  • Publication number: 20060228267
    Abstract: The invention relates to a reaction chamber system (10, 70) for processing samples, comprising a reaction chamber (12), a sample carrier (26) arranged at least in the reaction chamber (12). When in operation, said sample carrier can be displaced in relation to the reaction chamber (12) by means of a drive device (30) which is coupled to the sample carrier (26). The reaction chamber system also comprises heating means (50) for warming the samples. The invention is characterized in that the heating means (50, 54) are arranged on the sample carrier (26) and can be displaced with the sample carrier (26) when in operation.

  • Patent number: 6652813
    Abstract: In a reaction chamber is located a platform for receiving individual samples and sample racks. The reaction chamber can be heated, cooled and evacuated. The samples are then radiation heated. The sample platform is shaken by magnetic coupling. The individual sample containers/reaction containers may be filled or emptied in use thorough ducts. The system has applications in the field of chemical combinatory synthesis, as evaporator or for related applications.

  • Patent number: 6482363
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system that feeds gaseous or liquid media into moveable sample vessels or reaction vessels in vacuum centrifuges or reaction chambers that are provided with an integrated shaker. An adapter plate fitted with needles that are allocated to individual vessels is arranged inside the centrifuge or reaction chamber above the sample vessels. The adapter plate is provided with a system for the introduction of the gaseous or liquid medium. The height of the adapter plate can be adjusted. This enables the depth at which the needles are introduced into the sample vessels to be chosen at will.
