Abstract

Various implementations of a pipette tip system are disclosed having a number of innovative features. In one implementation, a pipette tip tray includes a support plate and one or more sleeves extending downward from the bottom of the support plate. The sleeves can be configured to increase the stability of pipette tips stored in the tray. In another implementation, a pipette tip rack includes a rack base having one or more support walls extending underneath a pipette tip tray having downward extending sleeves. The thickness of the sidewalls of the sleeves can be reduced in the area of the support walls so that the support walls can reach the bottom of the support plate. In another implementation, a pipette tip rack includes a cover having a cushioning layer on the bottom of the cover that contacts the top of the pipette tips and stabilizes them during handling and transport.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of priority under 35 U.S.C §120 to U.S. Provisional Application Serial No. 62 / 772,269, filed November 28, 2018, which is based on the contents of that application and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates to pipette tip trays and / or pipette tip rack assemblies for use with liquid handling and dispensing systems.
