Abstract
A swinging bucket centrifuge rotor comprises a body that has a reference plane that extends generally perpendicular to a vertically extending axis of rotation. The body has at least one pair of confronting planar sidewalls each of which has a trunnion pin mounted thereon. Each trunnion pin has an axis therethrough that extends generally perpendicularly to the planar sidewall on which the pin is mounted. Each sidewall further has a generally cylindrical swinging bucket support surface thereon. Each cylindrical support surface has an axis of generation that lies in the reference plane in parallel relationship to the axis of the trunnion pin. Thus, a portion of each cylindrical support surface lies above and below the reference plane.
