PURPOSE: To process multiple analysis samples with great flexibility with respect to analysis characteristics obtained from respective samples by arranging multiple cuvette bolding devices along the circumference part of a plate type rotor magazine. CONSTITUTION: A circumference part 2 of a cuvette carrier is formed into a polygon, while an outside face of the cuvette carrier is constructed of 99 pieces of flat small faces 2a. By means of the flat faces of the small faces 2a, cuvettes 3 are easily brought into contact with these flat faces, and the outside walls 3a of the cuvettes 3 are also flat. Therefore, each of the respective small faces 2a serves as a face to which the cuvette 3 is placed. That is, a rotor magazine 1 is provided with 99 pieces of spaces for magazines at most A ring type face 4 of the rotor magazine 1 is vertically adjacent to the outside wall 3a constructed of the small faces 2a. On the upper face of each flange 3b, a recess part, 3c which is surely engaged with a holding device 5 is arranged. An elastic holding element 7 allows removal/insertion of the cuvette 3 by means of a simple linear motion. Therefore, an accurate position of the cuvette 3 is limited in the radius direction and in the vertical direction. |
