A centrifugal separator and a method for separation of particles from a gas stream is disclosed. The separator includes a frame, a gas inlet and a gas outlet. A centrifugal rotor is arranged to be rotatable in the frame around a rotational axis and includes a plurality of separation plates defining separation passages between the plates. A central gas chamber in the rotor communicates with a radially inner portion of the separation passages and the gas outlet. A space surrounding the rotor communicates with a radially outer portion of the separation passages and the gas inlet. A device is configured to bring the gas stream in rotation upstream of the rotor. The centrifugal rotor is configured such that the rotational flow of the gas mixture drives the rotation of the centrifugal rotor for separating particles from the same gas stream being conducted from the space surrounding the rotor, through the separation passages between the plates and towards the central gas chamber.

A centrifuge device is provided for the sizing and separation of constituents of a biologic mixture, e.g., adipose tissue. The device provides for the mechanical breaking down of the fibrous structure in the tissue by centrifugation causing the tissue to pass through a mesh element, or a sizing helix, or an extrusion element, whereupon the material is reduced to a slurry. This processed material may then be separated by centrifugation into its constituents, in order to harvest the fraction containing the multipotent cells. These multipotent cells may be utilized for various medical procedures to stimulate healing and tissue regeneration.

A device for processing a liquid sample containing cells is provided. The device includes a stationary part and a rotatable part. The stationary part includes a cap, a socket connected to the cap, and a tube located within the cap and the socket. The rotatable part includes a centrifugal processing chamber, and a flow guide located within the centrifugal processing chamber. The stationary part and the rotatable part are connected by a plurality of rotary dynamic seals allowing rotation of the rotatable part relative to the stationary part. The cap includes a first port connected to an inlet, and a second port connected to an outlet. The centrifugal processing chamber includes an upper wall, a neck extending from the upper wall, a sidewall and a bottom wall tilting downwardly.

A discontinuously operated centrifuge, in particular sugar or starch centrifuge, includes a rotating, cylindrical centrifuge basket having a casing provided with openings and having an upper open end. An inner screen element formed as a composite unit of a screen mat and a support mat is insertable as a prefabricated, single-piece screen element into the centrifuge basket via the upper open end thereof. The screen element has ends abutting in a circumferential direction within the centrifuge basket, with axially extending end strips attached to the abutting ends of the screen element. A closure element in the form of an axially extending clamping strip cooperates with the end strips so as to lock and radially brace the screen element against the centrifuge basket casing. Attached on the centrifuge basket is an upper limiting flange, with an annular cover being screwed onto an upper limiting flange for securing the screen element.

Wear resistant centrifuge tile assemblies are disclosed that include a backing portion and a wear-resistant tile. Wear resistant centrifuge tile assemblies are provided with self-fixturing features to provide a desired mounting position and to restrict movement of the wear-resistant tile with respect to the backing plate during bonding. The self-fixturing features provide the ability to perform repeatable and consistent bonding of the wear-resistant tile to the backing plate.

A lower partition wall having a through hole vertically penetrates the lower partition wall center. A spindle is inserted into the through hole. The top surface side of the lower partition wall includes a convex portion, a groove, and a drain hole. The convex portion is concentrically disposed at the through hole periphery. The groove extends, from an outer peripheral side of the convex portion, toward the through hole on an inner peripheral side. The drain hole is outside the convex portion, vertically penetrating the lower partition wall. The separated oil circles a top surface of the lower partition wall. The oil flowing to an inner peripheral side of the lower partition wall is guided to the groove and flows into the through hole. The oil flowing to an outer peripheral side of the lower partition wall flows into the drain hole.
