摘要：An apparatus for blood analysis to determine the rate of corpuscle

sedimentation. The apparatus has a first support (1) with several graduated tubes (4)open at both ends and held vertically in spaced relation on the first support. The tubes(4) have enlarged lower ends (4b) which can diverge. A second support (2) has bloodsample containers (13) of larger diameter than the vertical tubes on the first support.The containers (13) are spaced apart on the said second support, the same distance asthe tubes on the first support so the containers are respectively, vertically below thetubes. Sealing and flow inducing members engage in the diverging lower ends (4b) of therespective tubes. The support means (1, 2) are movable with respect to each otherbetween a first position in which the tubes are vertically above the containers, and asecond position in which the lower ends of the tubes are immersed in the containers. Thesealing and flow inducing members are mounted on the first support for simultaneousmovement between a lower position away from the tubes and an upper positionengaging within the enlarged ends of the tubes. The movement of the sealing membersinto engagement with the interior of the tubes causes a predetermined quantity of bloodto be forced upwardly into the smaller diameter graduated portions of each tube topermit determining the sedimentation rates of the different samples.
