Abstract

Centrifuge (1) comprising a sample container (30) which includes a rotating shaft (40, 40', 40", 40"') for pivoting, and a swiveling rotor (20) which includes a through-bore (21) extending axially from a top to a bottom, a pair of supporting components (22) which rotatably support two ends of the rotating shaft (40, 40', 40", 40"') of the sample container (30) which is mounted in the through-bore (21), and a cut-out component (24) which is formed on a radial outer surface in a direction which is perpendicular to a central axis of the through-bore (21), and pivoting the sample container (30) with the rotating shaft (40, 40', 40", 40"') mounted on the supporting components (22) by rotating the rotor (20) to perform the Centrifugation in a state in which the sample container (30) is seated on the cut-out component (24), with the rotating shaft (40, 40', 40",40"') comprises a plurality of elements which are connected to each other by a connecting component (43, 43', 43", 43'"), and is flexible at the connecting component (43, 43', 43", 43'") by a centrifugal load which is accompanied by the rotation of the rotor (20).
