摘要: A sample-handling-module (10) and an apparatus (1) for calibrating a multi-channel liquid handling device are disclosed. The sample-handling-module cooperates with a weighing balance (11) with a load receiver (16). The sample-handling module has a holding device (20) with holders (22), arranged sequentially and equally spaced apart, configured to receive receptacles (26). A supporting device (30) has an array of tines (32) to laterally support the holders when the holders dismount from the load receiver. An actuating device (44) is operatively connected to the holders through the array of tines. The actuating device mounts the holders onto the load receiver, one at a time, by disengaging the corresponding tines. A system and a method of operating the actuating device are also disclosed. The sample-handling-module of the present invention is modular and compact thus making it easier to manufacture, operate, repair, and service.

摘要: A balance (10) has a mounting unit (30) movably connected to a first side (35) of a rear wall (25) of a weighing chamber. The mounting unit is above a top wall (23) of the weighing chamber. An elongate slot (40) extends from the first side through a second side (36) and receives the mounting unit and the top wall. The elongate slot guides the mounting unit and the top wall in a direction normal to a base body (11) of the balance. A position control unit (50), on the second side, has lower and upper carriages (52, 54). The upper carriage is connected to the mounting unit and the lower carriage is connected to the top wall. A stopper (64) limits the lower carriage at a predetermined position away from the base body, while allowing the upper carriage to advance therebeyond, separating the mounting unit from the top wall.

摘要: A draft shield for a balance is disclosed. The draft shield includes a first wall, a second wall, and at least a first door. The first wall and the second wall adjoin each other perpendicularly and the first door is provided perpendicular to each of the first wall and the second wall. The first door is arranged and configured to swivel between a closed position and an open position. When in the closed position, the first door adjoins a first edge of the first wall and a first edge of the second wall. A swivel axis of the first door extends perpendicular to a face of the first door such that the first door is configured to swivel in the plane of the first door.

摘要: A weighing device (10) has a base body (11), a weighing chamber floor (15), a weighing chamber rear wall (25), and a draft shield (20). The draft shield has a top wall (23), a first side wall (22L), a second side wall (22R), and a front wall (24). The weighing chamber floor, the weighing chamber rear wall, and the draft shield act together to enclose a weighing chamber (W). The weighing chamber rear wall has a first side (35) facing the draft shield and a second side (36), opposite the first side. A mounting unit (30) is movably connected to the first side of the weighing chamber rear wall and a position control unit (50) is operatively connected thereto, on the second side of the weighing chamber rear wall. An elongate slot (40) that passes through the rear wall receives the mounting unit about the first side and guides the mounting unit in a direction normal to the base body.
