Abstract
The present invention relates to a drive head for detachable connection of a drive with a rotor of a centrifuge, comprising: a base body which is rotatable about an axis of rotation (R) and at least one coupling element, which is mounted on the base body such that it is movable between a release position (F) and a locking position (V), the coupling element protruding further beyond the outer circumference of the base body in the locking position (V) than in the release position (F). The coupling element is arranged so as to be linearly movable between the release position (F) and the locking position (V) in such a way that a plane (E), along which the coupling element is movable, is inclined relative to a sectional plane (S) extending perpendicularly to the axis of rotation (R), the coupling element having a resting surface in its outer end region, which runs parallel to the sectional plane (S). The present invention further relates to a kit comprising the drive head and to a centrifuge comprising the drive head or the kit.
