- the pump is provided with a pump housing in which the pump hose and a rotor provided with two constriction means in the form of rollers is arranged.
- the two constricting means are diametrically opposite each other.
- it is proposed to enlarge the pump hose in the inlet region of the constricting means in its cross section. This is intended to provide an increased volume for delivery in the entry region and to prevent backflow of the medium from the exit side into the pump hose. Regardless of whether the desired effect can be achieved with the described features, the torque to be applied by the drive motor per rotor revolution is subject to great fluctuations.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to improve a trained according to the preamble of claim 1 pump such that it allows low-pulsation conveying, is low-wear and has a high efficiency that commercial hoses can be used and that of the drive motor per rotor revolution To be applied torque peaks are minimized.

- the dimensionally stable formed support frame 1 forms together with the hose holder 2, the actual housing of the pump.
- bearing bushes 11 are arranged on the support frame.
- the two end sides of the support frame 1 are formed by plates 12, which are provided with slots 15a, 15b for fixing the support frame 1 and the entire pump.
- the support frame 1 is provided on both sides with a plurality of slot-shaped recesses 13, in which locking elements 22 of the tube receptacle 2 are clamped fixable, as will be explained in more detail below.
- the tube receptacle 2 has a substantially omega-shaped tubular bed body 25 which extends on the inside coaxial with the axis of rotation of the rotor 3 over approximately 130 ° circular arc portion-shaped and forms a tube bed.
- omega-shaped means that the tube bed body 25 essentially has the shape of a large omega ( ⁇ ).
- ⁇ omega
- the tube bed is divided by groove-shaped recesses 21 into six sections, which serve to receive the flexible tube sections 43.
- the tube bed body 25 could be provided with a substantially smooth inside.
- the two legs 2a, 2b of the hose bed body 25 are provided on the outside with locking lugs 22, by means of which the hose receptacle 2 can be fixed to the slot-shaped recesses 13 of the support frame 1.
- radially extending reinforcing ribs 23 and axially extending reinforcing ribs 24 are provided on the outside of the hose bed body 25 .
- the radially extending reinforcing ribs 23 extend approximately 180 ° beyond the outside of the tube bed body 25.
- the tube receptacle 2 is dimensioned such that the two legs 2a, 2b of the tube bed body 25 are elastically resilient endwise in the radial direction and rapid fixation of the tube receptacle 2 allow in the sense of a snap connection on the support frame 1.
- the rotor 3 consists of a rotor body 31, which is provided with a central axis 32 which is inserted into the bearing bushes 11 of the support frame 1. On the rotor body 31 three formed in the form of rollers conveyor rollers 33 are rotatably mounted.
- the rotor body 3 is preferably made of plastic while the central axis 32 and the conveyor rollers 33 are preferably made of metal.
- the connecting element 4 consists of a base member 41, are attached to the twelve pipe sections 42. At the upper parts of these pipe sections 41 a total of six flexible hose sections 43 are arranged, which create after assembly of the pump on the inside of the hose bed body 25 and for the peristaltic promotion of a medium by the conveyor rollers 33 are squeezed. It is understood that the design of the inlet and outlet area is not limited to a six-channel pump, but the number of channels is virtually arbitrarily variable.
- connection element 4 The assembly of the items shown to a pump can be done in a few steps by first the individual tube sections 43 are attached to the connection element 4 and then the rotor 3 is inserted from the side into the loops forming tube sections 43. Thereafter, the tube holder 2 is placed in a U-shape and the rotor 3 is inserted together with the connection element 4 and the tube sections 43 connected thereto from above. Subsequently, the support frame 1 is placed and exerted a pressure, so that the axis 32 of the rotor 3 and the locking lugs 22 snap. Finally, the connection element 4 is fixed to the support frame 1. In the embodiment shown here, the connection element 4 is fastened by means of screws.

From this illustration, in particular, the rotor body 31 together with the three rotatably arranged thereon and rolling on the respective tube section 43 conveyor rollers 33a, 33b, 33c, the tube holder 2 with the omega-shaped tube bed body 25 and the radial and axial reinforcing ribs 23, 24 can be seen.
- the reinforcing ribs 23, 24 ensure that the tube receptacle 2 is dimensionally stable and does not deform during operation under the load of the conveyor rollers 33a, 33b, 33c.
- the area provided with the reference numeral 35 represents the inlet area
- the area provided with the reference numeral 36 forms the outlet area 36 of the pump. Due to the omega-shaped design of the tube bed body 25 with a "soft" inlet and outlet areas, a continuous and low pulsation peristaltic delivery of the respective medium is ensured. Another advantage of the soft inlet and outlet is the reduction of torque peaks, which would burden the engine and transmission.
- the pump can be operated both clockwise and counterclockwise.
