Storage device, automatic analysis device, and storage method

Abstract

The present invention is provided with: a container cassette (9) for accommodating QC specimen containers (11) to be stored; and an annular holder (8) provided with a plurality of insertion holes (10) into which the container cases (9) can be inserted from above. The annular holder (8) has an elastic tongue part (35) that extends upward along the side surface of the container case (9) and elastically deforms in a direction away from the surface of the container case (9). The container case (9) has a first protrusion (25) that engages with the elastic tongue (35) and fixes the container case (9) when inserted into the insertion hole (10). As a result, provided are a storage device, an automatic analysis device, and a storage method in which the number of storage objects that can be stored in a storage cabinet is increased and the size of the storage cabinet itself is reduced.
