Abstract

The invention refers to a device for supporting and carrying, e.g. a centrifugal rotor. For making possible an adjustment of the rotor thus that any possible unbalance is eliminated as far as possible, the rotor is supported upon a supporting element, on which it is radially displaceable. Between the rotor and the supporting element is provided a bearing part. This is rotatable and displaceable laterally on the supporting element and carries the rotor with means, which incorporate deformable members, which allow a tilting of the rotor upon the bearing part.
