ABSTRACT:
A centrifuge construction is disclosed in which a centrally located stator directly drives a peripheral ring shaped centrifuge rotor. In the preferred embodiment, a centrifuge drive is disclosed which includes a stationary, central and usually cylindrical stator having stationary electrical windings for generating a rotating and driving magnetic field. The ring shaped centrifuge rotor is supported by at least one bearing relative to the stator and includes a large central aperture defined by the inside of the ring which enables the rotor to fit over and rotate about the stator. At portions of the rotor adjoining the stator, the rotor is constructed from materials which are entrained by the rotating magnetic field. The centrifuge rotor containing samples undergoing centrifugation is directly driven from the stator by entrainment of the rotor with the rotating and driving magnetic field generated from the electrical windings of the stator. In the usual case, this large central aperture in the rotor requires the use of composite materials in the rotor to resist radial centrifugal forces generated during centrifugation with hoop stress resistance from wound composite material fibers.
