CA 2277858
An apparatus is adapted to centrifuge and furthermore automatically handle a container (10) for separating a component, such as fibrin monomer, from plasma. The container (10) comprises a cylindrical member (11) and a piston (25) displaceable therein and comprising a tubular piston rod (12), which extends through the top wall. The piston (25) divides the cylindrical member (11) into a first chamber positioned above said piston (25) between said piston and said top wall and a second chamber positioned below said piston (25). The apparatus comprises a supporting turntable (1) with means for releasably retaining the cylindrical member (11), said supporting turntable being connected to a first activating means (5) for rotating the supporting turntable (1) with the container (10) about the central axis thereof. The apparatus comprises furthermore a rotatably journalled piston activating mechanism (13, 15, 16) adapted to activate the piston by means of a second activating means (21). A heat-emitting device (26, 27) is provided opposite the position of the cylindrical member (11) in the apparatus.
Appareil centrifugeur et manipulateur automatique de récipient (10) pour séparer du plasma un constituant comme le monomère de fibrine. Le récipient (10) a une partie cylindrique (11) et un piston (25) se déplaçant dans cette partie, qui comprend une tige de piston tubulaire (12), laquelle s'étend à travers la paroi supérieure. Le piston (25) divise la partie cylindrique (11) en un premier compartiment au-dessus du piston (25), entre ledit piston et la paroi supérieure, et un second compartiment au-dessous du piston (25). L'appareil comprend un plateau support rotatif (1) ayant un système de retenue libérable pour la partie cylindrique (11), ce plateau étant relié à un premier dispositif d'activation (5) pour la rotation du plateau support rotatif (1), le récipient (10) tournant autour de l'axe central du plateau. L'appareil comporte en outre un mécanisme d'activation du piston à tourillon rotatif (13, 15, 16), conçu pour activer le piston au moyen d'un second dispositif d'activation (21). Un dispositif émetteur de chaleur (26, 27) est en position opposée à celle de la partie cylindrique (11) dans l'appareil.
