Definitions
- the present invention relates to a centrifuge according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Centrifuge rotors are used in centrifuges, especially laboratory centrifuges, to separate the components of samples centrifuged therein, utilizing inertia. In this case, ever higher rotational speeds are used to achieve high Entmischungsra.
- Laboratory centrifuges are centrifuges whose rotors operate at preferably at least 3,000, preferably at least 10,000, in particular at least 15,000 revolutions per minute and are usually placed on tables. In order to be able to place them on a work table, they have, in particular, a form factor of less than 1 m ⁇ 1 m ⁇ 1 m, so their installation space is limited.
- the depth of the device is limited to max. 70 cm.
- centrifuges are used in the fields of medicine, pharmacy, biology and chemistry. Like.
- the samples to be centrifuged are stored in sample containers and these sample containers are rotationally driven by means of a centrifuge rotor.
- the centrifuge rotors are usually rotated by means of a vertical drive shaft, which is driven by an electric motor in rotation.
- the sample containers can contain the samples directly or in the sample containers own sample containers are used, which contain the sample, so that in a sample container, a plurality of samples can be centrifuged simultaneously.
- Very generally centrifuge rotors in the form of Festwinkelro gates and swing-bucket rotors are known. In most cases it is provided that the samples are centrifuged at certain temperatures.
- samples containing egg whites and the like may not be overheated so that the upper limit for tempering such samples is in the range of + 40 ° C by default.
- certain samples are by default cooled to + 4 ° C (the anomaly of the water starts at 3.98 ° C).
- predetermined maximum temperatures of, for example, about + 40 ° C and standard examination temperatures such as + 4 ° C and other standard examination temperatures are provided, such as at + 11 ° C to check at this temperature, whether the refrigeration system of the centrifuge runs controlled below room temperature .
- predetermined maximum temperatures for example, about + 40 ° C and standard examination temperatures such as + 4 ° C and other standard examination temperatures are provided, such as at + 11 ° C to check at this temperature, whether the refrigeration system of the centrifuge runs controlled below room temperature .
- active and passive systems can be used for tempering.
- Passive systems are based on air-assisted ventilation. This air is passed directly past the centrifuge rotor, whereby a temperature control takes place. The air is sucked through openings in the centrifuge tank and through further openings, the heated air is discharged again at another point of the centrifuge genkessels, wherein the suction and removal takes place automatically by the rotation of the centrifuge rotor.
- active cooling systems have a refrigerant circuit which tempers the centrifuge container, thereby indirectly cooling the centrifuge rotor and the sample containers received therein.
- cold or Tempera tion mediums many different media are used. Since in principle not only cooling, so heat reductions, but also heat increases targeted during centrifugation may be desired, is spoken within the present invention of temperature control and Temper michsmedien.
- temperature control media commonly used for centrifuges, such as chlorine difluoromethane, tetrafluoroethane, pentafluoroethane or difluoromethane and many others, there are also flammable temperature control agents, such as butane or propane or a variety of synthetic mixtures.
- Ignition of the temperature control can be done.
- crash fragments of the centrifuge rotor can act at high speed and thus very high energy within the centrifuge and thereby destroy the United steamer and lines that lead the temperature control.
- the effluent combustible temperature control medium can then be easily ignited by the energy released during the crash and by electrical or electronic components inside the centrifuge or in its environment, which can be very great damage, especially personal injury may be connected.
- this object can be achieved in a surprising manner in a particularly simple manner if, in the event of a crash of the centrifuge rotor, a protective gas is released so that the oxygen-tempering medium mixture is not ignitable. More specifically, the released inert gas forms a flow which displaces the oxygen, distributes the leaking temperature control medium and fundamentally changes the instantaneous ratio of the concentration of oxygen to tempering medium so that ignition can not take place both inside and outside the centrifuge.
- the centrifuge according to the invention in particular laboratory centrifuge, therefore, has a centrifuge container in which a centrifuge rotor is receivable, a motor for driving the centrifuge rotor, temperature control means for tempering the Zentrifu genrotors and a housing in which received the centrifuge container, the centrifuge rotor, the temperature control means and the motor are, wherein the Tempe r michsstoff have a combustible tempering medium, which is guided in a Temper michsmedientechnisch, and are characterized in that the centrifuge has a protective gas and is adapted to release the protective gas in the event of a crash of the centrifuge rotor.
