Automatic apparatus for the determination of fluids and in particular biological fluids
Abstract
Abstract MEANS PROGRAMMING AUTOMATICALLY A PLURALITY OF SPECIMENS. AN AUTOMATIC APPARATUS FOR THE QUANTITATIVE DETERMINATION OF FLUIDS HAVING A SINGLE MOTOR. ELECTROMAGNETIC VALVES CONTROL THE QUANTITATIVE ADDITION OF REAGENTS. MEANS ARE PROVIDED FOR COMPENSATION AND FINE SENSITIVITY CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS. AN ASPIRATION PUMP SUPPLIES THE INTERMEDIATE ASPIRATION OF VARIABLE AMOUNTS OF SAMPLE AND AIR BY MEANS OF INTERCHANGEABLE CAMS. A SINGLE ANALYTICAL PLATE IS PROVIDED FOR CONTAINING THE SAMPLE CUPS AND THE PRECALIBRATED REACTION-MEASURING TEST TUBES WHEREIN THE COMPLETE REACTION AND THE COLORIMETRIC MEASUREMENT IS ACCOMPLISHED. THE REGENT ADDITIONS IS ACCOMPLISHED BY GRAVITY CONTROLLED BY THE ELECTROMAGNETIC VALVES. A TRANSISTORIZED POWER SUPPLY IS PROVIDED FOR THE COLORIMETRIC SYSTEM WHICH IS STABILIZED FOR CURRENT VARIZATIONS. A POWER SUPPLY IS PROVIDED FOR AUXILIARY CIRCUITS INDEPENDENT FROM THE POWER SUPPLY OF THE COLORIMETRIC SYSTEM AND ELECTRONIC
