Abstract:
An apparatus for providing an object to be medically examined by blowing is provided where air is blown into a container in which an object to be medically examined is stored, so as to make the uniform distribution state of the object to be medically examined from the inside of the container, thereby ensuring the sameness of the object to be medically examined, which is to be extracted from the container.

Claim (Index 6):
An apparatus for handling examination objects, the apparatus comprising:\n a container holder; a suction unit positioned to be fluidically coupled to a container held by the container holder; a blower unit; a filter transfer device movable to transfer a filter from the suction unit to the blower unit; and a controller in communication with the suction unit and the blower unit, wherein the controller is programmed to cause the apparatus to perform operations including:\n prior to drawing a solution from the container and through the filter, outputting air from the suction unit such that the air flows upwardly through a lower side of a cap filter of the container to cause examination objects resting on an upper side of the cap filter to be uniformly spread in the solution held in the container; and \n after uniformly spreading the examination objects in the solution,\n sucking, using the suction unit, the solution through the cap filter to cause the examination objects to be collected along a collection surface of the filter, \n robotically moving, using the filter transfer device, the filter from the suction unit to the blower unit while the filter carries the examination objects located along the collection surface, and \n blowing, using the blower unit, the examination objects from the collection surface onto a surface of a slide.
