Abstract
An analysis system includes analysis station structure, sample station structure spaced from the analysis station structure along a straight line path, support shaft structure disposed along an axis parallel to the straight line path, and a transport carriage with probe structure mounted on the carriage. The transport carriage is mounted on the support shaft structure for movement along that shaft and is keyed thereto for pivoting movement in response to rotation of the shaft. A first drive includes a drive motor and cable structure coupled between the carriage and the drive motor for moving the transport carriage along the shaft to selectively position the probe structure at the sample and analysis stations, and a second drive rotates the shaft for inserting the probe into and withdrawing the probe from chamber structure at the sample and analysis stations. Metering means coupled to the probe flows liquid into and discharges liquid from the probe.
