Patent ID: 7144361

Claim:
A continuous flow type centrifuge comprising: a main housing; a rotor rotatably supported by the main housing and having a rotation axis, the rotor comprising a cylindrical rotor body; a hollow cylindrical core body disposed in the rotor body providing a space therebetween, the core body having a first open end, a second open end and an outer peripheral surface provided with a plurality of partitioning walls positioned at an equal interval in a circumferential direction of the core body for providing a plurality of cavities each defined by the core body, the rotor body and neighboring partitioning walls; end plates comprising a first end plate disposed to cover the first open end, and a second end plate disposed to cover the second open end; and welding parts comprising a first welding part disposed at a boundary between the first end plate and the first open end to cover gaps between the first end plate and the first open end, and a second welding part disposed at a boundary between the second end plate and the second open end to cover gaps between the second end plate and the second open end; and a drive motor coupled to the rotor for rotating the rotor about the rotation axis.
