Embodiments described herein provide an automatic lid opener comprising a base section, a top section, a middle section, at least one motor and a control panel. The base section comprises a base cavity capable of receiving a base portion of a jar, an inflatable grip within the base cavity, and a pump configured to inflate the inflatable grip, the inflatable grip configured to extend in a radially inward direction of the base cavity upon inflation and engage the base portion of the jar to form a grip, when the jar is positioned in the base cavity. The top section comprises a lid gripping mechanism and a lid rotation mechanism. The at least one motor is configured to operate at least one of the pump, the lid gripping mechanism, the rotation mechanism, or the height adjustment mechanism, and the control panel is configured to power the at least one motor.

An online uncapping system includes a sample intake rail, a scanning blocking mechanism, a sample container information scanning apparatus, an uncapping blocking mechanism, a sample tube clamping mechanism, a sample tube uncapping device, and a cap receiving mechanism. The scanning blocking mechanism is arranged on one side of the sample intake rail; the sample container information scanning apparatus is configured to read information about the sample tube blocked by the scanning blocking mechanism; the uncapping blocking mechanism is arranged on one side of the sample inlet rail and configured to block and release the sample tube; the sample tube clamping mechanism is configured to clamp the sample tube blocked by the uncapping blocking mechanism; the sample tube uncapping device is configured to uncover the sample tube blocked by the uncapping blocking mechanism; and the cap receiving mechanism is configured to collect the tube cap.