- the protective gas is an inert gas, which preferably comprises at least one gas from the group argon, helium, carbon dioxide, krypton, neon, nitrogen and xenon. Such gases are particularly effective protective gases.
- the protective gas is guided in a protective gas line which extends at least one, preferably with several turns around the centrifuge container. Then the shielding gas is passed as possible to the centrifuge container, so that in the centrifuge container Centrifuge rotor located in the event of a crash always directly the protective gas line destroyed and thus releases the inert gas automatically.
- the protective gas line is connected to a protective gas source, which preferably contains the protective gas under an overpressure.
- a protective gas source which preferably contains the protective gas under an overpressure.
- inert gas line and inert gas source in particular fixed throttle element is angeord net.
- At least two sections preferably more, in particular each winding of the protective line, are connected in parallel with the protective gas source.
- the protective gas can be released in sufficient quantity, regardless of which part of the protective gas line is opened by the crash.
- the protective gas line is arranged at least in regions with respect to the centrifuge container next to and / or below the Temper michsmedientechnisch. Then always the protective gas line is opened first or at least simultaneously with the Temper michsmedientechnisch.
- the inert gas line forms an additional crash absorber, so that possibly opening of the Temper michsmedientechnisch can be prevented.
- the protective gas line and the Temper istsmedien admirably, preferably at least over a quarter, most preferably at least over a third, in particular at least over half of their respective winding length externally verbun together, preferably are soldered. This favors a particularly good one
- solder joint is preferably less resistant to tearing than the Temper michsmedientechnisch, it is ensured that the Schutzgaslei device is opened rather than the Temper michsmedientechnisch.
- the protective gas line at least partially has a smaller wall thickness than the Tempera tion medium line. This ensures that the protective gas is released primarily in front of the temperature control medium.
- the protective gas line and / or the Temper michsmedien are arranged directly on the centrifuge container or at least partially, at least part of the wall of the centrifuge container.
- the heat transfer is also particularly effective and the space can possibly be kept smaller.
- a multi-channel system is to the effect that a channel for the inert gas and a channel for the Tempe r michsmedium exist.
- the heat transfer is also particularly effective and the space can possibly be kept smaller.
- monitoring means exist with regard to the state of the protective gas, preferably the pressure and / or the protective gas quantity, which are adapted to the rotational speed of the respectively used
- the state of the protective gas preferably the pressure and / or the protective gas quantity, which are adapted to the rotational speed of the respectively used
- the centrifuge which is designed in particular as a laboratory centrifuge, a centrifuge container in which a centrifuge rotor is receivable, a motor for driving the Centrifugal rotor, tempering means for tempering the centrifuge rotor and a housing in which the centrifuge container, the centrifuge rotor, the temperature control means and the motor are accommodated, wherein the temperature control means comprise a combustible tempering medium, which is guided in a Temper michsmedientechnisch, and thereby characterized that protective gas is released in the event of a crash of Zentri fugerotors.
- the centrifuge invention is verwen det.
- FIG. 1 shows the centrifuge according to the invention in a perspective view
- FIG. 3 shows the centrifuge according to the invention according to Figure 1 in a second partial sectional view from the left and
- FIG. 4 shows a detail view of Fig.2.
- FIGS. 1 to 4 the centrifuge 10 according to the invention is shown purely schematically in different views.
- the centrifuge 10 is designed as a laboratory centrifuge, which has a housing 12 with a cover 14 and an operating front 15.
- a centrifuge rotor 20 is arranged, which is designed as a swing rotor with centrifuge cups 22.
- the two ends 28, 30 of the protective gas line 26 are brought together and thereby connected in parallel with the supply line 32 of a protective gas container 34 containing a large amount (for example, 1000 g) of carbon dioxide as a protective gas under pressure, for example, liquefied.
- a protective gas container 34 containing a large amount (for example, 1000 g) of carbon dioxide as a protective gas under pressure, for example, liquefied.
- the individual windings 36 are connected to one another by a transverse connection (not shown).
- a pressure switch 38 is arranged, which is connected via a plug 40 with the controller (not shown) of the centrifuge 10.
- the Temperianssmedientechnisch 24 is connected in a conventional manner with a compressor 42 (behind the vents 43 of the housing 12) and with a filter drier 44.
