Abstract:
A carrier puck (10) including a removable insert (60) that includes a cavity (74) for holding a container (200) and an upper rim (80); a base (20) that includes a cavity (73) for holding the insert (60); and a springloaded coupling (100) that exerts a compression force that draws the upper rim (80) of the removable insert (60) downward onto the base (20) of the puck (10).
Abstract:
A carrier puck (10) that includes a removable insert (60), a base (20) and a plurality of fasteners (100), 102), the removable insert having an upper rim (80) that extends outward from an insert sidewall (62) and engages with an upper end (40) of the base, and the fasteners individually including (a) a spring-loaded carriage (102a) and that engages with a corresponding carriage track (95) on the base and (b) a latching arm (102b) associated with the spring-loaded carriage, the latching arm including a first locking member (102c) that engages with a mating second locking member (85) of the upper rim of the insert.
Abstract:
Sample container carrier (10) for a laboratory sample distribution system, wherein the sample container carrier (10) comprises a magnetic element (20) that is arranged such that a magnetic move force applied to the sample container carrier depends from an angularity. A laboratory sample distribution system (100) comprising such a sample container carrier (10) and to a laboratory automation system (5) comprising such a sample distribution system.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a set of sample container carriers, a laboratory sample distribution system comprising such a set of sample container carriers, and to a laboratory automation system comprising such a laboratory sample distribution system. The set of sample container carriers comprises sample container carriers of a first type and a second type, wherein magnetic fields generated by respective magnetically active devices of the sample container carriers having the first type are oriented opposite to magnetic fields of respective magnetically active devices of the sample container carriers having the second type.
Abstract:
Arrangement for sequencing and guiding travel of test tube carriers (1) including at least one rotatable deviator (16, 17) positioned to intersect the at least one conveyor (4). The deviator (16, 17) includes a horizontal deviator plate including at least one grip for receiving a test tube carrier (1). One contact surface is positioned vertically at a distance from the deviator plate and aligned with the grip. The contact surface is formed to contact the test tube carrier (1) at a distance from the contact level of the grip and the carrier (1).
Abstract:
Vorgeschlagen wird ein Verfahren der Warenbevorratung und -kommissionierung unter Einsatz von Paletten (10), auf denen gleichartige Waren (5) in mehreren horizontalen Lagen geschichtet sind, wobei jede Lage eine Mehrzahl der Waren (5) enthält. Die Palette (10) wird geleert, und die so entnommenen Waren werden auf mit Handhabungsstrukturen (22A, 22B) für ein Regalbediengerät versehene Tablare (20) umgeladen, wobei jedes Tablar mit nur einer Warenschicht beladen wird. Die so beladenen Tablare werden zu einem Lagerplatz (31) innerhalb eines Lagerbereichs (30) unter Aufschichten eines Warenstapels aus den beladenen Tablaren (20) transportiert.
