Description

A kind of mini self-priming pump
Technical field
The invention belongs to the microelectromechanical systems field, relate to microfluid transmission and control technique, especially relate to the micropump structure.
Background technique
In the last few years, MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System) be integrated micro mechanism, microsensor, miniature final controlling element and signal processing with control circuit even interface, communicate by letter and power supply etc. in the microdevice or the system of one, be based on microelectronic, micromechanics and materials science, the micro device that research, design, manufacturing have specific function.Utilize micromachining technology to make microfluidic device, be used to carry, detect the device of control microlitre magnitude flow, fluid, it is the basis of microfluid system, and wherein little valve, micropump, micro passage and microflow sensor are the most representative microfluidic devices.
Microfluid system is very suitable for research applications such as life science, biochemistry, analytical chemistry and medical science owing to have superiority such as volume is little, simple to operate, easy for installation, computer interface control.Utilize the MEMS process engineering to produce complete function, Biological Chip cheap, easy to carry, it often collects Sample handling, detection, analysis and output of one as a result, become biology laboratory on the miniature sheet, can finish as body fluid component analyzing, DNA component analysis etc. all multi-functional.
Micropump as fluid drives part in the micrometeor system, because it can accurately drive and control fluid, carry at the medicine trace, the aspects such as propelling of the injection of fuel trace, cell separation, integrating electronic element cooling, gene engineering, microchemical analysis and microminiature satellite have important and use widely.
At present, micropump structure, the processing technology developed are various informative, driving mode has electrostatically driven, Piezoelectric Driving, Electromagnetic Drive, heat driving, pneumatic, electric liquid driving, optical drive, ultrasound-driven respectively, bubble drives and the marmem film drives or the like, but the Micropump of practicability does not also have at home, compare with other driving mode that is applied to microelectromechanical systems, has superior mechanical characteristic based on Piezoelectric Driving, static and electromagnetic drive mode, enough big driving force and displacement can be provided, speed of response is fast, good reliability.Therefore obtain common concern.
Valve free pump utilizes the new features of fluid under micro-dimension, the principle novelty, but there is backflow phenomenon to exist, the scope of its use is diminished.The Micropump of passive check valve formula, though the performance of damming has improved, the open and close of safety check mainly are to utilize inside and outside differential pressure, if pressure reduction is too little, unlatching is just very difficult, and valve block is blocked easily simultaneously, small particulate is particularly arranged in the liquid, so maintenance is just very difficult, can shorten working life.Also have heat to drive the report of two-chamber Micropump, the major defect of this structure Micropump is: 1) the pump chamber dead volume is excessive, does not allow to realize self-priming, need annotate sample in the time of work, will waste medicine or reagent like this.2) speed of response of heat driving is low.3) not high to the liquid pump speed, 4) can not pump gas.Because above-mentioned these deficiencys are arranged, the Micropump commercialization of these types is very difficult.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to overcome prior art processing technology difficulty, working life is short and work is unstable problem, the self-priming micropump that provides a kind of aggressive valve to combine with change gap elastic buffer mechanism.
To achieve these goals, the technological scheme of self-priming micropump of the present invention is as follows: comprise mainly and being made up of sheet, the pump housing last slice and driver three parts under the pump housing, wherein: between the sheet pump housing last slice is being arranged under the driver and the pump housing; Pump chamber, valve seat, first conic diffuse, conical converging, second conic diffuse are arranged on the sheet body under the pump housing; Between first conic diffuse on the pump chamber and second conic diffuse, valve seat is arranged, on valve seat, be inlaid with conical converging.
The working principle of miniature self-priming pump is: when being added with square wave ac signal on piezoelectric actuator, piezoelectric actuator meeting periodic vibration, driver can make the pumping diaphragm vibration, the contraction mouth of conical converging can periodically be plugged and open, the diffusing opening of conic diffuse is in open mode always, because pumping diaphragm is made periodic vibration under the driving force in cycle, make the pump chamber volume do cyclically-varying, thereby realize the suction and the discharge of operation material.
The invention has the advantages that:
1. pumping diaphragm of the present invention (pump housing last slice) can adopt PDMS (dimethyl silicone polymer), silicon, glass or macromolecule polymer material, and the pumping diaphragm material selection has diversity.
2. the present invention is incorporated into one with the pump housing last slice, active valve block and elastic buffer unit, makes self-priming micropump dead volume little.
3. what drive part of the present invention adopted can be multifarious driving mode such as piezoelectricity, static, electromagnetism.
4. aggressive valve provided by the present invention and the Micropump that diffusing tube, collapsible tube combine have avoided using passive valve block.Because the easy fatigue damage of passive valve block, the reverse shortcomings such as performance is bad of damming, the application of aggressive valve has prolonged the working life of micropump, has improved the reliability of micropump.
5. the present invention can adopt micro machining, micro mechanical technology compatible mutually material and technology manufacturing, have simple in structure, be easy to produce in batches, cost is low.
6. volume is little, in light weight, low in energy consumption, advantages such as easy of integrationization.
This Micropump is a kind of single aggressive valve, single pumping diaphragm, single pump chamber structure, can solve effectively cyclic fluctuation, flow shakiness, can not self-priming and can not be used for the problem of gas operation material etc., make that output flow is stable, adjustable, complete self-priming does not need to annotate sample continuously.Both can be used for the liquid working material, also can be used for the gas operation material, improve the working life and the working stability of Micropump.