- the centrifuge 10 has, in addition to a base plate 46, a protective sleeve 48 which is intended to prevent its parts from escaping from the centrifuge 10 in the event of a crash of the centrifuge rotor 20 '.
- This protective cover 48 is thus dimensioned and designed in such a way that sufficient crash energy can be absorbed.
- a thermal insulation 49 is arranged between the protective sleeve 48 and the centrifuge container 16.
- the windings of the Temperianssmedientechnisch 24, especially the winding parts 50, 52 form the evaporator.
- the winding member 50 is located on the Wick ment 36 of the protective gas line 26 and the winding member 52 is disposed adjacent to the winding 36 of the protective gas 26.
- the jacket surfaces of the windings 36 of the protective gas line 26 are externally connected to the overlying winding parts 50 of the Temper michsmedientechnisch 24 by a solder joint 54 (see Fig.4) and the protective gas 26 and arranged next to the protective gas 26 windings 52 of the Temperie tion medium line 24 are with the Zentrifugen effecter 16 selectively soldered (not shown), whereby the Temper michsmedientechnisch 24 in all areas of their windings 50, 52 has sufficient heat conduction to the centrifuge container 16 out and thereby a sufficient active indirect temperature control of the centrifuge rotor 20 'and the samples received therein (not shown) disturbge is.
- the solder joint is in its strength formed so that the connection to the Temper michsmedientechnisch 24 tears in the region of the winding parts 50 before the Temper michsmedientechnisch 24 tears itself here.
- Temper michsmedientechnisch 24 and inert gas 26 pipes in the form of elongated hollow body made of any material, preferably of copper or aluminum, used, the length of which is usually much larger than the diameter of its cross section.
- the protective gas line 26 and the Tempera tion medium line 24 have a different diameter and / or different Liche wall thicknesses. By a smaller wall thickness ensures that the protective gas line 26 ruptures rather than the Temper michsmedientechnisch 24. By a smaller diameter, the protective gas line 26 could be arranged in the free space between the centrifuge container 16 and the turns 50 of the Temperie approximately medium line 24.
- windings 36, 50 of shielding gas conduit 26 and tempering medium line 24 could also run side by side in parallel, for example as a multi-channel solution (not shown), such that the temperature control media conduit 24 would be located directly on the centrifuge vessel 16.
- Temperianssmedientechnisch 24 and / or the inert gas 26 at least partially form the centrifuge container 16 (not shown), whereby the necessary space could be reduced.
- this embodiment of the centrifuge 10 effectively prevents ignition of the combustible tempering medium even in the event of a crash of the centrifuge rotor 20, since in the event of such a crash, components of the centrifuge rotor 20 will damage the protective gas conduit 26 after the centrifuge container 16 has blown through, causing the protective gas to escape ,
- the protective gas Since the protective gas is under pressure, it will flow into the entire interior of the centrifuge 10 and displace there the atmospheric oxygen and also the possibly diluting tempering agents. Due to the generated flow from the centrifuge 10, the exiting mixture is additionally swirled in the ambient air and further diluted. This prevents the formation of an ignitable mixture.
- the pressure monitor 38 which continuously monitors the amount and / or pressure of the protective gas in the protective gas container 34 during operation of the centrifuge 10. If the pressure switch 38 detects a state of the shielding gas, which is below predetermined and adapted to the specific centrifuge 10 values, he intervenes in the control (not shown) of the centrifuge 10, either that the centrifuge 10 is not the genrotor genzucroter 20th , 20 'starts and possibly outputs an error message or that the Zentrifu genrotor 20, 20' can only be operated up to a non-critical maximum speed at which a crash can not release any energy that damages the Temper Wegsmedien Koch 24. This maximum speed is previously determined in test series.
- the Ausströmzeit is specifically adapted so that the surrounding ambient air and thus the atmospheric oxygen displaced for a longer period of time and exiting Temper michsmedium is mixed with the leaking protective gas and scattered.
- a centrifuge 10 is provided, with which also combustible tempering can be used within the scope of a temperature without security concerns. Unless otherwise indicated, all features of the present invention may be freely combined. The features described in the description of the figures can, unless stated otherwise, be freely combined with the other features as features of the invention. Objective features of the centrifuge can also be used as part of a process to formulated to process features use and reformulated process characteristics in the context of the centrifuge to characteristics of the centrifuge.
