Problems solved by technology

[0005] But the kinematic mechanism described above is very problematic in practice, because it is impossible to realize a free movement of the sample to be positioned and / or to be received
In this case, the use of the corresponding kinematic mechanism is severely restricted or its application requires a completely special (rigid) processing station configuration

Embodiment Construction

[0027] 1 schematically depicts an embodiment of a device for processing cells or tissue products according to the present invention, which specifically relates to an automatic staining device. For the principle structure of an automatic staining device, please refer to the document of EP 0849582A1.

[0028] The automatic staining device 1 comprises a plurality of processing stations 2, wherein the stations are delimited here by containers 3 for liquids or reactants.

[0029] In addition, a conveying device is provided, which conveys the objects (not shown in the drawing) into the processing station 2 and transports them out there.

[0030] According to the requirements of the invention, the conveying device 4 includes a robot arm 5 for positioning the articles freely and for moving them in space. This manipulator 5 enables the conveying device 4 to have a great deal of flexibility, that is to say a purposeful realization of an arbitrary positioning of the objects in space, tha...

Abstract

An apparatus for treating objects, in particular cytological or histological specimens, having multiple processing stations (2) and a transport device (4) for delivering the objects into and out of the processing stations (2), is characterized in that the transport device (4) comprises a robot arm (5) that is movable in three dimensions and provides for arbitrary positioning of the objects.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for processing objects, in particular cellular or tissue preparations, which has a plurality of processing stations and a transport device for feeding the objects into and out of the processing stations. Background technique [0002] Devices of this described type are known in various fields. At the same time, it is a completely general device for handling and / or processing any object. wherein said items are either input to a single processing station or are sent to a plurality of processing stations in a mostly predetermined sequence, where they are processed and then eventually sent away from the processing station, wherein different groups The processing stations can be arranged one behind the other and / or side by side. [0003] See document EP0849582A1 by way of example only. This document discloses a device for processing objects, in particular cellular or tissue preparations. In this case, the cellular or tis...
