It has a container that rotates in accordance with the application of the rotation force; A partition wall disposed in the accommodation part and partitioning the accommodation part into a radially inner space and an outer space, the partition having a gap spaced apart from the bottom surface of the container by a predetermined distance to move the tissue between the inner space and the outer space; And a pipe portion disposed in the inner space and configured to access the tissue. Including;
상기 용기의 바닥면 중심부에는 상기 조직이 적치되는 함몰부가 형성되며, 상기 격벽에는 상기 간극을 통해 이동하는 조직의 분할이 이루어지도록 하는 복수의 절단부가 구비되고, 상기 복수의 절단부는 상기 격벽의 둘레방향을 따라 소정의 간격을 갖고 이격되게 배치되는 원심 분리기용 바울 및 그를 포함한 원심 분리기에 관한 것이다.The bottom center of the container is provided with a depression in which the tissue is deposited, the partition is provided with a plurality of cuts for partitioning the tissue moving through the gap, the plurality of cuts are the circumferential direction of the partition The present invention relates to a centrifuge and a centrifuge including the same, which are arranged at a predetermined interval apart from each other.
지방 조직과 같은 소정의 조직으로부터 특정 세포, 또는 물질 등을 분리하기 위하여 원심 분리기가 사용되고 있다. 이러한 원심 분리기는 원심력을 사용하여 조직 내의 세포, 또는 물질 등을 분리하는 장치로서 그 구성 및 작동이 비교적 간단하고 용이한 분리를 제공하여 광범위하게 사용되어 왔다. Centrifuges are used to separate specific cells, substances, and the like from certain tissues, such as adipose tissue. The centrifuge has been widely used as a device for separating cells, substances, and the like in a tissue using centrifugal force, providing a relatively simple and easy separation thereof.
상기와 같은 원심 분리기에는 소정의 조직을 수용하고 회전가능하게 구성되어 원심 분리를 수행할 수 있는 소정의 바울(bowl)이 사용된다. 이러한 바울은 통상 회전이 용이하도록 원통형으로 구성됨이 보통이다.In the centrifuge as described above, a predetermined bowl is used to receive a predetermined tissue and to be rotatable to perform centrifugation. Such Paul is usually constructed in a cylindrical shape to facilitate rotation.
원심 분리를 위해 바울을 회전시키고, 원심 분리 후 추출된 조직 내의 각종 물질을 분리하여 원심 분리기용 바울로부터 추출할 때, 원심 분리 과정에서 분리된 각종 물질이 덩어리로 뭉쳐 추출이 어려워지는 경우가 종종 발생한다.When rotating the Paul for centrifugation, separating various substances in the extracted tissue after centrifugation, and extracting them from the centrifuge Paul, it is often difficult to extract the various substances separated into agglomerates during centrifugation. do.
일 예로, 지방 조직으로부터 세포를 추출하기 위하여, 지방 조직을 소정의 용기에 수용한 상태로 세척하거나 효소를 이용하여 지방 조직을 분리하는 경우, 지방 조직으로부터 콜라겐과 같은 소정의 물질이 분리되며, 이러한 물질이 뭉쳐서 용기 내에 잔류하여 분리된 물질의 추출 및 주입을 위한 출입관을 막아 장치의 손상 및 오작동을 일으키는 경우가 발생하는 경우가 있다.For example, in order to extract cells from the adipose tissue, when the adipose tissue is washed in a predetermined container or the adipose tissue is separated using an enzyme, a predetermined substance such as collagen is separated from the adipose tissue.

In addition, as the wall portion (not shown) is formed between the injection tube 410 and the extraction tube 420, it is possible to prevent the tissue from leaving the other tube during the injection and extraction of the tissue.
한편, 상기 출입부(400)의 하부에는 상기 관부(300)와의 연결을 달성하고 수용부(110) 내부의 기밀을 달성할 수 있는 소정의 실 부재가 구비될 수 있으며, 이에 한정하지 아니한다.On the other hand, the lower portion of the access unit 400 may be provided with a predetermined seal member that can achieve a connection with the pipe portion 300 and achieve the airtight inside the receiving portion 110, but is not limited thereto.
