Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	This disclosure relates to an apparatus for transporting a vessel and to a sorting apparatus. The apparatus has at least one support device adapted to support the vessel in a reclined orientation, and a pushing mechanism adapted to transport the vessel along the support device. Advantageously, the apparatus is relatively simple and does not require vessels to contact an endless conveyor. Thus, vessels can be more readily rotated, weighed, etc. This disclosure also relates to a method of sorting vessels. One application of the apparatus and method is in the sorting of test tubes containing blood samples for testing.
