Patent ID: 10722881

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a centrifugation device, a centrifugation method, and a separation container. More particularly, the present invention relates to a centrifugation device for separating substances from a body fluid and tissue using centrifugal force, the centrifugation device including: a separation container configured to receive, centrifuge, and clean a body fluid and tissue therein and rotate around a central rotation axis; a supply part connected to the separation container and configured to supply a cleaning solution to the separation container; a discharge part connected to the separation container and configured to receive substances separated by centrifugation; valves configured to control flows between the supply part, the discharge part, and the separation container; a driving device configured to rotate the separation container, the supply part, and the discharge part around the central rotation axis, the driving device being installed in a direction perpendicular to the separation container, the supply part, and the discharge part; and a controller configured to control an operation of the driving unit, wherein the separation container includes: a piston located outside in a radial direction based on the central rotation axis; and an elastic part placed on an outer side of the piston in the radial direction to push the piston in a direction opposite a centrifugal force direction.