이하에서는, 본 발명의 원심 분리기용 바울(1)의 구체적인 구성 및 그에 따른 작동에 대해 기술한다.In the following, the specific configuration of the centrifuge Paul 1 of the present invention and its operation will be described.
상술한 바와 같이, 상기 관부(300)를 통해 조직이 주입된 후, 상기 용기(100)를 회전시키면 상기 조직은 원심력을 받아 외측 방향으로 밀리게 된다. 이때, 상술한 바와 같이 상기 용기(100)의 바닥면과 상기 격벽(200)의 하부는 서로 이격되어 간극이 형성되므로, 상기 용기(100) 내에 수용된 조직 및 각종 물질 등은 상기 간극을 통해 빠져나가게 되며, 상기 격벽(200)을 통해 구분된 외공간(130)으로 몰리게 된다. 이때, 상기 조직 및 각종 물질 등은 회전에 따라서 외공간(130)의 상부로 몰리게 되며 중량 등과 같은 각종 특질적 요소에 따라서 서로 분리되어 뭉치게 된다. 한편, 원심 분리가 끝나서 용기(100)의 회전이 정지하면 상기 외공간(130)으로 몰린 조직은 낙하하여 상기 용기(100)의 바닥면의 함몰부(140)에 쌓이게 되며, 이때 주로 큰 중량을 갖는 조직이 먼저 쌓여 조직 내 각종 물질의 분리가 이루어질 수 있다.As described above, after the tissue is injected through the pipe part 300, when the container 100 is rotated, the tissue is pushed outward under centrifugal force. In this case, as described above, since the bottom surface of the container 100 and the lower portion of the partition wall 200 are spaced apart from each other to form a gap, the tissue and various substances contained in the container 100 may escape through the gap. It is driven to the outer space 130 divided through the partition wall 200. At this time, the tissue and various materials, etc. are driven to the upper portion of the outer space 130 according to the rotation and are separated from each other according to various characteristic elements such as weight and the like. On the other hand, when the rotation of the vessel 100 stops after the centrifugal separation, the tissue driven into the outer space 130 falls and accumulates in the recessed portion 140 of the bottom surface of the vessel 100. The tissues having the first stacked can be separated from the various substances in the tissue.
한편, 상술한 바와 같이, 상기 격벽(200)의 하부에는 상기 간극을 통해 이동하는 조직의 분할이 이루어지도록 하는 복수의 절단부(220)가 구비된다. 이때, 상기 복수의 절단부(220)는 상기 격벽(200)의 둘레방향을 따라 소정의 간격을 갖고 이격되게 배치되는 구성을 가질 수 있으며, 이에 따라서 조직의 분할이 이루어질 수 있다.On the other hand, as described above, the lower portion of the partition wall 200 is provided with a plurality of cutting parts 220 to be divided into the tissue moving through the gap. In this case, the plurality of cutouts 220 may have a configuration in which the plurality of cutouts 220 are spaced apart at predetermined intervals along the circumferential direction of the partition wall 200.
즉, 상기와 같이 원심 분리 과정에서 상기 조직은 상기 간극을 통해 내공간(120)과 외공간(130) 사이를 이동하므로, 상기 격벽(200)의 하부에 구비된 복수의 절단부(220)를 지나게 된다. 상기 절단부(220)를 통과함에 따라서 조직의 절단 및 분할이 이루어질 수 있으며, 이에 따라서 조직이 크게 뭉쳐 덩어리를 이루는 것이 방지되고 관부(300)를 통해 조직을 추출하는 것이 용이하게 이루어질 수 있다. That is, in the centrifugal separation process as described above, the tissue moves between the inner space 120 and the outer space 130 through the gap, and thus passes through the plurality of cutouts 220 provided in the lower portion of the partition wall 200. do. As the cutting part 220 passes, cutting and dividing of the tissue may be performed. Accordingly, the tissue may be largely aggregated to prevent agglomeration and the tissue may be easily extracted through the pipe part 300.
