Patent number: 9566580Abstract: The invention relates to liquid dispensing and concerns a pipette comprising at least one aspiration channel with a piston. At the lower end of the aspiration channel there is an extension channel (3) and at its end a pipette tip mounting piece (4) onto which a pipette tip (5) is attached. On the pipette tip mounting piece there is a surrounding groove (17) and in the groove a sealing ring (18). The width of the groove in the axial direction is at least 1.1 times the thickness of the sealing ring in the axial direction. When the mounting piece is pushed into the pipette tip, the inner wall of the tip can move the sealing ring upwards in the groove. The construction can provide a reliable sealing despite of inherent dimension differences between different tips and mounting pieces.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2013Date of Patent: February 14, 2017Assignee: THERMO FISHER SCIENTIFIC OYInventors: Ari Jaaskelainen, Mikael Lind, Juha Telimaa, Aaro Tuominen
