15 on the plate side.
- the four spring elements 5, 6, 7, 8 each have base-side bases 16 with which the spring elements 5, 6, 7, 8 are fastened to the device base 9.
- the bases 15 and 16 shown here are rigid metal bodies in which the individual rod springs 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 are held rigid.
- Both the plate-side base 15 and the base-side base 16 are each circular cylindrical, the plate-side base 15 having a smaller outer diameter than the base-side base 14.
- the spring elements 5, 6, 7, 8 are also inserted into circular cylindrical recesses 20, which are formed in the housing wall 31 of the device base 9.
- the recesses 20 have exactly the width of the base-side base 16, so that it cannot rotate relative to the device base 9.
- the base-side bases 16 each have four screw holes 33 on their undersides.
- the base-side base 16 is screwed to the device base 9 by means of four screws, each of which is not shown in detail.
- the narrower design and integrally connected to the oscillating plate 3 because cast-on, plate-side base 15 enable the oscillating plate 3 to be moved back and forth in the horizontal direction by an exciter drive 4 via a coupling rod 34.
- the maximum stroke of the oscillating plate 3 results from the distance between the diameter through that of the recesses 20 and the plate-side bases 15.
- the spring elements 5, 6, 7, 8 serve to limit the stroke of the oscillating plate 3.
- the bases 15 and 16 of the spring elements 5, 6, 7, 8 connect on the one hand the individual spring bars 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 so that they deform together like a single spring.
- the bases 15, 16 serve for the effective transmission of the oscillation forces, such as the centrifugal forces, from the oscillation plate 3 into the spring elements 5, 6, 7, 8 and from the spring elements 5, 6, 7, 8 into the device base 9 3, the spring bars 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 over the entire height of at least the base-side base 16 in recesses 18 each through the base 15 and 16 and in recesses 17, 18 with the base 15, 16 firmly pressed.
- the recesses 17, 18 do not completely penetrate the bases 15, 16 but are shaped like bushes.
- the outer edges of the recesses 17 and 18 each have conically widened edges 32, which serve to allow a defined deflection in resonance mode in the transition region between the spring bar and the respective base 16.
- the plate-side base 13 is integrally connected to the vibrating plate 3. 1 and 3 of the oscillating plate 3 is a die-cast part, so that the plate-side base 15 together with reinforcing elements 35 and a coupling receptacle 36 for a coupling part 34 have been produced in one piece. Due to the flexurally stable design and attachment of the base 1 5, 1 6, there is a particularly good power transmission between the spring bars 10, 11, 12, 1 3, 14 and the bases 1 5, 16, so that an S when swinging -shaped deformation figure in the individual spring forms, the end pieces of the spring bars 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 open orthogonally to the vibration plane in the bases. In other words, torques can be transmitted from the spring into the respective adjacent component via the bases 13, 14 of the spring elements 5, 6, 7, 8. This leads to a particularly stable vibration behavior of the vibration plate 3 in the vibration plane.
- control device 24 on the excitation drive 4 which controls the excitation drive 4 in such a way that the oscillating plate 3 is just set in resonance vibrations and held.
- the control device 24 measures the current of the drive 4, which has a characteristic size at resonance, and uses this to determine the vibration behavior of the vibration plate 3.
- a damping device 22 is arranged in the form of an insulating mat made of foam, which is used for sound reduction.
- the damping device 22 can also serve as a vibration-damping, non-slip base for the shaker 1.
- the actual shaking of the microtiter plates 2 arranged on the vibrating plate 3 takes place in such a way that the vibrating plate is driven by the exciter drive 4 via the coupling part 34 which engages with the vibrating plate 3 by superimposing sinusoidal and cosine-shaped vibrations into a circular or elliptical movement.
- the spring elements 5, 6, 7, 8 bind the oscillating plate 3 to the horizontal oscillation plane and give way in the direction of the plane.
- the approximately 60 g heavy vibrating plate 3 generates load values of 1 kg per spring assembly 5, 6, 7, 8.
- the drive 4 is first controlled by a control device 24 so that with an initially low amplitude, which can also be referred to as a stroke, or deflection of the oscillating plate 3, the frequency, that is, the number of hin - and movements per unit of time, the vibrating plate 3 is slowly increased until the control device 24 determines by current measurement on the drive 4 that the vibrating plate 3 vibrates in resonance.
- the frequency is determined by Wobbein.
- the determination of the resonance vibration is again carried out by using the Ef- effect that the impedance of the excitation drive changes, the current falling when the resonance oscillation in the excitation drive 4 is reached, when the oscillating plate 3 oscillates in resonance.
- This change in current is determined by the control device 24 using suitable measuring means and processed in such a way that it regulates the drive power of the excitation drive 4 in such a way that the oscillating plate 3 is just kept in resonance vibrations for the specified duration of, for example, a few seconds. In the following, the amplitude of the vibration is then increased to a predetermined value.
- This amplitude value is selected taking into account the filling of the microtiter plate 2.
- a lower amplitude can be selected for a larger load and a higher amplitude for a smaller load.
- the sample material should not spill out of the sample compartments, so that this represents the uppermost limit of the amplitude.
- an effective mixing of the sample materials in the sample vessels 2 should be achieved in the shortest possible mixing time, so that this results in the lower limit of the amplitude.
