A sample collection and testing device comprising: An elongate housing (1) having a first end and a second end and a longitudinal axis; an analytical element (4) retained in the housing; a sample collector assembly extending from the first end of the housing and comprising a sample collector (24) in fluid communication with the analytical element (4); a swing arm (2) attached to the housing by a pivot fitting (44), said swing arm having proximal and distal ends; and a cap (40) at the distal end of the swing arm (2); wherein the device comprises a slide to allow limited linear movement of the cap (40) substantially along the longitudinal axis of the housing (1), and wherein the pivot fitting (44) allows the swing arm to rotate about a pivot axis substantially perpendicular to the said longitudinal axis, whereby the swing arm (2) is movable between a sample collection configuration in which the cap (40) is remote from the sample collector (24) and a sample analysis configuration in which the cap (40) encloses the sample collector (24).

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de collection et d'essai d'échantillons qui comprend : un boîtier oblong (1) qui possède une première extrémité et une seconde extrémité et un axe longitudinal; un élément d'analyse (4) retenu dans le boîtier; un ensemble collecteur d'échantillons qui s'étend à partir de la première extrémité du boîtier et qui comprend un collecteur d'échantillons (24) en communication de fluide avec l'élément d'analyse (4); un bras pivotant (2) fixé au boîtier par une fixation pivotante (44), ledit bras pivotant comportant des extrémités proximale et distale; et un couvercle (40) au niveau de l'extrémité distale du bras pivotant (2). Le dispositif comprend un coulisseau pour permettre un mouvement linéaire limité du couvercle (40) sensiblement le long de l'axe longitudinal du boîtier (1). La fixation pivotante (44) permet au bras pivotant de tourner autour d'un axe de pivotement sensiblement perpendiculaire audit axe longitudinal, moyennant quoi le bras pivotant (2) est mobile entre une configuration de collection d'échantillons, dans laquelle le couvercle (40) est éloigné du collecteur d'échantillons (24), et une configuration d'analyse d'échantillons, dans laquelle le couvercle (40) enferme le collecteur d'échantillons (24).
