Abstract
A separation device includes: a container that includes a storage portion for storing liquid containing magnetic particles; and a coil that separates the magnetic particles from the liquid by generating a magnetic field through application of current, causing a magnetic force to act on the magnetic particles in a state where the coil stops with respect to the storage portion, and causing the magnetic particles to move from the storage portion against gravity acting on the liquid containing the magnetic particles.
Claims11
A separation device comprising:
- a container that includes a storage portion for storing liquid containing magnetic particles;
- a coil that separates the magnetic particles from the liquid by generating a magnetic field through application of current;
- causing a magnetic force to act on the magnetic particles in a state where the coil does not move relative to the storage portion, and causing the magnetic particles to move from the storage portion against gravity acting on the liquid containing the magnetic particles;
- and
- a slope that has an upward inclination from the storage portion,
- wherein the coil surrounds a periphery of the slope from an outer side and separates the magnetic particles from the liquid by causing the magnetic particles to move obliquely upward along the slope.