- Soft or continuous inlet and outlet region means that both the inlet region 35 and the outlet region 36 are designed in such a way that the conveying effective tube cross section is continuously reduced or enlarged by the conveying roller 33a, 33c rolling on the respective flexible tube section 43. It is important in this context that the tube bed body 25 is made accurately and has a high dimensional accuracy during operation, so that the predetermined distances between conveyor roller 33a, 33b, 33c and tube bed body 25 are maintained.
- the pump Since the pump is designed symmetrically, it can also be operated bidirectionally, ie in both directions of rotation. From the illustration according to Fig. 2 It can also be seen that the respective tube section 43 is not completely squeezed together in the inlet region 35 and in the outlet region 36, while after the inlet region 35 it is completely squeezed out by the corresponding conveyor roller 33b and enables peristaltic delivery of the respective medium.
- Such a designed pump is particularly suitable for the gentle conveyance of liquid media such as blood, since the blood cells are spared by the specific design of the inlet and outlet areas 35, 36.
- hose receptacle 2 with a dimensionally stable hose bed body 25 and resilient legs 2a, 2b allows a very quick and easy installation by the hose receptacle 2 is simply clipped to the support frame.
- the legs 2a, 2b must be resiliently resilient for assembly, the tube bed body 25 must retain high dimensional accuracy and precision geometry after fixation. This is u.a. achieved in that the resilient parts are positioned and stiffened by means of external positive support on the support frame 1.
- Fig. 3 which shows the composite pump in a cross section between two tube sections 43, in particular the clamping fixation of the tube bed body 25 on the support frame 1 can be seen.
- the locking elements 22 also engage positively on an upper, the slot-shaped recesses 13 delimiting web 14 of the support frame 1 at.
- the legs 2a, 2b of the hose bed body 25 are supported by the web 14 of the support frame 1 on the outside form fit.
- This design ensures, in particular, the precise adherence to the optimized distances between the conveyor rollers 33a, 33b, 33c and the tube bed body 25.
- the individual, elastic tube sections 43 additionally support the fixation of the tube bed body 25 on the support frame 1, since the conveyor rollers 33a, 33b, 33c of the rotor 3 load the tube bed body 25 in the radial direction via the tube sections 43 so that its fixation on the support frame 1 is additionally supported ,

Peristaltische Pumpen der hier zur Rede stehenden Art sind grundsätzlich bekannt. Sie werden zur Förderung verschiedenster flüssiger oder gasförmiger Medien eingesetzt.Peristaltic pumps of the type in question are basically known. They are used to convey a wide variety of liquid or gaseous media.
Ein grundsätzlicher Nachteil der peristaltischen Pumpen anhaftet besteht darin, dass ihr Fördervolumen nicht konstant ist, sondern mehr oder weniger pulsiert.

Die
Der formstabil ausgebildete Tragrahmen 1 bildet zusammen mit der Schlauchaufnahme 2 das eigentliche Gehäuse der Pumpe. Zur drehbaren Lagerung des Rotors 3 sind am Tragrahmen 1 zwei Lagerbuchsen 11 angeordnet. Die beiden Stirnseiten des Tragrahmens 1 werden durch Platten 12 gebildet, welche mit Schlitzen 15a, 15b zum Fixieren des Tragrahmens 1 bzw. der gesamten Pumpe versehen sind. Schliesslich ist der Tragrahmen 1 auf beiden Seiten mit mehreren schlitzförmigen Aussparungen 13 versehen, in welchen Rastelemente 22 der Schlauchaufnahme 2 klemmend fixierbar sind, wie nachfolgend noch näher erläutert wird.The dimensionally stable formed
