  • Publication number: 20180243582
    Abstract: Provided is a small and handy phototherapy apparatus that receives an ultraviolet light source in a housing, and is able to appropriately irradiate a patient with ultraviolet light emitted from the ultraviolet light source while not irradiating an operator with the ultraviolet light. The housing of the phototherapy apparatus has a light guide path through which the ultraviolet light from the ultraviolet light source passes, a leading end of the light guide path has an irradiation window for emitting the ultraviolet light to the outside, and an observation window or windows are formed in at least one side surface of the light guide path near the irradiation window, whereby irradiation treatment while observing an affected part becomes possible, and irradiation of only the affected part with the ultraviolet light becomes possible without erroneously irradiating other parts with the ultraviolet light.

  • Patent number: 7688449
    Abstract: An absorptiometry microchip testing device with which, after one-time startup, test results of blood analyses are automatically obtained without a special tester. The microchip testing device has a rotary drive source which can be stopped at a prescribed angle; a centrifugal rotor connected to the rotary drive source via the main shaft; a direction switching mechanism for controlling the main shaft gear; a planetary gear which engages the main shaft gear which is located on the centrifugal rotor; a chip holder which turns together with the planetary gear; a microchip which is held in the chip holder and has a part for measuring absorbance; a light source from which light is incident in the absorbance measuring part of the microchip; a detector which receives light transmitted by the absorbance measuring part; and a controller which controls movements of the rotary drive source and the direction switching mechanism.

  • Patent number: 7636162
    Abstract: Microchip testing device having a chip holder that can be exactly positioned and from which adhered sample liquid can be removed easily. The microchip testing device has a chip holder, with a cover and a box area, mounted on a measurement stage, a microchip that has an optical measurement chamber is housed in the chip holder, a light source that radiates light on the optical measurement chamber of the microchip, a detector that receives light that has passed through the optical measurement chamber, and a controller that controls the device. The chip holder has reference planes to position the microchip in two directions perpendicular to the optical axis of the optical measurement chamber and pushers that push the microchip against the reference planes, so that the microchip is positioned within the chip holder by closing the cover of the chip holder.
