Patent

CA 2270105

A support is provided that is useful with a pipette tip holder for pipette tips. The support (14) has a bottom member (16) and a pair of opposed side walls (18a, 18b). The side walls (18a, 18b) are attached to the bottom member (16) and extend therefrom at least a distance (d). The bottom member (16) and side walls (18a, 18b) form a cavity (20) therebetween. Each side wall (18a, 18b) defines a slot (22a, 22b) therein. The slots are in a facing relationship and extend between first ends (24a, 24b) and second ends (26a, 26b) along a support plane (28). The support plane (28) is parallel to the bottom member (16) and spaced the distance (d) above it. The distance (d) is such that when the tip holder (10) containing pipette tips (P) is inserted into the slots (22a, 22b), the tips (P) do not touch the bottom member (16) but continue to rest on the tip holder (10). Thus, the support (14) supports the pipette tips (P) and pipette tip holder (10) during the pipette tip removal process and resists inadvertent dislodging and lifting of tips (P) and holder (10) as the tips are removed.

L'invention concerne un support pouvant être utilisé avec un porte-pipettes. Le support (14) comporte un élément fond (16) et une paire de parois latérales opposées (18a, 18b). Les parois latérales (18a, 18b) sont fixées sur l'élément fond (16), à partir duquel elles s'étendent sur au moins une certaine distance (d). L'élément fond (16) et les parois (18a, 18b) forment entre eux une cavité (20). Chaque paroi latérale (18a, 18b) est creusée d'une fente (22a, 22b). Les fentes, opposées l'une à l'autre, s'étendent entre les premières extrémités (24a, 24b) et les secondes extrémités (26a, 26b) le long d'un plan support (28). Le plan support (28), parallèle à l'élément fond (16) et placé au-dessus de lui, en est séparé de la distance (d). La distance (d) est telle que quand le porte-pipettes (10) contenant les pointes (P) de pipettes est inséré dans les fentes (22a, 22b), lesdites pointes (P) ne touchent pas l'élément fond (16), mais continuent à reposer sur le porte-pipettes (10). Le support (14) supporte ainsi les pointes (P) de pipettes et le porte-pipettes (10) durant la sortie desdites pointes et il résiste à un délogement et à un soulèvement accidentels des pointes (P) et du porte-pipettes (10) au moment où l'on retire les pointes.
