Definitions
- the invention is concerned with a peristaltic pump according to the preamble of claim 1.
- peristaltic pumps are known for generating a fluid flow in a channel, commonly a hose of rubber or equivalent, without any propulsion element, apart from the channel wall, directly contacting the fluid to be propulsed. Therefore, the channel is periodically compressed or squeezed between propulsion elements and arresting elements and released to return to its initial shape, such that a "peristaltic" movement of the channel wall is generated and the fluid within the channel is therewith propulsed.
- the known peristaltic pump has difficulties in maintenance or repair. It is difficult for the known peristaltic pump to be controlled for its proper functioning. Parts of the known peristaltic pump will wear relatively fast. Furthermore, the known peristaltic pump is assembled from relatively many parts, yielding an expensive production.
- the invention provides for ease of removing or installing the channel (typically a rubber hose or equivalent) from or into the peristaltic pump.
- the channel typically a rubber hose or equivalent
- the costs of e.g. maintenance and repair can be lowered dramatically.
- the hose must be replaced/cleaned (desinfected) frequently, in view of the high demands for leak tightness and hygiene
- peristaltic pumps are widely applied in the field of medicine, e.g. for kidney dialysis purposes, but for e.g. enterale or parental administration as well.
- Based on costst and environemental effects there is a demand for a re-usable peristaltic pump with only a minimum number, preferable none at all, parts that must be replaced for re-use.
- the invention has important advantages because of the simple replaceability of the hose, too. It further brings an advantage to the producer in assembling the peristaltic pump according to the invention.
- the presence of the window gives the opportunity, to monitor the proper function of the peristaltic pump.
- the housing By integrating the arresting element in the housing, a further production advantage is achieved, while it is further prevented, compared to an embodiment with a seperate part, that it can't be lost, e.g. during maintenance or repair. In this way, it is not difficult to reliably adjust the distance between the propulsion element and the arresting element, that can be achieved in an automatic manner if the housing is closed, ready for use.
- the housing can be made from only two seperate parts, which shows advantages for its fabrication. If the seperate components of the housing can be made matching or fitting by sliding them into each other, the release of the pump channel from between the propulsion element and the arresting element for its replacement can be achieved too.
- those seperate parts of the housing can be designed such that they slidingly match with tongue and groove, or they are designed with means equivalent to tongue and groove to achieve the same sliding engagement.
- the propulsion element and the pump channel its is further advantageous, to provide the peristaltic pump with a lubricating element making sliding or rubbing contact with the propulsion element.
- the propulsion element is continuously lubricated, such that there is a continuous lubrication between the hose and the propulsion element, dramatically decreasing ageing (wear).
- the propulsion element contains one or more free rotating rolls, engageing the hose, there is still substantial wear due to improper (garanteed over time) lubrication between the propulsion element and the pump channel.
- a reliable mutual positional locking can be achieved, requiring only a minimum number of additional components (screws, nuts, bolts, snapping tongues, etc.) to mutually attach the housing parts, preferably easily, detachable.
- a reliable arresting means can be provided as well, to reliably and accurately and reproducably adjust the necessary spacing between the propulsion element and the arresting element for a proper functioning of the peristaltic pump, without requiring cumbrous adjustment procedures for the peristaltic pump.
- a very attractive appearance of the peristaltic pump can be achieved with slidingly engageing housing parts as well.

Description
- The invention is concerned with a peristaltic pump according to the preamble of
claim 1. - Many peristaltic pumps are known for generating a fluid flow in a channel, commonly a hose of rubber or equivalent, without any propulsion element, apart from the channel wall, directly contacting the fluid to be propulsed. Therefore, the channel is periodically compressed or squeezed between propulsion elements and arresting elements and released to return to its initial shape, such that a "peristaltic" movement of the channel wall is generated and the fluid within the channel is therewith propulsed.
- The known peristaltic pump has difficulties in maintenance or repair. It is difficult for the known peristaltic pump to be controlled for its proper functioning. Parts of the known peristaltic pump will wear relatively fast. Furthermore, the known peristaltic pump is assembled from relatively many parts, yielding an expensive production.
- It is the object of the present invention, to provide an improved peristaltic pump.
