ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus which are particularly adapted for use in the selective and coordinated abstracting of samples to be examined. Essentially, the selector apparatus which has a support means may embody delivery means, receiving means, collection means, and control means. In a preferred embodiment, the receiving means is operatively connected to the support means and includes a plurality of receptacles for receiving flowable material. The delivery means is supported by the support means and may include at least one, but, desirably a plurality of, movable delivery members which carry flowable material therethrough. Each delivery member is selectively movable between a first position and a second position. Selective operation of the control means is effective to move selected ones of the delivery members to their second positions over the collection means and may return the same to their first positions over the receptacles thereby enabling portions of the flowable material to be separated into the collection means for purposes of subsequently analyzing the same. Also, in the preferred embodiment, a cleaning means may be operated at a preselected time and for a preselected duration between samples being taken for effectively enabling the cleaning of the collection means whenever the delivery members are in their first position.
