Abstract
A bucket, for use on a swing-type rotor in a centrifugal separator, shaped to receive specimen holders of several different configurations. The bucket has a pair of diametrically opposite side walls having central portions displaced radially outwardly as first and second arcuate wall portions extending around a central axis of the bucket and another pair of diametrically opposite side walls having upper portions displaced radially outwardly as inverted U-shaped bearings for allowing the bucket to be suspended on the rotor. The other side walls are spaced from each other by a distance equal to or greater than the diameter of the arcuate wall portions.