- Therefore, a peristaltic pump is proposed according to the combination of features of
claim 1. The dependant claims are directed to preferred embodiments. - In the first place, the invention provides for ease of removing or installing the channel (typically a rubber hose or equivalent) from or into the peristaltic pump. For e.g. medical appliances, the costs of e.g. maintenance and repair can be lowered dramatically. For such purpose, the hose must be replaced/cleaned (desinfected) frequently, in view of the high demands for leak tightness and hygiene, while peristaltic pumps are widely applied in the field of medicine, e.g. for kidney dialysis purposes, but for e.g. enterale or parental administration as well. Based on costst and environemental effects there is a demand for a re-usable peristaltic pump with only a minimum number, preferable none at all, parts that must be replaced for re-use. For other fields of application outside medicine, the invention has important advantages because of the simple replaceability of the hose, too. It further brings an advantage to the producer in assembling the peristaltic pump according to the invention.
- The presence of the window gives the opportunity, to monitor the proper function of the peristaltic pump.
- By integrating the arresting element in the housing, a further production advantage is achieved, while it is further prevented, compared to an embodiment with a seperate part, that it can't be lost, e.g. during maintenance or repair. In this way, it is not difficult to reliably adjust the distance between the propulsion element and the arresting element, that can be achieved in an automatic manner if the housing is closed, ready for use. Conveniently, the housing can be made from only two seperate parts, which shows advantages for its fabrication. If the seperate components of the housing can be made matching or fitting by sliding them into each other, the release of the pump channel from between the propulsion element and the arresting element for its replacement can be achieved too. For that purpose those seperate parts of the housing can be designed such that they slidingly match with tongue and groove, or they are designed with means equivalent to tongue and groove to achieve the same sliding engagement. For the purpose of lubrication between the propulsion element and the pump channel (the hose), its is further advantageous, to provide the peristaltic pump with a lubricating element making sliding or rubbing contact with the propulsion element. In this way the propulsion element is continuously lubricated, such that there is a continuous lubrication between the hose and the propulsion element, dramatically decreasing ageing (wear). Even if with the known peristaltic pump the propulsion element contains one or more free rotating rolls, engageing the hose, there is still substantial wear due to improper (garanteed over time) lubrication between the propulsion element and the pump channel.
- By providing one of the slidingly engageing components of the housing with projecting cams, engageing into corresponding recesses in the other component of the housing, a reliable mutual positional locking can be achieved, requiring only a minimum number of additional components (screws, nuts, bolts, snapping tongues, etc.) to mutually attach the housing parts, preferably easily, detachable. With those cams, engageing into recesses, a reliable arresting means can be provided as well, to reliably and accurately and reproducably adjust the necessary spacing between the propulsion element and the arresting element for a proper functioning of the peristaltic pump, without requiring cumbrous adjustment procedures for the peristaltic pump. A very attractive appearance of the peristaltic pump can be achieved with slidingly engageing housing parts as well.
- The invention will further be discussed with reference to a non-limiting embodiment as shown in the accompanying drawings. In the drawings is:
- Fig. 1 a perspective view of the peristaltic pump according to the invention;
- Fig. 2 a perspective view, viewed from the back, of a first housing part of the peristaltic pump of fig. 1; and
- Fig. 3 a perspective view, from the same angle of view of fig. 1, of a second housing part of the peristaltic pump with additional parts, contained therein.
