Abstract
Uneven wear causes degradation of the individual parts of a syringe pump. Specifically, a seal piece composed of a soft material is easily damaged by uneven wear. To solve this problem, an automatic analysis device has a syringe pump that feeds and aspirates a liquid into and from a dispensing unit. The syringe pump has a syringe tube that stores a liquid, a plunger that moves up and down in the syringe tube, a plunger upper pressing component that contacts the plunger, a motive force transmitting part that transmits motive force to the plunger via the plunger upper pressing component, and a plunger lower pressing component that contacts the motive force transmitting part. The plunger upper pressing component and the motive force transmitting part make point contact with each other, and the motive force transmitting part and the plunger lower pressing component make point contact with each other.
