- the second turret component 10b also comprises at least one third vessel structure
- its web element can be arranged in a third distance directed radially away from the rotation axis 11 to a side inner wall of the third vessel structure which is not equal to the distances a1 and a2 may thus be equal to the number of vessel structures of the second turret component 10b.
- each of the at least two vessel structures 38-1 and 38-2 of the second turret component 10b is assigned a respective vascular structure 14-1 and 14-2 of the first turret component 10a.
- the respective vessel structure 14-1 and 14-2 of the first turret component 10a has an emphasis 50-1 and 50-2, which in a radially away from the rotation axis 11 directed away distance a1 or a2 to an adjacent to the contact side 58 edge 66 of a Side outer wall 68 of the first turret member 10a on the contact side 58 is arranged.
- a first emphasis 50-1 of a first vessel structure 14-1 of the first turret component 10a which is assigned to the first vessel structure 38-1 of the second turret component 10b, is thus in the radial direction away from the rotation axis 11 first distance a1 to the edge 66 of Side outer wall 68 of the first turret member 10a disposed on the contact side 58.
- a second emphasis 50-2 of a second vessel structure 14-2 of the first turret component 10a which is assigned to the second vessel structure 38-1 of the second turret component 10b, in the second distance a2 directed radially away from the rotation axis 11 to the edge 66 of FIG Side outer wall 68 of the first turret member 10a disposed on the contact side 58.
- a switching logic can be realized by means of which a first material 16-1 filled into the first vessel structure 14-1 of the first turret component 10a and a different second material 16-2 filled into the second vessel structure 14-2 of the first turret component 10a are selectively / purposefully in certain vascular structures 38-1 and 38-2 of the second turret component 10b are transferable.
- Fig. 7a shows a rotational position of the two turret components 10a and 10b to each other, in which the vessel structures 14-1 and 14-2 of the first turret member 10a to a Angle of rotation ⁇ not equal to zero with respect to their associated vessel structures 38-1 and 38-2 of the second turret component 10b are rotated.
- the non-zero rotational angle ⁇ is in Fig.
- the distance is shown as a distance.
- the first turret member 10a partially plunges into the second turret member 10b, however, each of the vessel structures 14-1 and 14-2 of the first turret component 10a immersed in a unassigned vessel structure 38-1 and 38-2 of the second turret component 10b (see Fig. 7b ).
- the first vessel structure 14-1 of the first turret component 10a dips, for example, into the second vessel structure 38-1 of the second turret component 10b.
- the first highlight 50-1 of the first vessel structure 14-1 of the first turret member 10a along its dip path 69-1 does not strike the second support structure 60-2 of the second vial structure 38-2 of the second turret member 10b.
- the second highlight 50-2 of the second vessel structure 14-2 of the first turret member 10a does not contact the first bearing structure 60-1 of the first vessel structure 38-1 of the second turret member 10b along its dip path 69-2.
- the difference between the distances a1 and a2 is thus selected to be sufficiently large to allow contact between the first prominence 50-1 of the first vessel structure 14-1 of the first revolving member 10a and the second abutment structure 60-2 of the second vessel structure 38-1 of the second revolving member 10b, despite the immersion of the prevent first vessel structure 14-1 of the first turret member 10a in the second vessel structure 38-1 of the second turret member 10b.
- first turret component 10a on the side outer wall 68 on a diameter extension which is formed for example as an external step 70.
- the space defined by the side inner walls 64-1 and 64-2 of the second turret component 10b has a maximum extent perpendicular to the axis of rotation which is smaller than the maximum diameter of the side outer wall 68 of the first turret component 10a.
- the second turret component 10b thus exerts no force on the predetermined breaking points 20 of the first turret component 10a, despite the immersion of the first vessel structure 14-1 of the first turret component 10a into the second vessel structure 38-2 of the second turret component 10b.
- the two turret parts 10a and 10b are then by means of a Force Fk of a (not outlined) ballpoint pen mechanism pulled apart again.
- a renewed tightening of the two turret components 10a and 10b thus leads to immersion of the first vessel structure 14-1 of the first turret component 10a into the first vessel structure 38-1 of the second turret component 10b and to immersion of the second vessel structure 14 -2 of the first turret component 10a into the second vessel structure 38-2 of the second turret component 10b.
- the emphasis 50-1 and 50-2 respectively contact their associated support structures 60-1 and 60-2, so that the predetermined breaking points 20 are broken and material outlet openings in the vessel structures 14-1 and 14-2 of the first turret component 10a are opened.
- the various materials 16-1 and 16-2 can thus be filled in a targeted manner into their assigned vessel structures 38-1 and 38-2 of the second turret component 10b.
- a vessel structure 38-1 and 38-2 of the second turret component 10b can also have a plurality of support structures 60-1 and 60-2 at different positions.
- the vessel structure 38-1 and 38-2 of the second turret member 10b may be coupled to a plurality of vessel structures 14-1 and 14-2 of the first turret member 10a.
- the further vessel structure 38-1 and 38-2 of the second turret component 10b can thus be used advantageously as a mixing and / or incubation chamber.
- a vessel structure 14-1 and 14-2 of the first turret member 10a may have a plurality of highlights 50-1 and 50-2 at different positions.
- a reagent vessel insertion part according to the technology according to the invention also apply to a reagent vessel for a centrifuge and / or a pressure varying device, which is designed in accordance with the described reagent vessel insertion parts.
- the advantageous reagent vessel has an outer wall, which is formed so that the reagent vessel in a centrifuge and / or in a Druckvariiervoriques can be used.
- the reagent vessel is designed so that a reliable hold of the reagent vessel is ensured in the operated centrifuge and / or in the operated Druckvariiervorraum.
- a reagent vessel for a centrifuge and / or a pressure variegating device can thus be understood to mean a reagent vessel which, due to its (external) shape, lends itself well to operation of the centrifuge with a comparatively high rotational speed and / or application of a superordinate to the atmospheric pressure - And / or negative pressure by means of Druckvariiervoriques.
- the advantageous reagent vessel may have vessel structures, such as channels, reaction chambers, storage chambers and / or active components, such as valves and / or pumps.
- the reaction vessel may comprise actuation, detection and control units.
- the advantageous reagent vessel has at least one turret component arranged in the reagent vessel with at least one predetermined breaking point.
