- the second finger portions are each inclined in the basic position relative to the central axis such that their free ends are closer to the central axis than the outer regions and that on the second joints, the second finger portions are displaced with the free ends away from the central axis to the outside ,
- This embodiment of the invention allows the inclusion of different vessels with different diameters of a larger diameter range. Because starting from a smallest radius, which is determined by the positions in which the free ends of the second finger portions are in the basic position, in fact must exceed this distance slightly, an ever larger radius can be selected, to which the holding fingers by dodging the second finger portions outwardly determined by articulated bending along the joint in the outer region as well as by evading the first finger portions outwardly by articulating the joints in the region of the base of the retaining fingers.
- the retaining fingers are each integrally formed.
- the retaining fingers can also be integrally formed with the base.
- the retaining finger itself or the retaining finger with the base is preferably at least the first or the second joint, are advantageously both hinges hinges or hinge hinges. These can be achieved for example by a corresponding material thinning in the joints or by appropriate lines.
- the finger portions may also have a certain flexibility in itself, which is also a flexible Dodging the holding fingers and applying a secure the vessel holding in position condition.
- a particularly suitable material for the retaining fingers is plastic, which can be determined by the choice of the particular plastic, the respective desired properties, such as flexibility, spring action in the finger sections, spring action in the joints and the like.
- the second finger portions are advantageously divided into two subsections, starting from which the first joint first, a first subsection extends in a stronger inclination relative to the central axis and this merges in a transition region in a second subsection with respect to the central axis lesser inclination. If necessary, another joint can be formed in this region of the transition, but this is not necessary for the realization of the invention.
- This transition region is advantageously about one third of the longitudinal extension of the second finger portions, starting from the outer region to the free ends.
- the retaining fingers of uniform angular distribution are distributed around the central axis.
- four retaining fingers which are arranged distributed at intervals of 90 ° at the same distance from the central axis around this proven.
- the holder according to the invention further advantageously has a support surface formed centrally between the holding fingers, on which a vessel held in the holder can be deposited with a vessel base.
- this bearing surface can be formed in the shape of a cup, that is to say convexly curved, in order in particular to securely support the base of tubular vessels, which typically assume a spherical shape.
- FIGS. 1 to 3 is shown with reference to three different views, a first possible embodiment of a holder according to the invention for cylindrical or conical vessels.
- a second embodiment is in Fig. 4 shown.
- the illustrations in the figures are purely schematic and by no means true to scale. Identical elements are provided with the same reference numerals.
- a holder for vessels, in particular sample vessels according to a first embodiment is in the FIGS. 1 to 3 shown and generally designated 1.
- the holder 1 has a total of four retaining fingers 2. These are connected with their respective base 3 with a base 4. In this transition region, the retaining fingers 2 form a first joint 5 (see FIG. Fig. 3 ) out.
- the four retaining fingers 2 are equidistant from a central axis 6 (see. Fig. 3 ) and each offset by an angle of 90 ° to each other about this central axis 6 distributed.
- Each retaining finger 2 has a first finger portion 7 (see. Fig. 3 ) extending away from the base 3 and away from the base 4 away to an outer region 8.
- the first finger section 7 is inclined in each case relative to the central axis 6, namely in such a way that the outer area points towards this.
- the central axis 6 is arranged substantially vertically.
- a second joint 9 in a second finger portion 10. This in turn runs inwards in the direction of the base 4 to a free end 11. This is the level above the base 4.
- the second Finger portions 10 are also inclined relative to the central axis 6 in such a way that the free ends 11 are in the normal position, as shown in the figures, to the central axis 6 out.
- the second finger sections 10 are again subdivided into a first subsection 12, which adjoins directly to the outer region 8 and the second joint 9 and in which the second finger section 10 extends with a greater inclination with respect to the central axis 6 and a second subsection 13, in FIG the second finger portion 10 is continued with a lesser inclination relative to the central axis 6 to the free end straight.
- a transition area 14 the first subsection 12 and the second subsection 13 are connected to each other.
- a joint may be formed, but need not. In the embodiment shown no joint is formed there.
- the retaining fingers 2 are formed in the embodiment shown from plastic and integrally with the base 4.
- the joints first joint 5 and second joint 9 are designed as film hinge joints.
