Abstract
A laboratory centrifuge includes a continuous metal plate comprising an underbody base plate having a rotor drive motor mounted thereon, an angled front screen which contains operating devices and display instruments, and a bending region which extends between the base plate and the front screen. At least two reciprocally parallel rows of decoupling slots are arranged between the bending region of the metal plate and the base plate. The decoupling slots form a meandering bar connection between the front screen and the base plate, by which noise generated due to imbalance at the rotor or structural noise in the direction of the front plate is considerably reduced. A conventional table centrifuge housing having a hinged lid and rotor bowl is fitted on the underbody.
