Abstract
A collection kit jig includes a kit holding portion, a container holding portion, and an elevation mechanism. The kit holding portion holds a collection kit by supporting a holder in a posture in which a housing chamber is positioned above an outflow path. The container holding portion is disposed below the kit holding portion and holds a sampling container. The elevation mechanism relatively raises or lowers the kit holding portion with respect to the container holding portion.
Claims20
A collection kit jig used to connect a collection kit to a sampling container, wherein:
- the collection kit comprises an inflow tube to which a medical bag housing a collection target is connected, a collection bag, and a holder holding the collection bag;
- the collection bag comprises a housing chamber connected to a downstream side of the inflow tube that houses the collection target, and an outflow path that is connected to a downstream side of the housing chamber that allows the collection target to flow out of the housing chamber and transfers the collection target toward the sampling container;
- and
- the collection kit jig comprises:
- a kit holding portion that holds the collection kit by supporting the holder in a posture in which the housing chamber is positioned above the outflow path;
- a container holding portion positioned below the kit holding portion and holding the sampling container;
- and
- an elevation mechanism that raises or lowers the kit holding portion with respect to the container holding portion.

A collection kit jig, comprising:
- a kit holder that is arranged to support a collection kit in a held position such that a housing chamber of the collection kit is arranged above an outflow path of the collection kit;
- a container holder that is arranged below the kit holder, wherein the container holder is arranged to receive and hold at least one sampling container;
- and
- a press mechanism that is interconnected to the kit holder, wherein the press mechanism moves the kit holder relative to the container holder between a disconnected state and a connected state, wherein, in the disconnected state, the kit holder is arranged at a first distance apart from the container holder, wherein, in the connected state, the kit holder is arranged at a second distance apart from the container holder, and wherein the first distance is greater than the second distance.
