SIMPLIFIED TEST ELEMENT ADVANCING MECHANISM HAVING POSITIVE ENGAGEMENT WITH ELEMENT Abstract There is disclosed a test element advancing mechanism for use in an analyzer to move such test element from station to station, and a method of doing the same. The mechanism features a support surface over which the test elements move in a predetermined direction, a test element mover for engaging and mov- ing the test elements, means for reciprocating the mover along a surface disposed to one side of the sup- port surface, a portion of said mover being con- structed to engage the reciprocating means, and means for pivoting the mover about an axis that extends par- allel to the movement direction so that the engaging means are moved into or out of contact with such test elements. The test element mover includes a lever arm emanating from one side of the reciprocating means engaging portion, constructed to interact with the pivoting means. The mover also includes test element engaging means projecting from a side of the recip- rocating means engaging portion that is opposite to the side from which projects the lever arm of the mover, for engaging the test elements.
