Embodiment Construction

[0016] Referring to the drawings, FIG. 1 illustrates a perspective view of an exemplary sample collection container rack cover 101 . In particular, in the exemplary embodiment of FIG. 1 , the sample collection container rack cover components include a top 102 , an aperture 104 , an identifier 106 and a protruding side 108 . The protruding side is connected to the edge 103 of the top. Although the protruding side is described as perpendicular to the top in FIG. 1 , those skilled in the art understand that this vertical arrangement is not required. The protruding sides may be attached to the top of the sample collection container rack cover in any non-parallel or non-substantially parallel manner. As a non-limiting example, the protruding side may be attached to the edge 103 of the top at a 60 degree angle. Generally, as used herein, non-parallel and non-substantially parallel describe the manner in which the protruding sides are joined to the edges in a different plane than t...

Abstract

A sample collection container rack overlay comprising a top with apertures and identifying marks identifying the apertures and at least one projecting side is provided. The sample collection container overlay rack is adapted to fit sample collection container racks and provide ease of identification of sample collection containers present in the sample collection container racks. The apertures of the sample collection container rack may include any size adapted to receive sample collection containers. The at least one projecting side provides added stability to the sample collection container rack overlay. Additionally the at least one projecting side may include a knurled portion or a finger indentation for ease of placements and of removal of the rack overly from the rack.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to devices for labeling scientific samples contained in sample collection container racks or holders, including devices for labeling scientific samples collected between automated liquid handlers. Background technique [0002] It is known in the art to use sample collection container racks or holders to hold test tubes and various other types of sample collection containers, such as microcentrifuge tubes. In the prior art, sample collection container racks and holders come in a variety of different sizes and different sample collection container capabilities. [0003] Numbered rack covers for sample collection containers mounted on sample collection container racks and holders are also known in the prior art. However, various problems exist with previously known shelf covers. For example, some shelf covers lack protruding sides. Also, known rack covers are made of thicker gauge steel, making them heavier and more likely...
