ABSTRACT:
A pipette device capable of solving such problems as that a nozzle tip cannot be attached thereto because the device is too small in size or that an accurate drawing-in and ejection of liquids cannot be performed because a sufficient seal cannot be achieved between a shaft body lower end portion and a nozzle tip. The pipette device includes: a hollow shaft body having a lower end portion capable of being fitted into an upper end opening of a nozzle tip having the shape of an inverted cone and connected at the interior thereof to an air supply/ejection device for the drawing-in and ejection of liquids; a slide block for holding the shaft body in a manner movable up and down and rotatable about the axis thereof; a support for holding the slide block movable in an up and down direction; and a driver unit for moving the slide block up and down with respect to the support. A helical groove is formed on a part of the periphery of the upper end portion of the shaft body. The slide block has a projection adapted to mesh with the helical groove. In this pipette device, when the shaft body and the slide block are moved relative to each other in an up and down direction, the helical groove and the projection cause a rotation of the shaft body about the axis thereof.
