Abstract

Améliorations dont le but est d'assurer l'alimentation automatique de panneaux en nombre considérable et porteurs d'échantillons bactériens à analyser. A cet effet, on prévoit une tour (4) d'empilement pour les panneaux à traiter placée latéralement par rapport au module d'analyse, une deuxième tour (5) pour les panneaux déjà traités, plaquée contre la tour précédente, et un chariot (3) intermédiaire se déplaçant horizontalement et verticalement auquel est associé un support (1) pour les panneaux, le chariot étant apte à extraire un à un les panneaux de la tour (4) afin de les placer dans la zone de travail de l'appareil photonumérique en vue de leur analyse et pour les placer finalement sur la tour (5) constituée des panneaux traités.
