Abstract:
1. A device for separating a membrane to analyze from a support, the membrane being mounted in a frame, itself mounted on the support, said device comprising a body comprising a longitudinal recess for translational reception of the frame mounted on the support, the recess having a first end and a second end and longitudinal sides facing each other between said two ends, the device further comprising a shuttle for a first member of the frame and support between the first and the second end of the recess, which is adapted to serve as a bearing for the first member of the frame and support once the frame and support is disposed in the recess, each of the sides having a ramp adapted to engage a gripping member of a second member of the frame and support when the frame and support is translationally moved from the first to the second end, said ramps being adapted to separate the support from the frame during said translational movement by bearing on said gripping member of the second member of the frame and support, the first member of the frame and support then bearing on the shuttle, such that the frame and the support are separated once the translational movement has arrived at the second end.
