Sample storage body and sample storage body automatic system

摘要

[Problem to be solved] A sample storage tube and an automation system for operating a sample storage tube are provided, which can operate a lid capping operation, a carrying operation and lid decapping operation by using a robot arm. [Solution] A sample storage tube 100 comprises a tube body 120 and a lid 110. The lid 110 comprises a lid dent inner screw 112 accessible by a first lid access module 210 and a lid top recession and protrusion shape structure 113 accessible by a second lid access module. A capping operation and a carrying operation for the lid 110 against the tube body 120 is achieved by the rotation torque to the lid 110 given by the second lid access module via the lid top recession and protrusion shape structure 113. The pulling-up force by the rotation of the first lid access module via the lid dent inner screw 112 and the pushing-down force by the contacting of the second lid access module via the lid top recession and protrusion shape structure 113 at the same time, the lid is held firmly by pinching the both forces.
