Sample Tray For Automatic Sampler

View page
US Patent:
6644136, Nov 11, 2003
Filed:
Mar 2, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/796733
Inventors:
Christopher F. Carney - Wilmington DE
Fred L. Ferguson - Wilmington DE
John R. Reader - Newark DE
Weidong Liu - West Chester PA
Assignee:
TA Instruments-Waters, LLC - New Castle DE
International Classification:
G01N 100
US Classification:
7386425
Abstract:
The invention relates to a sample tray to be used by an automatic sampler having a sample arm. According to an aspect, the sample tray includes wells that can be accessed by a sample arm along a common arc of rotation, without moving the sample arm in and out. According to another aspect, the sample tray has several concentric rows of wells for holding sample pans and reference pans. Each row of wells lies along an inner circumference of the sample tray. The rows are placed so that when the sample tray is rotated, every well can be located on a common arc of rotation relative to a sample arm. According to another aspect, a well in a sample tray is configured with a pan receiving area and finger receiving areas. Gripper fingers can be extended into the finger receiving areas to access pans of different sizes.

US Patent:
6652015, Nov 25, 2003
Filed:
Mar 2, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/796748
Inventors:
Christopher F. Carney - Wilmington DE
Fred L. Ferguson - Wilmington DE
John R. Reader - Newark DE
Weidong Liu - West Chester PA
Assignee:
TA Instruments-Waters LLC - New Castle DE
International Classification:
B66C 142
US Classification:
294 864, 294106, 294116, 294902, 422 63, 901 38, 901 39
Abstract:
The invention relates to a gripper device. According to one aspect, the gripper device includes fingers with grasping ends. The gripper device includes a mechanism to cause the grasping ends to open and close. When the mechanism is engaged, the grasping ends open and close to define a circumference. According to another aspect, the gripper device includes fingers, an upper flat member, and a lower flat member. The fingers have grasping ends. The fingers are inserted into the upper flat member and lower flat member. When the upper flat member is rotated relative to the lower flat member, the grasping ends of the fingers open and close. According to another aspect, a gripper assembly has a gripper device with fingers and a rotating member. The gripper assembly also has a motor and mechanism for rotating the rotating member. The gripper device opens or closes the grasping ends in response to the rotation of the rotating member.

Method And Apparatus For Positional Calibration Of A Thermal Analysis Instrument

View page
US Patent:
6760679, Jul 6, 2004
Filed:
Mar 2, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/796750
Inventors:
Christopher F. Carney - Wilmington DE
Fred L. Ferguson - Wilmington DE
John R. Reader - Newark DE
Weidong Liu - West Chester PA
Jay A. Crosby - Newark DE
Assignee:
TA Instruments-Waters, LLC - New Castle DE
International Classification:
G01C 1738
US Classification:
702 94
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a technique for performing calibration of an automatic sampler device. According to an aspect, the automatic sampler device includes a cell with a sample platform and a reference platform; a sample arm; a sample tray, and a platen. The sample tray includes wells into which pans are inserted. The platen may include conductive and/or reflective areas for calibration. The sample arm has an electronic sensor and an optical sensor. The electrical sensor and the optical sensor are used to calibrate the positions of one or more of: the sample platform, the reference platform, and a well. According to another aspect, autocalibration is optimized by adjusting autocalibration results with a set of stored offset coefficients. The offset coefficients are generated by performing a manual calibration. The difference between the results of the manual calibration and an autocalibration are stored as offset coefficients.
