Abstract: A dual centrifuge (10) embodies the following: a driveshaft (16), a rotor (20), which is mounted on the driveshaft (16) and which can be removed axially in a removal direction (E), for a dual centrifuge, having at least one rotational unit (30); an opening (18) in the rotor (20), wherein an end region (16a) of the driveshaft (16) at least engages into said opening; and an additional drive mechanism (32) for the rotational unit or the rotational units (30). The dual centrifuge additionally has a design for operating various additional types of rotors; however, only one rotor (20, 40, 50) can be arranged on the driveshaft (16) at all times. The various rotor types (40, 50) are also adapted to the additional drive mechanism (32) for the rotational units (30) such that the function is not adversely affected. A design for operating at least one angular head rotor (40) and a swing-out rotor (50). For this purpose, the driveshaft (16) and the various rotor types (40, 50) are adapted to each other.

Abstract: A rotor (10) of a dual centrifuge which can be rotated about a drive axis (A) in a centrifuge, which rotor comprises at least two rotary units (26) that are arranged symmetrically to one another and have a bearing (32) and a rotary head (30) which is connected to the bearing (32) and which is mounted in the bearing (32) so as to be rotatable about a rotational axis (R1, R2), which rotary head (30) can be driven about the rotational axis (R1, R2) relative to the rotor by another rotary mechanism (46) of the centrifuge and has a rotary head receiving unit (80) for at least one sample container or at least one sample container receptacle (100, 110), with the rotational axis (R1, R2) of the rotary head (30) being inclined relative to the drive axis (A) of the rotor, the rotary head receiving unit (80) being designed to receive an elongated sample container receptacle (100, 110) or an elongated sample container, and the longitudinal axis of the sample container receptacle (100, 110) introduced into the rotary head

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for the homogenization and separation of media (10), comprising a centrifuge (40, 70) having a centrifuge rotor (14, 44, 74) which can be rotated about a motor axis (A) of a centrifuge motor (12, 42, 72) and which includes a rotor body, connected to which is at least one rotation unit (16, 48, 80) in such a way that it is additionally adapted to be rotatable about an axis of rotation of a rotation unit, which axis is different from the motor axis (A), and that it can be driven via a rotation unit drive, with means being provided which can be used to set at least two different rotation speeds of the rotation unit (16, 48, 80), and furthermore the rotation unit (16, 48, 80) has toothing (8) on its periphery by which the rotation unit (16, 48, 80) can be driven. The invention is characterized in that the rotation unit drive comprises toothing which is associated with the centrifuge motor.
