  • NMR arrangement and method for transporting a sample tube in an NMR arrangement
    Patent number: 11231471
    Abstract: Provided is an NMR arrangement, including an NMR device, a storage system for storing sample tubes, and a transport system for transporting the sample tubes from the storage system to the NMR device and from the NMR device to the storage system. The storage system is mechanically decoupled from the NMR device. Furthermore, the transport system includes a first guiding element that is mechanically coupled to the storage system; a second guiding element that is mechanically coupled to the NMR device; and a sample tube carrier that can be moved between the first guiding element and the second guiding element so as to transport the sample tubes from the storage system to the NMR device and from the NMR device to the storage.
    Type: Grant

  • Apparatus for transporting individual sheets through a device for exposing or printing the sheets
    Patent number: 6481710
    Abstract: An apparatus for transporting individual sheets past an exposure station for exposing the individual sheets, including a roller that has parallel spaced annular grooves and has plurality of parallel endless belts on each side of the exposure station, which belts respectively overlie the grooves for pressing the individual sheets against the roller. Guiding fingers extend into the roller parallel annular grooves for lifting the individual sheets from the roller.
