A method of transporting blood samples without using a capsule, in a tube system with an internal diameter that is greater than the external diameter of the applied blood samples and lesser than the lengths of the applied blood samples, the method including at least the following steps: •A: a blood sample (8) with an external diameter in the range Ø12 mm to Ø18 mm and with a length in the range from 80 mm to 110 mm is introduced in a tube system (1) that includes a dispatch station (3) and a receiver station (4), •A1: the physical dimensions of the blood sample (8) is checked and it is ensured that the blood sample (8) fits the tube system, •B: the blood sample (8) is dispatched from the dispatch station (3) by means of dispatching air.

The method of conveying samples using a continuous flow of pressurized air for conveying elongated items holding samples along a path in a tube system from at least one dispatch station, at which the elongated items are dispatched into the path, to at least one receiver station in the direction of the flow of pressurized air along the path. Individual items are sent in succession by means of pressurized air supplied to the tube system via the dispatch station and via a by-pass duct that extends around the at least one dispatch station from an upstream to a downstream side thereof. A constant flow of pressurized air is conducted via the by-pass around the at least one dispatch station into said path by which items already underway along the path in the tube system remain moving during dispatching of an item into the path.

A conveying system including at least one tube connection, at least one dispatch station and at least one receiver station, where items are conveyed by an airflow in the direction of the airflow in the pipe connection from a dispatch station to a receiver station. The new feature of a conveying system is that the tube connection has an inner cross-sectional area, preferably a circular cross-sectional area, with a size greater than the largest cross-sectional area of an item, and which is preferably provided with at least twice the cross-sectional area compared with the largest cross-sectional area of an item. Hereby is achieved the advantage that several items may be conveyed in the same tube connection at the same time, where these items are sent individually and successively, corresponding to one item being sent immediately after another.
