<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To safely convey a rack after the rack is arranged in an exact position on a conveyance mechanism. <P>SOLUTION: A conveyance mechanism 20 is a movement mechanism for moving a rack 13 capable of housing a sample container 11 along a predetermined linear moving direction. A drive part 22 drives the conveyance mechanism 20 so as to intermittently move the rack 13 along the moving direction. An erroneous arrangement detecting part 24 outputs erroneous arrangement signals when detecting that the rack 13 is in an erroneous arrangement state where the conveyance mechanism 20 cannot convey the rack 13 normally, and does not output the erroneous arrangement signals when detecting that the rack 13 is not in the erroneous arrangement state. A control part 28 controls the drive part 22 to stop a conveyance operation of the rack 13 operated by the conveyance mechanism 20 when the erroneous arrangement signals are output and to execute the conveyance operation of the rack 13 operated by the conveyance mechanism 20 when the erroneous arrangement signals are not output. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
