Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Analysesystem, bei dem mindestens zwei Module (2-6) durch einen Verbindungsstecker (7) miteinander in Kontakt stehen, sowie ein Verbindungsstecker, der zur Verbindung von Modulen geeignet ist. Bei einer Verbindung zweier Module mittels des Verbindungssteckers verläuft ein Teil des Steckers teilweise unterhalb der Böden der Module, so daß eine Befestigung der Steckverbindung aufgrund des Eigengewichtes der Module erfolgt.

Figure 00000001
The invention relates to an analysis system in which at least two modules (2-6) by a connector (7) are in contact with each other, as well as a connector that is suitable for connecting modules. In a compound of two modules by means of the connector part of the plug runs partially below the bottoms of the modules, so that attachment of the connector is due to the weight of the modules.
