Abstract
Abstract A preparation-making ultracentrifuge is disclosed comprising a magnetic suspension and an electric motor, which are disposed within its casing, said magnetic suspension consisting of a permanent magnet with a magnetic circuit, the armature of said electric motor being made in the form of a sleeve fixedly secured to the centrifuge rotor is disclosed. Such construction of a preparation-making ultracentrifuge enables the rotor to be accelerated to the required speed within a comparatively short time period and allows a reduction in the weight of the electric motor armature.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
102 words
A preparation-making ultra centrifuge comprising: an evacuated housing which contains a vertically installed rotor; a temperature-regulating shell which surrounds said rotor, said rotor being adapted for accommodation of vessels containing preparation; a magnetic suspension disposed within said evacuated housing above and coaxially with said rotor; a drive of said rotor disposed under and coaxially therewith; a support of said rotor disposed under and coaxially therewith; said drive including an electric motor with an armature thereof being made in the form of a sleeve fixedly secured to said rotor and wherein said magnetic suspension includes an annular permanent magnet with a magnetic support.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
102 words
A preparation-making ultra centrifuge comprising: an evacuated housing which contains a vertically installed rotor; a temperature-regulating shell which surrounds said rotor, said rotor being adapted for accommodation of vessels containing preparation; a magnetic suspension disposed within said evacuated housing above and coaxially with said rotor; a drive of said rotor disposed under and coaxially therewith; a support of said rotor disposed under and coaxially therewith; said drive including an electric motor with an armature thereof being made in the form of a sleeve fixedly secured to said rotor and wherein said magnetic suspension includes an annular permanent magnet with a magnetic support.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
51 words
The preparation-making ultracentrifuge as claimed in claim 1, wherein the armature of the electric motor is formed by two sleeves inserted into each other, one of which is made from a ferro-magnetic material and the other from a non-magnetic electrically conductive material having a specific strength of not less than 13Km.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
32 words
The preparation-making ultracentrifuge as claimed in claim 1, wherein a stator of the electric motor is disposed within the evacuated housing of the ultracentrifuge and is fixedly secured to the temperature-regulating shell.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
27 words
The preparation-making ultracentrifuge as claimed in claim 3, wherein a heat insulator is interposed between and fixedly secured to the electric motor armature and the ultracentrifuge motor.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
67 words
The preparation-making ultracentrifuge as claimed in claim 1 wherein the magnetic support of the magnetic suspension includes a bushing disposed concentrically with the magnet, with a support member adjoining the bushing perpendicularly to its axis so that a gap is provided between said bushing and said magnet, the size of the gap and the bushing length being dependent on the required lifting pull of the magnetic suspension.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
80 words
The preparation-making ultracentrifuge as claimed in claim 1, wherein the rotor has a plurality of blades disposed equidistantly along the circumference of the rotor and fixedly secured thereto, with a slot disposed in each blade along the radius of said rotor for accommodation of a cylindrical vessel containing preparation, said vessel mounted with axles in said slot so that said vessel can turn on the axles, said axles fixedly secured in the rotor perpendicularly to the axis of said vessel.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
45 words
The preparation-making ultracentrifuge as claimed in claim 6, wherein each of the rotor blades is made from an anisotropic material which has a maximum strength in the direction of the radius of the rotor and is fixedly secured to the central part of said rotor.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
24 words
The preparation centrifuge as claimed in claim 7 wherein the vessel for preparation has walls, the thickness of which uniformly increases towards its bottom.
