Centrifuge

A centrifuge 100, comprising:

• a centrifuging compartment comprising a housing having a top surface that forms at least one inlet;
• a supporting assembly adjacent to the housing, comprising:
• a supporting portion positioned beside the housing;
• and
• a base plate mounted on the supporting portion and located above the housing,
• a rotation mechanism rotatably mounted on the top surface of the housing and the base plate;
• a feeding frame positioned in the housing and coupling to the rotation mechanism, comprising a loading portion, and defining a positioning hole on a top thereof;
• and
• an uncovering mechanism mounted on the supporting assembly, comprising:
• a mounting frame mounted on the base plate and being above the housing;
• a driving member mounted on the mounting frame, comprising a driving rod extending towards the mounting portion;
• a transmission belt, and opposite ends of the transmission belt coupling to the driving rod;
• and
• a guiding rod resisting against the driving rod, and movably extending into the housing and the positioning hole.

A centrifuge configured to remove moisture from a workpiece, the centrifuge comprising:

• a supporting assembly comprising:
• a supporting portion;
• and
• a base plate coupled to the supporting portion;
• a centrifuging compartment comprising:
• a housing having a top surface that forms a least one inlet, wherein the housing is located beneath the base plate and adjacent to the supporting portion;
• and
• at least one sealing cover pivotably coupled to the housing, the at least one sealing cover configured to cover a corresponding one of the at least one inlet;
• a rotation mechanism coupled to a bottom surface of the housing, the rotation mechanism configured to rotatably extend through the top surface of the housing and the base plate;
• a feeding frame coupled to the rotation mechanism and located within the housing, the feeding frame comprising at least one loading portion configured to support and hold the workpiece, and the feeding frame further forming a positioning hole corresponding to the at least one loading portion;
• an uncovering mechanism mounted on the supporting assembly comprising:
• a mounting frame coupled to the base plate;
• a driving member coupled to the mounting frame and comprising a driving rod;
• at least one transmission belt coupled to the sealing cover and the driving rod, wherein the at least one transmission belt transmits motion from the driving rod to the sealing cover;
• and
• a guiding rod coupled to the driving rod, the guiding rod movably extending through the top surface of the housing, wherein the driving rod is configured to press the guiding rod to be inserted into the position hole to position the feeding frame, thereby aligning the workpiece to the inlet and simultaneously the driving rod cause the transmission belt to rotate the sealing cover to expose the inlet.
