  • the invention relates to a pipette tip package consisting of a base box and from these stacked rows of holes for receiving pipette tips having pipette carriers, and top of a cover, wherein the pipette carriers are formed for releasable connection to the base box or the end cover and interposed in the stacking direction, By covering means with the pipette carrier connectable serving aprons are spaced from each other.
  • Pipette carriers are used to store and provide plastic pipette tips for use.
  • EP 2 839 880 A1 has disclosed a pipette tip carrier comprising a four-sided, cup-shaped plate with a plurality of holes for inserting pipette tips enclosing the base frame, the pipette carrier being stiff enough to withstand the clamping force of a pipette Resistant to its edges attacking gripping tool and is held securely by this.
  • the handling of the carrier for pipette tips to be improved by a machine.
  • the pipette carrier is lockable with a skirt-like spacer frame.
  • the pipette carrier is designed with a peripheral base projecting at the lower end of its walls and downwardly angled edge pedestal with inwardly angled, bevelled locking cams on the downwardly angled base walls.
  • the locking cams are on the Assigned complementary counter-locking means provided walls of the spacer frame, wherein the locking cams and the counter-locking means snap over each other.
  • the edge pedestal is lifted by bending with its locking cams of the counter-latching means of the spacer frame. The pipette carrier is thus exposed and can be removed from the spacer frame.
  • the invention has for its object to provide for a generic pipette tip packaging pipette, which allow in a simple and secure way on the one hand stacking and on the other hand successive destacking of the pipette carrier to store a pipette carrier in a system box for local removal of the pipette tips.
  • each wrapping apron is made of an elastic plastic material and on its head end facing the lower side of an upper pipette carrier via first latching means with the respective upper pipette carrier and at its foot end facing the upper side of a next pipette carrier via second latching means is connected to the next following pipette carrier, wherein the second locking means for removing the respective upper pipette carrier can be unlocked from the next following pipette carrier together with the envelope apron held tensile strength of the first locking means.
  • the thus interconnected via the first locking means unit of pipette carrier and wrapping apron can be locked via the second locking means with a subsequent unit consisting of pipette carrier and associated skirting apron, so that a secure and tensile in the vertical direction stack layer of several units of interconnected Pipet carriers and serving aprons is achieved.
  • the end cover is latched to the top unit pipette support to prevent contamination of the pipette tips.
  • the units of pipette carrier and wrapping apron are stacked starting from the base box on top of each other and form a so-called stack pack, from which the pipette tips can be processed directly after loosening the end cap.
  • the combination of upper and lower locking means stacked pipette carriers can be successively processed, the lower and second locking means can be unlocked without having to unlock the connection of the upper and first locking means to the pipette carrier. It can thus be achieved that the remaining stacking layer is always stably secured by two locking connections from unit to unit (pipette carrier, wrapping apron, pipette carrier).
  • a single pipette carrier together with the enclosed apron can optionally be removed as a refill pack from the stack pack then serving as a supply unit for processing the pipette tips and converted into a system box.
  • the execution of pipette tips from a refill pack is basically known from WO 00/51899 A1.
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the first locking means are designed as latching hooks spaced apart in the horizontal direction at two opposite pipette carrier sides below the outer Rows of holes adjacent edge portions of the pipette carrier are arranged projecting downwards, wherein the latching hooks are provided at their free, lower ends with the outer rows of the pipette carrier facing locking lugs, which engage in the transition region between a head-side edge region and the side walls of the shroud, provided complementary detent openings.
  • the locking lugs of each arranged front and rear on the two longitudinal sides of the pipette carrier preferably two spaced-apart latching hooks in the complementary recesses of the skirting apron and as a result, the locking lugs engage below the upper edge of the wrapping apron in this ,
  • a secure both in the horizontal and in the vertical direction locking the pipette carrier is achieved on the wrapping apron.
  • This first latching connection between the pipette carrier and the casing apron can be released by a pulling movement of the latching hooks away from the casing skirt, so that the pipette carrier can be lifted off the wrapping apron.
  • the releasable latching connection of pipette carrier and Envelope apron on the one hand allows easy replacement of the apron or the pipet carrier.
  • a defined distance between pipette carrier and wrapping apron is achieved by the elongated latching hooks.
  • the second latching means are formed as latching tabs, which are integrally formed on two opposite side walls of the wrapping apron on the bottom end down and provided at their free ends facing away from the side walls, outwardly directed locking projections are, which engage in two opposite pipette carrier sides in the adjacent to the outer rows of holes edge portions of the pipette carrier, stepped recesses, wherein the recesses have a the outside of the edge region facing the front, dovetailed tapered portion which faces the rows of holes rear rectangular cutout passes.
  • the two opposite latching tabs or partially the side walls of the wrapping apron are pressed inwards from the outside with the fingers of one hand, which is readily possible due to the dimensions of the boxes or units in question here, whereby the elastic latching tabs are moved within the dovetailed tapered sections in the rear rectangular cutout of the recesses, wherein the latching projections from the undergrei- freed catch connection.
  • the elastic locking tabs bulge or deform somewhat concave and take after immersion in the rectangular section again their original straight stretched position.
  • the sheathing hook connected to an upper pipette carrier via the latching hooks can simply be lifted off the following pipette carrier, because the latching tabs with the latching projections have sufficient free space in the rectangular cutouts.
  • the lifting without maintaining the pressure could also be ensured by the fact that the locking projection is less wide than the narrowest point at the end of the dovetailed portion of the recess.
