Definitions
- the present invention relates to a transport container used for transporting transportable objects that can be stacked vertically, and a transport method for individually taking out the transported objects that are stacked and contained in the transport container.
- Microplates are widely used when quantifying and identifying large numbers of specimens.
- the microplate is made of synthetic resin or the like, and has a structure in which a large number of wells are provided on a flat plate.
- microplates have a flat lower surface, and some have a lower surface formed as an embossed recess with respect to the upper surface having wells.
- a microplate having a lower surface formed as a recess can often be fitted on a sample stage such as an analyzer or another microplate of the same type. The microplate having such a shape can be fixed on the sample stage or the microplate without misalignment.
- a perforated plate-shaped cover that can be sealed for each well, a non-perforated plate-shaped cover, a film-shaped cover, etc. may be attached.
- the plate-shaped cover is often molded into a shape that allows another microplate to be fitted or a shape that does not interfere with the other microplate.
- microplates are generally provided as a structure that can be stacked vertically.
- a sample solution containing a sample is manually dispensed into a well of a microplate using a micropipette or the like. If the place where the sample liquid is prepared or dispensed is far from the analysis place, it is necessary to transport the microplate to which the sample liquid is dispensed to the analysis place.
- Microplates that can be stacked vertically can be transported in a stacked state when the number of microplates to be analyzed at one time is large.
- the stacked microplates have a limited number of parts that can be held.
- analytical light is projected onto the microplate, and the sample solution may contain harmful substances that should not be touched, or there may be concerns about manual contamination. Therefore, it is usually recommended that the microplate have a surface other than the top surface.
- Patent Document 1 describes a container used for transporting and storing a cryobox.
- the container described in Patent Document 1 is provided with a grip portion at the upper part of the rack, and is a hand-held container.
- the storage unit for storing the cryobox is provided with a shelf-like structure for individually storing the cryobox.
- a large number of microplates into which the sample solution has been dispensed may be subjected to analysis at one time, and depending on the properties of the sample, rapid transportation may be desired. Even when a perforated plate-shaped cover or the like is attached to the microplate, the sample liquids may mix with each other, so that the microplate is a transported object that should avoid tilting and tipping as much as possible. Under such circumstances, there is a demand for a transport container capable of transporting a large amount of transported materials having a high risk of manual transport at one time, such as a microplate into which a sample liquid is dispensed.
- a container structure that can accommodate the transported products in a stacked state is desired from the viewpoint of improving work throughput. Further, when transporting a microplate or the like into which the sample liquid has been dispensed, there is a risk that the sample liquids may mix with each other due to tilting or tipping over, so a container structure that keeps the laminated state stable is also desired.
