  • Patent number: 10688503
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a hybrid rotor for a centrifuge, in particular a laboratory centrifuge, comprising a rotor base body with a receptacle side and a drive side, means for fixing a drive shaft for rotating the hybrid rotor about a rotation axis (R), at least two receptacles with an insertion opening for centrifuge containers arranged on the receptacle side of the rotor base body, a rotary bearing for rotatably mounting a swinging container being formed on at least one receptacle and a fixed bearing for fixedly mounting a fixed angle container being formed on at least one receptacle. The present invention further relates to a set for a centrifuge, comprising a hybrid rotor and at least one fixed angle container. Furthermore, the present invention relates to fixed angle container for use in a hybrid rotor or in a set.