Die Schlauchaufnahme 2 weist einen im wesentlichen omegaförmig ausgebildeten Schlauchbettkörper 25 auf, der sich auf der Innenseite koaxial zur Drehachse des Rotors 3 über ca. 130° kreisbogenabschnittförmig erstreckt und ein Schlauchbett bildet. Omegaförmig heisst im vorliegenden Fall, dass der Schlauchbettkörper 25 im wesentlichen die Form eines grossen Omega (Ω) aufweist. Im Endbereich bildet der Schlauchbettkörper 25 zwei Schenkel 2a, 2b, die von innen nach aussen in einem fliessenden Übergang von einer konkaven in eine konvexe Form übergehen. Das Schlauchbett wird durch nutförmige Ausnehmungen 21 in sechs Abschnitte unterteilt, die der Aufnahme der flexiblen Schlauchabschnitte 43 dienen. Anstelle der nutförmigen Ausnehmungen 21 zur Bildung von sechs Abschnitten könnte auch eine Schlauchmatte, bestehend aus sechs miteinander verbundenen Schläuchen, zum Einsatz kommen. In diesem Fall könnte der Schlauchbettkörper 25 mit einer weitgehend glatten Innenseite versehen werden. Die beiden Schenkel 2a, 2b des Schlauchbettkörpers 25 sind auf der Aussenseite mit Rastnasen 22 versehen, mittels welchen die Schlauchaufnahme 2 an den schlitzförmigen Aussparungen 13 des Tragrahmens 1 fixierbar ist. Auf der Aussenseite des Schlauchbettkörpers 25 sind radial verlaufende Verstärkungsrippen 23 sowie axial verlaufende Verstärkungsrippen 24 vorgesehen. Die radial verlaufenden Verstärkungsrippen 23 erstrecken sich ca. 180° über die Aussenseite des Schlauchbettkörpers 25. Jedenfalls ist die Schlauchaufnahme 2 derart dimensioniert, dass die beiden Schenkel 2a, 2b des Schlauchbettkörpers 25 endseitig in radialer Richtung federelastisch nachgiebig sind und ein schnelles Fixeren der Schlauchaufnahme 2 im Sinne einer Schnappverbindung am Tragrahmen 1 ermöglichen.The
Der Rotor 3 besteht aus einem Rotorkörper 31, der mit einer zentralen Achse 32 versehen ist, die in die Lagerbuchsen 11 des Tragrahmens 1 eingesetzt wird. Am Rotorkörper 31 sind drei in Form von Walzen ausgebildete Förderrollen 33 drehbar gelagert. Der Rotorkörper 3 ist vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff gefertigt während die zentrale Achse 32 sowie die Förderrollen 33 vorzugsweise aus Metall bestehen.The
Das Anschlusselement 4 besteht aus einem Grundelement 41, an dem zwölf Rohrabschnitte 42 befestigt sind. An den oberen Teilen dieser Rohrabschnitte 41 sind insgesamt sechs flexible Schlauchabschnitte 43 angeordnet, welche sich nach dem Zusammenbau der Pumpe an der Innenseite des Schlauchbettkörpers 25 anlegen und zur peristaltischen Förderung eines Mediums durch die Förderrollen 33 abquetschbar sind. Es versteht sich, dass die Gestaltung des Ein- und Auslaufbereichs nicht auf eine sechskanalige Pumpe beschränkt ist, sondern die Anzahl der Kanäle praktisch beliebig variierbar ist.The connecting
Der Zusammenbau der dargestellten Einzelteile zu einer Pumpe kann mit wenigen Handgriffen erfolgen, indem zuerst die einzelnen Schlauchabschnitte 43 am Anschlusselement 4 befestigt werden und danach der Rotor 3 von der Seite in die Schlaufen bildenden Schlauchabschnitte 43 eingeschoben wird. Danach wird die Schlauchaufnahme 2 u-förmig aufgestellt und der Rotor 3 zusammen mit dem Anschlusselement 4 und den daran angeschlossenen Schlauchabschnitten 43 von oben her eingeschoben. Anschliessend wird der Tragrahmen 1 aufgesetzt und ein Druck ausgeübt, so dass die Achse 32 des Rotors 3 sowie die Rastnasen 22 einschnappen. Schliesslich wird das Anschlusselement 4 am Tragrahmen 1 fixiert. Beim hier gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel wird das Anschlusselement 4 mittels Schrauben befestigt. Alternativ kann zum Befestigen des Anschlusselements 4 jedoch eine Schnappverbindung vorgesehen werden, welche ein schnelles Fixieren des Anschlusselements 4 am Tragrahmen 1 ermöglicht. Der gesamte Zusammenbau der Pumpe kann sehr schnell und ohne die Zuhilfenahme von Werkzeugen von einer Seite her erfolgen, was einen Vorteil bei der automatischen Fertigung darstellt.The assembly of the items shown to a pump can be done in a few steps by first the
Die
Weicher bzw. kontinuierlicher Ein- und Auslaufbereich bedeutet, dass sowohl der Einlaufbereich 35 wie auch der Auslaufbereich 36 so gestaltet sind, dass durch die sich auf dem jeweiligen flexiblen Schlauchabschnitt 43 abrollende Förderrolle 33a, 33c der förderwirksame Schlauchquerschnitt kontinuierlich verkleinert bzw. vergrössert wird. Wichtig ist in diesem Zusammenhang, dass der Schlauchbettkörper 25 genau gefertigt ist und im Betrieb eine hohe Formtreue aufweist, so dass die vorgegebenen Abstände zwischen Förderrolle 33a, 33b, 33c und Schlauchbettkörper 25 eingehalten werden.Soft or continuous inlet and outlet region means that both the
