Abstract

The invention relates to a device for positioning a biological sample analysis plate on an observation device comprising an observation lens and a chassis having a plate support assembly [20]. This assembly comprises a first frame [21] and a second frame [22] able to slide in a plane perpendicular to the observation axis, assumed to be vertical, with the first and second frames each able to move in a direction perpendicular to the direction of movement of the other frame; and a third frame [23] supported by the second frame [22] by means [30] used to maintain said third frame in a plane perpendicular to the observation axis, while leaving the movement free in a vertical plane.
