Apparatus for heating reaction vessel wells in micro-titration plate has base body to hold them, containing temperature control block which is moved up and down through movements of swing lid

摘要

The apparatus to heat reaction vessels, contained in micro-titration plates (8), has a base body (2) with a temperature control block (5) for heating/cooling. The body has an inner zone (7) to take the reaction plate, and a swing lid (13) to cover it. A lifting mechanism (6) raises and lowers the temperature control block, to press on the titration plate against the closed lid. A coupling (9), between the lid and the temperature control block lifting mechanism, moves the block upwards when the lid is closed, and downwards when the lid is opened. A lock hook (18) holds the lid in the closed position.
