Abstract:
An automatic tissue staining device includes a supply head that supplies a treatment fluid, a horizontal direction movement unit that moves the supply head in a horizontal direction, and a holding unit that holds a plurality of glass slides on which samples are set. The automatic tissue staining device further includes a control unit that judges an occupancy status of the horizontal direction movement unit in a condition that one or more of the glass slides are situated in a first region prior to supplying the treatment fluid from the supply head to one or more samples in the first region, suspends a start of a treatment for the samples in the first region when the horizontal direction movement unit is occupied, and permits the treatment for the samples in the first region when the horizontal direction movement unit is not occupied.

Claim (Index 21):
The automatic tissue staining device according to  claim 19 , further comprising a horizontal direction movement unit that moves the supply head in a horizontal direction,\n wherein:\n one or more of the glass slides are situated in a first region, \n one or more of the glass slides are situated in a second region different from the first region, \n the control unit judges whether or not a soonest treatment for one or more second samples on the one or more glass slides situated in the second region can be started, when the soonest treatment for the one or more second samples can be started, the control unit makes a comparison between contents of a treatment schedule for one or more first samples on the one or more glass slides situated in the first region and contents of a treatment schedule for the one or more second samples, \n when the contents of the treatment schedule for the one or more first samples have priority over the contents of the treatment schedule for the one or more second samples, the control unit permits a start of a soonest treatment for the one or more first samples using the horizontal direction movement unit, and \n when the contents of the treatment schedule for the one or more second samples have priority over the contents of the treatment schedule for the one or more first samples, the control unit suspends the start of the soonest treatment for the one or more first samples using the horizontal direction movement unit.
