    Abstract: Disclosed, is a dosing apparatus [1] which is configured to provide a predetermined amount of material from one vessel to another vessel. The dosing apparatus [1] may comprise a dosing head having a dosing tube [9] and a dosing rod [12] which is movable within said dosing tube [9]. The dosing rod [12] may comprise a dosing chamber [10] which may be filled with a predetermined amount of material. Also described, is a method of dosing which utilizes the dosing apparatus [1] disclosed. In some embodiments, the method may comprise providing a dosing apparatus [1], extending the dosing rod [12] with respect to the dosing tube [9], loading the dosing chamber [10] with a predetermined amount of material, and, retracting the dosing rod [12] with respect to the dosing tube [9] to close the dosing chamber [10]. One or more air and/or liquid cleaning steps may be employed, wherein a cleaning unit [17, 117] may be utilized to clean the dosing rod [12] and/or a funnel [4].

    Abstract: Disclosed, is a sample preparation apparatus which is configured to prepare a material sample suitable for X-ray diffraction. The apparatus comprises a dished sample holder bottom configured to fit within an annular sample holder. The dished sample holder bottom has a concave dished surface which is adapted to distribute sample material under pressing forces. A method of preparing a material sample suitable for X-ray diffraction is also disclosed. The method comprises dosing a dished sample holder bottom which is configured to fit within an annular sample holder with sample material, wherein the dished sample holder bottom preferably has a concave dished surface which is adapted to distribute sample material under pressing forces.

    Abstract: Disclosed, is a sample preparation apparatus (6B) which is configured to prepare a material sample (900′) suitable for X-ray diffraction. The apparatus (6B) comprises a dished sample holder bottom (500) configured to fit within an annular sample holder (400). The dished sample holder bottom (500) has a concave dished surface (501) which is adapted to distribute sample material (900) under pressing forces. A method of preparing a material sample (900′) suitable for X-ray diffraction is also disclosed. The method comprises dosing a dished sample holder bottom (500) which is configured to fit within an annular sample holder (400) with sample material (900), wherein the dished sample holder bottom (500) preferably has a concave dished surface (501) which is adapted to distribute sample material (900) under pressing forces. A new leveling device design tool (FIG. 12) is also disclosed. The leveling tool minimizes surface contact effects by penetrating the core of the sample and providing random sample grain orientation while evenly distributing material throughout the sample holder bottom. The sample material (900) is lightly pressed, and sample material (900) is distributed within the dished sample holder bottom (500) by virtue of the concave dished surface (501).

    Abstract translation: 公开了一种样品制备装置(6B),其被配置为制备适于X射线衍射的材料样品(900')。 设备(6B)包括配置成装配在环形样品保持器(400)内的碟形样品保持器底部(500)。 碟形样品保持器底部(500)具有适于在按压力下分布样品材料(900)的凹形凹面(501)。 还公开了一种制备适合于X射线衍射的材料样品(900')的方法。 该方法包括给盘状样品保持器底部(500)进行计量,该底部(500)被配置成装配在具有样品材料(900)的环形样品保持器(400)内,其中所述凹陷样品保持器底部(500)优选地具有凹形凹面(501) 其适于在按压力下分布样品材料(900)。 还公开了一种新的整平装置设计工具(图12)。 流平工具通过穿透样品的核心并提供随机样品晶粒取向,同时均匀分布材料遍及样品保持器底部,最大限度地减少表面接触效应。 样品材料(900)被轻压,样品材料(900)借助于凹面(501)分布在碟形样品保持器底部(500)内。
