Abstract

A blood-sampling-tube automatic preparation device comprising a blood-sampling-tube containing section having at least two blood-sampling-tube containers, a label printing and pasting unit that prints blood sampling information data and then pastes the printed label on a surface of a blood-sampling-tube, a hand pasting label printer, a blood-sampling-tube collecting section in which one or more blood-sampling-tubes with label pasted and/or one or more printed labels for hand pasting are collected for each patient, a blood-sampling-tube transferring device that receives a blood-sampling-tube from the blood-sampling-tube container and transfers it to the label printing and pasting unit, and a control device that controls each component. All blood-sampling-tube containers of the blood-sampling-tube containing section are arranged in a row on a same horizontal surface and the blood-sampling-tube transferring device, the label printing and pasting unit, and the hand pasting label printer are arranged to be mutually superposed under the blood-sampling-tube containing section.
