CA 2366978

The invention includes a heating apparatus for biological samples. The heating apparatus of the present invention includes a cover, a sample block having a plurality of openings in a top portion thereof for receiving a sample well tray having a plurality of sample wells, and an urging mechanism. The urging mechanism is positionable between the sample block and the sample well tray to urge the sample well tray away from the sample block when the cover is moved from a closed position toward an open position. The cover imparts a downward force on the top of the sample well tray to press the sample wells into the openings of the sample block when the heated cover is moved toward a closed position. The urging mechanism imparts an upward force on the sample well tray. The downward force imparted by the heated cover is sufficient to retain the sample well tray against the sample block when the cover is in the closed position.

L'invention concerne un appareil de chauffage pour des échantillons biologiques. L'appareil de chauffage de la présente invention comprend un couvercle, un bloc d'échantillon pourvus de plusieurs ouvertures dans sa portion supérieure en vue de recevoir une plaque à puits possédant plusieurs puits d'échantillon, et un mécanisme de poussée. Ce mécanisme de poussée peut être positionné entre le bloc d'échantillon et la plaque à puits en vue d'éloigner ladite plaque du bloc d'échantillon lorsque le couvercle est déplacé d'une position fermée vers une position ouverte. Le couvercle impartit un force dirigée vers le bas sur le sommet de la plaque à puits afin de comprimer les puits d'échantillon dans les ouvertures du bloc d'échantillon lorsque le couvercle chauffé est déplacé vers une position fermée. Le mécanisme de poussée impartit une force dirigée vers le haut sur la plaque à puits. La force dirigée vers le bas impartie par le couvercle chauffé est suffisante pour maintenir la plaque à puits contre le bloc d'échantillon lorsque le couvercle est en position fermée.
