System for automatic opening of reagent vessels

摘要

The invention relates to an analysis system (100) which, by means of a reagent cartridge opening module (1), permits automatic opening of reagent vessels which are closed by screwing. The reagent cartridge opening module (1) for this purpose has catch elements which can lock securely against rotation in correspondingly configured catch elements (22) of a reagent vessel lid (20). In addition, the reagent cartridge opening module (1) and the reagent vessel lid (20) are connected via snap-in elements (5, 51, 54, 69, 70), so that transport of the reagent vessel lid (20) perpendicular to the plane of the rotational movement is possible.
