Sample measuring apparatus with air circulation for reagent storage
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11994527B2) discloses a sample measuring apparatus designed to measure samples using a reagent stored in a reagent container. The apparatus includes a measuring unit, a reagent storage with a case storing the reagent container, a rotation table supporting the reagent container holder, a fin for circulating air in the storage, and a driving unit rotating the table to circulate air through multiple openings. Additionally, a cooling unit can cool the air in the storage, enhancing the efficiency of the measuring process.
Furthermore, the apparatus features multiple reagent container holders arranged around the rotation table, each driven by a separate motor for precise rotation. The design ensures that the rotation axes of the table and the container holders align, optimizing the sample measuring process. The inclusion of a joint part for support and a protrusion on the fin integrated with the rotation table enhances the apparatus's functionality and stability during operation, making it a comprehensive solution for sample measurement needs.
