A planar centrifugal chromatography device includes a chamber (2), and a rotor (3) arranged therein, driven by a motor (12) and serving as a separating element. The rotor has a supporting plate (15) with an adsorbing medium (4) provided thereon. A collecting device (5) is arranged near the outer edge of the rotor, but within the chamber. The characteristics of the invention include the collecting device (5) and the rotor (3) being mounted on a common shaft (10) and each individual point of a wall of the collecting device (5) being farther away from the axis of rotation (14) than the point of the adsorbing medium (4) which is farthest from the axis of rotation (14), and include the distances of individual points on the wall of the collecting device (5), measured from the axis of rotation (14), varying. At each point on the collecting device which is farther from the axis than two points which are adjacent to it, there is arranged an output opening (6) which is connected by a discharge channel (7) to a hollow part of the shaft (10) of the rotor (3), and wherein a stationary discharge element (8), for example a pump, is connected to the shaft (10).
In a planar centrifugal chromatography device which includes a chamber with a rotating rotor therein constructed as a chromatographical separating element having a support plate, having an annular adsorbing medium arranged on the support plate, and having a collecting device arranged very close to the outer edge of the rotor within the chamber, the improvement comprising wherein the collecting device and the rotor are mounted fixedly on a common shaft and every individual point on an inner surface of the collecting device is farther from the axis of rotation than the point of the adsorbing medium of the rotor which is the farthest from the axis of rotation, wherein the distances of the individual points on the inner surface of the collecting device from the axis of rotation vary, and at each point on the collecting device which is farther from the axis than two adjacent points there is arranged an output opening which is connected to an axially extending hollow part of the shaft of the rotor through a discharge channel, and wherein the device has a stationery discharge element which is connected to the hollow part of the shaft.
