A wash system for use in an in vitro diagnostic immunoanalyzer utilizes a bridge having a linear track to move cuvettes from one incubation ring portion to another incubation ring portion. Washing stations along the linear track provide a magnetic field and fluid washing of cuvette contents independent of the size and motion of one or more incubation rings.

One actuator (a gripper mechanism and reagent bottle lid opening mechanism drive unit 120) drives a gripper mechanism 106 that holds a reagent bottle 10 and a reagent bottle lid opening mechanism 104 that incises a lid of the reagent bottle 10. The gripper mechanism 106 operates to ascend when the reagent bottle lid opening mechanism 104 operates to descend in order to incise the reagent bottle lid 112, and the reagent bottle lid opening mechanism 104 operates to ascend when the gripper mechanism 106 operates to descend in order to hold the reagent bottle 10. The reagent bottle lid opening mechanism 104 and the gripper mechanism 106 operate without interfering with each other's functions.

An apparatus for conveying a plurality of articles (10) includes a transport belt (6), a bumper stopper (14), and a rotator (12). A motor moves the transport belt which is adapted to rotate the rotator as the belt conveys the plurality of articles. The stopper can move between first and second positions relative to the transport belt wherein the bumper stopper guides one article toward the rotator when the bumper stopper is in the first position. The bumper stopper allows the article to be conveyed to another location when the bumper stopper is in the second position. The transport belt can continue to convey other articles while the one article is temporarily held in place by the bumper stopper. The rotator is configured to rotate the article conveyed by the transport belt. The article can remain in contact with the transport belt while the rotator is rotating the article.

An automated analyzer includes a container installation portion in which a container, such as a reagent container, has a protrusion and an openable and closable lid. A lid opening and closing mechanism opens and closes the lid and includes an arm portion having an arm and a horizontal driving portion which moves the arm in a first horizontal direction. The arm includes a protrusion contacting portion that includes a first surface having an angle greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees when the horizontal surface is set as 0 degrees. The lid opening and closing mechanism portion opens the lid by moving the arm in the first horizontal direction, contacting the lid protrusion on the first surface of the protrusion contacting portion, and then moving the lid protrusion along a shape of the first surface in a vertical direction, until the lid is opened.

The present invention discloses an instantaneous multi-wavelength fluorescence detection instrument and an instantaneous multi-wavelength fluorescence detection method, relating to the field of medical instruments. The instantaneous multi-wavelength fluorescence detection instrument includes a card holder having an accommodating groove, a driving mechanism configured to drive the card holder to move, and an optical module for fluorescence detection. An optical module generates irradiation light of different wavelength by a light source. The irradiation light irradiates the sample to be detected through the first dichroic mirror to generate fluorescence signals of different wavelengths. The fluorescence signals form multiple fluorescence transmission paths through second dichroic mirrors, some of the fluorescence transmission paths are at a reflection light path of the second dichroic mirrors and some of the fluorescence transmission paths are at a transmission light path of the second dichroic mirrors. The fluorescence of different wavelengths is received by a corresponding optical element.

A full-automatic sample pretreatment device includes a frame module, a cap removing module, a blood-collection tube grasping module, a pipette module, a platform module, a handling module, a film sealing module, a magnetic solid phase extraction module, an SPE positive pressure extraction module and a conveyor belt waste transfer module. A conveyor belt waste transfer module is arranged at a bottom of the frame module, the cap removing module, the platform module and the magnetic solid phase extraction module are sequentially arranged in the middle of the frame module from left to right, and the blood-collection tube grasping module, the pipette module, the handling module and the film sealing module are arranged at an upper portion of the frame module. The magnetic solid phase extraction module and the SPE positive pressure extraction module are detachable and interchangeable components.

The present disclosure provides a gate system for sample detection and a method of sample inspection, which relate to the field of detection and analysis technology. The gate system comprises: an accommodating apparatus configured to accommodate an inserted ticket to be detected; a wipe sampling apparatus including a wipe sampling belt which is configured to drive the ticket to be detected to move within the accommodating apparatus and to conduct a wipe sampling to the ticket; an inspiratory sampling apparatus configured to collect samples dropped from the wipe sampling apparatus; and a detection apparatus configured to detect the samples and output detection results. The gate system for sample detection and the method of sample inspection provided by the present disclosure have a wide range of applications and can perform rapid sampling and detection to those substances that are difficult to be volatilized.

A holder transport apparatus according to an embodiment includes, an elevator device comprising a conveyance member which includes an ascending path and a descending path arranged along an ascending and descending circulation path that circulates, and a plurality of support plates which are attached to the conveyance member and support a holder which holds a sample container in an erect state.

A pipette tip supply mechanism includes: a pipette tip storage unit for storing a plurality of tapered shaped pipette tips; a belt for transporting a pipette tip supplied from an opening of the pipette tip storage unit; and a belt drive unit that drives the belt in a transport direction. The belt is inclined upwards toward the transport direction so that the pipette tip is rotatable around a longitudinal axis of the pipette tip on a surface of the belt and the pipette tip is rolled to orient the longitudinal axis of the pipette tip along the transport direction in conjunction with the drive of the belt in the transport direction.
