Patent

CA 2215865

The present invention describes an automated blood culture apparatus having a bell-shaped hollow rotatable drum for holding a number of blood culture bottles. All bottles are interrogated by sensor stations located within the drum with the whole system having only one moving part, and no flexible electric or optic cables. Consequently, the expected reliability is high, and the production cost should be low. The apparatus also includes an "auto-unloading" and sorting mechanism for sorting final "negative" and "positive" bottles.

Appareil automatisé pour hémoculture, comportant un tambour rotatif creux en forme de cloche pour recevoir des flacons d'hémoculture. Tous les flacons sont vérifiés par des stations détectrices situées à l'intérieur du tambour, l'ensemble du système ne possédant qu'une seule pièce mobile, sans câble flexible électrique ni optique. L'appareil devrait donc être très fiable, avec un bas coût de production. Il possède aussi un mécanisme pour « autodéchargement » et tri final en flacons « positifs » et flacons « négatifs ».