- The
peristaltic pump 1 of fig. 1 is assembled from twoseperate housing parts housing part 2 substantially makes thefront wall 4 and theupper wall 5 of thehousing 1. Thehousing part 2 has in its front wall 4 awindow 6, such that the inside of the housing can be viewed. Thefront wall 4 of thehousing part 2 furthermore has abolt 7 at its lower side, to threadingly attach thefront wall 4 to the lower wall 8 of the second housing part 3 (threaded hole 9). For that purpose, thebolt 7 projects into ahole 10 in thefront wall 4. At itsupper wall 5 thisfirst housing part 2 furthermore carries twocams 11 projecting from both sides, the prupose of which will be clarified further. Apart from thosecams 11, thisfirst housing part 2 is designed smaller than thesecond housing part 3. Thefirst housing part 2 furthermore has two opposing "false"side walls 12, that will be covered substantially completely by the "real" opposingside walls 13 of thesecond housing part 3, when bothhousing parts walls 12 define anarcurate part 14, which functions as arresting element, as exemplified further. Finally, thefront wall 4 of thefirst housing part 2 carries at its lower edge a lip 15, projecting inside from thefront wall 4, the function of which will be discussed further. - The
second housing part 3 further comprises a supportingplate 16 e.g. for mounting theperistaltic pump 1. Thesecond housing part 3 contains a rotation-element 17. It is assembled from two spaced discs 18 (only one of which is visible) of about the same diameter, provided coaxially and driven in rotation w.r.t. their axis of rotation, and in between threerollers 19. Theserollers 19 are provided equally spaced at the circumference of thediscs 18, and are all free rotating around abearing pin 20, the ends of which are supported by the circumference of thediscs 18. Eachroller 19 projects a little bit beyond thediscs 18, as illustrated. Around therotation element 17, and in contact with at least one of therollers 19 each time, ahose 21 is provided in an open loop shape. Thishose 21 is hollow and made from rubbery or similar, elastic yielding material. The ends of thehose 21 are connected to a feed andexhaust pipe 22, respectively. As is shown in fig. 3, thehose 21, but therotation element 17 as well, is easily accessible if thefirst housing part 2 is removed. Immediately below the rotation element 17 a labricating surface 23 is provided. This lubricating surface 23 projects from the supportingplate 16 into the housing. The lubricating surface 23 has a convenient cover (not shown) release a lubricant. The arrangement is such that each time the lubricating surface 23 is in sliding or rubbing engagement with a passingroller 19, such that each time a little bit of lubricant will be transferred from the lubricating surface 23 to therespective passing roller 19. The lubricating surface can be convenient for simultaniously removing debris from therespective roller 19 as well. Below the lubricating surface 23 and below the threadedhole 9 the lower wall 8 of thesecond housing part 3 has a step orshoulder 24. Said step orshoulder 24 is such that the lip 15 of the first housing part engages therein when assembled according to figure 1. At the upper side, i.e. at the side opposing the step, arecess 25 is provided in bothopposing side walls 13, adjacent the supportingplate 16, for receiving a cam 11 (viz. fig. 1). Eachrecess 25 is open towards the top in the direction parallel to the surface containing thehose 21. In other terms, the recesses are opened in a direction in which thefirst housing part 2 can be slid out of the second housing part 3 (viz. arrow A in fig. 1). - When the both
housing parts first housing part 2 with thecams 11, the lip 15 and thebolt 7, is fixed w.r.t. thesecond housing part 3. By unscrewing thebolt 7, the lower side of thefront wall 4 can be pulled slightly forward, such that the lip 15 is released from thestep 24. Then thefirst housing part 2 can slide in the direction of arrow A (fig. 1) w.r.t. thesecond housing part 3, such that thecams 11 are freed from therespective recesses 25, and after that thehousing part 2 can be completely removed. The "false"walls 12 closely fit between theside walls 13 and provide therewith a reliable and accurate slide guide. At the same time said "false"side walls 12 provide an arresting element for thehose 21 with theirinner side 14. Thehose 21 is therewith confined between therotation element 17 and theinner side 14 of saidside walls 12. The hose is frequently pressed against theinner side 14 by therollers 19, providing for the necessary "peristaltic" pump movement. By the mutual accurate and reliable guiding of thewalls cams 11 and therecesses 25, without cumbersome adjustment, the convenient spacing between therotation element 17 and the arresting element 14 (the inner side of the walls 12), and therewith the convenient confinement of thehose 21 can be achieved. After opening the housing by removing thehousing part 2, thehose 21 can easily be disengaged from thepipes 22, and subsequently can be removed in radial direction w.r.t. therotation element 17. For a further accurate guidance, thewalls side wall 4 at its lower edge, after removing thebolt 7, can not be pulled slightly outw ard from the housing to release the lip 15 from thestep 24. In that situation the lip 15 is a snapping tongue and thebolt 7 might be eliminated. Said lip 15 could be disengaged from thestep 24 by use of a seperate tool. Since thefront wall 4 extends beyond the "false"side walls 2 at its lower edge, thefront wall 4 slightly covers the lower wall 8 (viz. fig. 1), and that is advantageous for an attractive appearance of the housing. It is also advantageous for an attractive appearance of the housing if thefront wall 4 is substantially narrower than the widthwise dimension provided by the outer sides of the opposingside walls 13 and saidside walls 13, or further components connected thereto, make a part of thefront wall 4 but also theupper wall 5 as well, e.g. withattractive facet shape 26, moulded in correspondence with the shape of thecams 11.
