Abstract:
A coupling for microcomponents, comprising: a plurality of abutting substantially plane-parallel plates (1) having etched surfaces defining microcomponents as a fluid microprocessor wherein, the plates (1) have congruent aperatures (5) extending therethrough, a connection block (6) abuts the plane-parallel plates (1) and is provided with line connections (4) for the supply and removal of fluid components to the fluid microprocessor, the connection block having a plurality of attachment webs (10) which project both through the congruent apertures (5) and through a pressure plate (11) on a rear side of the plane-parallel plates, the pressure plate being connected to an attachment device (12), the connection block (6) in a bearing surface (9) facing towards the plates (1) having line openings (4a), opposite each of which there is a line hole (2) in a top plate (1) abutted by the connection block (6), which line hole (2) is in communication with the fluid microprocessor.
