<p>A swing bucket 12 is provided for use with a centrifuge rotor (10, fig 1). The bucket 12 includes a bucket body 70 that has a side wall 72 and a bottom wall 74. A pair of projections 80 extend from the side wall 72 on opposing sides of the bucket body 70 and are configured for engagement with the centrifuge rotor (10, fig 1). The bucket 12 also includes reinforcing material 102 coupled to the projections 80 and extend across the bottom wall 74 for restricting movement of the bucket body 70 relative to the projections (80) during centrifugation on the centrifuge rotor (10, fig 1). The projections 80 may include bushings that extend outwardly from the side wall 72 for engaging corresponding pins 92 on the centrifuge rotor (10, fig 1). The projections 80 may alternatively or additionally include pins for engaging corresponding journals on the centrifuge rotor (10, fig 1). The bucket body 70 may include a pair of diametrically opposed apertures 90, with each of the projections 80 extending through one of the apertures 90. The reinforcing material 102 and the bucket 12 may be made from carbon fibre.</p> |