예컨대 지방 조직으로부터 세포를 추출하기 위하여 지방 조직을 용기(100)에 수용한 상태로 세척하거나 효소를 이용하여 분리할 경우, 지방 조직으로부터 콜라겐이 분리되어 용기(100) 내에서 덩어리로 뭉치는 현상이 발생할 수 있다. 이에 따라서, 이러한 덩어리로 뭉친 콜라겐은 상기 관부(300)를 막음으로써 원심 분리기용 바울의 작동에 큰 저해 요인으로 작용할 수 있다.For example, in order to extract cells from adipose tissue, when the adipose tissue is washed in a container 100 or separated using an enzyme, collagen is separated from the adipose tissue and agglomerated into agglomerates in the container 100. May occur. Accordingly, the aggregated collagen may act as a large inhibitory factor in the operation of the centrifuge Paul by blocking the pipe part 300.
그러나, 본 발명에 따른 원심 분리기용 바울(1)은 상기와 같은 절단부(220)를 가짐에 따라서 상기와 같이 뭉침 현상이 방지되고 따라서 이러한 덩어리 형성이 방지되어 관부(300)의 폐쇄가 방지될 수 있다.However, the centrifugal separator 1 according to the present invention has the cut portion 220 as described above, the aggregation phenomenon is prevented as described above, and thus the formation of such agglomeration can be prevented, thereby preventing the closing of the pipe part 300. have.
뿐만 아니라, 상기 조직이 분할되어 작은 부피를 가져 표면적이 넓어짐에 따라서 소정의 효소 등을 사용하여 분리 및 각종 반응을 일으키고자 할 경우 넓어진 표면적으로 인해 반응 효율이 향상되고 반응 시간이 단축되어 더욱 유리한 원심 분리를 달성할 수 있다.In addition, as the tissue is divided and has a small volume, and the surface area is widened, when the separation and various reactions are to be performed by using a predetermined enzyme or the like, the enlarged surface area improves the reaction efficiency and shortens the reaction time. Separation can be achieved.
아울러, 이러한 구성을 갖는 원심 분리기용 바울(1)을 사용한 원심 분리기의 경우, 상술한 바와 같이 원심 분리기용 바울(1)의 작동 효율이 증대됨에 따라서 원심 분리기 전체의 작동 효율 및 그에 따른 원심 분리 효율이 개선될 수 있다. 한편, 본 발명에 따른 원심 분리기용 바울(1)을 포함한 원심 분리기는 상기 원심 분리기용 바울(1) 외에 소정의 모터와 같은 구동 장치, 및 조직 공급 장치 등을 포함할 수 있다.In addition, in the case of the centrifuge using the centrifuge Paul (1) having such a configuration, as the operation efficiency of the centrifuge Paul (1) as described above is increased, the operating efficiency of the entire centrifuge and thus the centrifugal efficiency This can be improved. Meanwhile, the centrifuge including the centrifuge Paul 1 according to the present invention may include a drive device such as a predetermined motor, a tissue supply device, etc., in addition to the centrifuge Paul 1.

즉, 상기 각각의 절단부(220)는, 상기 격벽(200)에 연결되며 직경방향 외측 방향으로 연장되는 소정의 막대, 또는 빔과 같은 구성을 가질 수 있다. 이에 따라서, 복수의 절단부(220)는 상기 격벽(200)의 중심을 중심으로 하여 방사형 구조를 가질 수 있으며, 그 개수 및 이격 거리는 한정하지 아니한다. 일 예로, 도 10 에 도시된 바와 같이 비교적 빽빽하게 배치된 다수의 절단부(220)가 구비되는 것도 가능하며, 이에 한정하지 아니한다.That is, each cut portion 220 may have a configuration such as a predetermined bar or beam connected to the partition wall 200 and extending in the radially outward direction. Accordingly, the plurality of cutouts 220 may have a radial structure centered on the center of the partition wall 200, and the number and separation distance thereof are not limited.

Position fixation or position limitation may be made. As described above, as the cut portion 220 has a symmetrical arrangement and a configuration in which the cut portion 220 is in contact with and supported by at least one of the inner surface and the bottom surface, proper positioning or limiting of the partition wall 200 is achieved and in the centrifugal separation process.
