20080294040 | VOLUMETRIC PUMP - In one embodiment, a volumetric pump in a medical fluid delivery system comprises at least one piston in a hollow cylinder, the pump having at least one inlet port through which a medical fluid can be sucked into a pump chamber during an instroke of said piston, and at least one outlet port through which the medical fluid can be expelled during an outstroke of the piston. The piston or the hollow cylinder can be actuated directly or indirectly by a rotor. This rotor transmits on the one hand a bi-directional linear movement to the piston or to the cylinder and on the other hand, a bi-directional angular movement either to the piston or to another ratable element in order to open and close alternately the inlet and outlet ports. | 11-27-2008 |

20090196775 | VOLUMETRIC PUMP COMPRISING A DRIVING MECHANISM - A volumetric pump comprises at least one piston inside a cylindrical housing and means to cause a relative to-and-fro linear movement between the cylindrical housing and the piston in order to produce a stroke of the volumetric pump. This pump further comprises a bi-directional angular rotatable disc acting as a valve which connects alternately at least one inlet port and at least one outlet port to a least one pump chamber located inside the housing, and a driving mechanism arranged to dissociate at least partially the bi-directional angular movement of the rotatable disc with the to-and-fro linear movement of the housing. This driving mechanism is arranged such that the rotatable disc reaches an angular position at which it opens and/or closes the inlet and/or outlet ports when there is no relative to-and-fro linear movement between the cylindrical housing and the piston. | 08-06-2009 |

20120118138 | FLUID DELIVERY SYSTEM COMPRISING A FLUID PUMPING DEVICE AND A DRIVE SYSTEM - A fluid pumping device having a pump housing containing a piston chamber and a reciprocating piston, an inlet port and an outlet port allowing a fluid to enter the piston chamber during an instroke of the piston and be expelled during an outstroke. The device further having a valve switching element movably mounted against a valve base member, with a piston chamber aperture connected to the piston chamber and an inlet aperture and an outlet aperture connected respectively to the inlet and outlet ports of the fluid pumping device. The element has a grooves in the valve base member providing, a first communication between the inlet aperture and the piston chamber aperture so that fluid is sucked, into the piston chamber during part of the piston instroke, and a second communication aperture expelling fluid out of the piston chamber, through the outlet port during part of the piston outstroke. | 05-17-2012 |
20150147210 | PULSATION-FREE POSITIVE DISPLACEMENT ROTARY PUMP - A pump having two pistons placed in a rotor, situated in a stator forming two opposite parallel eccentric pumping chambers having at least one inlet port through which the fluid is drawn into at least one of the pumping chambers during the filling movement of at least one of the pistons and, subsequently, expelled from at least one of the pumping chambers, during the emptying movement of at least one of the pistons, to at least one outlet port, characterized by an inlet cavity in connection with the inlet port, an outlet cavity in connection with the outlet port and two port changeover transition zones situated between each side of the cavities. | 05-28-2015 |
20150246176 | FLUID DELIVERY SYSTEM AND METHODS - A fluid delivery device for delivering small quantities of fluid such as insulin to a patient, including a disposable unit having a disposable housing that has one lower part and one upper part, which together form a shell that defines an internal partial toroidal arcuate cavity. The housing fits together with a drive unit. The housing contains an arcuate cylinder for containing fluid to be delivered, a piston movably mounted in the cylinder for driving out fluid to be delivered, an adhesive support for attaching the housing and a cannula that when the housing is attached to a patient is insertable in the patient's skin for delivering fluid. The drive unit is preferably removably mounted on a front of the housing opposite the adhesive support, the removable drive unit having a shape that when fitted complements the shape of the front face of the housing to form with the housing. | 09-03-2015 |
