Abstract

The present invention is to present a specimen processing apparatus, comprising: an imaging device for imaging a cap of a covered specimen container containing a specimen; an aspirating device including a specimen aspirating tube, moving the specimen aspirating tube so as to pass the specimen aspirating tube through the cap of the covered specimen container and aspirating the specimen contained in the covered specimen container via the specimen aspirating tube; an aspiration controller for controlling a movement of the specimen aspirating tube into the covered specimen container based on an image obtained by the imaging device; and a specimen processing device for processing the specimen aspirated by the aspirating device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a sample processing device capable of processing a sample aspirated from a sealed container by a suction unit. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-264340 discloses a sample processing apparatus in which a suction tube is inserted through a cap of a sealed sample container to suck a sample from the sample container, and processes the aspirated sample. As for the sample containers used in such a sample processing apparatus, there are various sample containers with different sizes and shapes. body container etc. Therefore, it is desired that even when these sample containers are mixed, an appropriate sample suction operation corresponding to the sample container can be performed. [0003] Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2001-264340 discloses a sample analyzer that inserts a suction tube into an airtight container to suck blood, a...
