Abstract
A magnetic separation device, comprising: a separator, including a top base and a bottom base; at least a groove set, each composed of two arc-like grooves having curvatures opposite to each other; at least a magnetic member, being movably fitted inside the two arc-like grooves of the at least one groove set; and at least a test tube slot, each being formed at the outer rim of a base selected from the group consisting of the top and the bottom base of the separator; wherein the top and the bottom bases are assembled by means of a pivotal axis piecing through about at the center of the top and the bottom bases for enabling the two bases to rotate relative to each other; and one of the two arc-like groove is formed on the top base at a surface thereof facing toward the bottom base while forming another arc-like groove on the bottom base at a surface thereof facing toward the top base. With the aforesaid device, the magnetic member can be driven to slide inside the groove set while the top and the bottom bases are driven to rotate relative to each other, thereby, the magnetic member can be moved between two positions whereas one is near the test tube slot and the other is away from the same.
