Embodiment Construction
[0069] according to figure 1 , the laboratory robot 1 has a plurality of work stations 3 for standardized microtiter plates on a flat work area 2 (work plate). Correspondingly, each working station 3 has dimensions adapted to the bottom surface of a standardized microtiter plate.
[0070] Each working position 3 is defined by an assembly of first orientation elements 4 formed by four first pins 5 fixedly connected to the working area and a first spring element 6 . Two first pins 5 are arranged at the ends of one long side and one short side of the work station next to one corner of the work station. The first spring element 6 is arranged on the corner of the working position diametrically opposite the corner. Adjacent to said long side and short side of the work station 3, a further first pin 5 is arranged next to the other corner.
[0071] In this example, the laboratory robot has six work positions 3 .

The invention relates to an automated laboratory machine for automatic handling of laboratory samples, comprising: a working zone; a plurality of predetermined workstations for laboratory articles in the working zone, which workstations have dimensions adapted to the base of a standardized microtiter plate; at least one movement apparatus for moving tools above the workstation; at least one transport tool which is movable by means of the movement apparatus in order to displace laboratory articles in the working zone; at least one pipetting tool which is movable by means of the movement apparatus in order to receive and dispense pipette tips and receive and dispense liquids by means of the pipette tips in the working zone; and a holder for pipette tip carriers, wherein the holder for pipette tip carriers comprises at least one carrying device having a rectangular through-opening and a supporting device connected to the carrying device, and wherein the holder comprising the supporting device is placed on a workstation alongside a pipette tip carrier mounted on the workstation, such that the carrying device is arranged above the pipette tip carrier, which has a base adapted to the base of the standardized microtiter plate, by means of the pipetting tool pipette tips can be received through the through-opening of the carrying device from the pipette tip carrier mounted below the carrying device, and a pipette tip carrier, which has a base adapted to the base of the standardized microtiter plate, can be mounted on the carrying device, wherein the automated laboratory machine comprises an electronic control device which is connected to the movement apparatus and is designed to control the movements of the transport tool and of the pipetting tool by means of the movement apparatus, such that by means of the pipetting tool pipette tips can be received from the pipette tip carrier mounted on the carrying device, the pipette tip carrier can be removed from the carrying device by means of the transport tool, and by means of the pipetting tool pipette tips can be received through the through-opening of the carrying device from the pipette tip carrier mounted below said carrying device.
Description
technical field [0001] The invention relates to a laboratory robot for automatic processing of laboratory samples. Background technique [0002] Laboratory robots are used in particular in biological, biochemical, medical, forensic or chemical laboratories for the handling of mostly liquid laboratory samples. The processing includes, in particular, metering, mixing, dispensing, dilution, tempering, biochemical or chemical modification or analysis of the sample. Here, the sample can be altered physically, biochemically, chemically or otherwise in its quantity, composition. Laboratory robots especially for setting up dilution series, dispensing of reagents, transfer of samples from vessels to plates, normalization of samples, PCR setup, real-time PCR, nucleic acid cleanup using magnetic beads, sample pretreatment for next generation sequencing and handle Zell-Essay or routine pipetting. Automated sample handling is faster, more precise and more reliable than manual handling...