Neben den genannten Vorteilen ergeben sich durch einen kontinuierlichen Ein- und Auslaufbereich 35, 36 weitere Vorteile, indem beispielsweise die bei der Rotation des Rotors 3 auftretenden Drehmomentschwankungen minimiert werden. Dies wird zusätzlich durch die Tatsache begünstigt, dass der Rotor 3 mit drei Förderrollen 33a, 33b, 33c versehen ist und der Einlaufbereich 35 gegenüber dem Auslaufbereich 36 um ca. 240° um die Drehachse des Rotors 3 versetzt ist, so dass sich die erste Förderrolle 33a in etwa in der Mitte des Einlaufbereichs 35 befindet, wenn sich die dritte Förderrolle 33c in etwa in der Mitte des Auslaufbereichs 36 befindet. Durch die gezeigte Gestaltung wird zudem auch ein hoher Wirkungsgrad erzielt und die mechanische Belastung der Schlauchabschnitte reduziert, was deren Lebensdauer erhöht. Da die Pumpe symmetrisch gestaltet ist kann sie auch bidirektional, d.h. in beiden Drehrichtungen betrieben werden. Aus der Darstellung gemäss
Die Ausbildung der Schlauchaufnahme 2 mit einem formstabilen Schlauchbettkörper 25 und federelastisch nachgiebigen Schenkeln 2a, 2b ermöglicht eine sehr schnelle und einfache Montage, indem die Schlauchaufnahme 2 einfach am Tragrahmen eingeklipst wird. Obwohl die Schenkel 2a, 2b für die Montage zwar federelastisch nachgiebig sein müssen, muss der Schlauchbettkörper 25 nach dem Fixieren eine hohe Masshaltigkeit und eine präzise Geometrie beibehalten. Dies wird u.a. dadurch erreicht, dass die federelastisch nachgiebigen Teile mittels äusserer formschlüssiger Abstützung am Tragrahmen 1 positioniert und versteift werden.The formation of the
Aus der
Die einzelnen, elastischen Schlauchabschnitte 43 unterstützen die Fixierung des Schlauchbettkörpers 25 am Tragrahmen 1 zusätzlich, da die Förderrollen 33a, 33b, 33c des Rotors 3 den Schlauchbettkörper 25 über die Schlauchabschnitte 43 in radialer Richtung belasten, so dass dessen Fixierung am Tragrahmen 1 zusätzlich unterstützt wird.The individual,
Das Anschlusselement 4 ist derart ausgestaltet und auf die Schlauchaufnahme 2 und den Rotor 3 abgestimmt, dass der einzelne Schlauchabschnitt 43 im wesentlichen tangential in den Schlauchbettkörper 25 der Schlauchaufnahme 2 hinein- und auch wieder hinausgeführt wird.The connecting
Obwohl vorgängig immer auf das in den Zeichnungen dargestellte Ausführungsbeispiel einer Pumpe mit 3 Förderrollen Bezug genommen wurde, versteht es sich, dass die Anzahl Förderrollen im Rahmen der durch die Patentansprüche definierten Erfindung praktisch beliebig variierbar ist. Dabei muss der Schlauchbettkörper 25 den Rotor 3 in Abhängigkeit der Anzahl Förderrollen zumindest soweit umschlingen, dass immer zumindest eine Förderrolle 33a, 33b 33c aktiv ist, d.h. mit dem jeweiligen Schlauchabschnitt im Eingriff steht und diesen abquetscht. Die minimale Umschlingung bzw. der minimale Umschlingungswinkel kann dabei folgendermassen berechnet werden:
Bei Anwendung von Schlauchpumpen für höhere Drücke kann es darüber hinaus vorteilhaft sein, mindestens zwei Förderrollen zu jedem Zeitpunkt im Eingriff zu haben. In diesem Fall wird die Umschlingung nach folgender Formel berechnet:
Die berechnete Umschlingung ist jeweils als Mindestmass zu verstehen. Vorzugsweise wird die Umschlingung ca. 10° grösser gewählt, als der nach vorgängiger Formel berechnete Umschlingungswinkel. Unter Umschlingung ist derjenige Teil des Schlauchbetts zu verstehen, der den Rotor koaxial umfasst.The calculated loop is to be understood as a minimum. Preferably, the wrap is selected to be about 10 ° greater than the wrap angle calculated by the preceding formula. By wrap is meant that part of the tubular bed which comprises the rotor coaxially.
Zusammenfassend lässt sich festhalten, dass eine erfindungsgemäss gestaltete, Pumpe ein pulsationsarmes Fördern ermöglicht, dass sie einen hohen Wirkungsgrad besitzt, verschleissarm ist und geringen Drehmomentschwankungen unterliegt. Zudem ist sie einfach und kompakt aufgebaut, besteht aus wenigen Teilen, kann schnell und ohne Werkzeug aus einer Montagerichtung zusammengebaut werden, so dass sie sich insbesondere auch für eine automatische Fertigung eignet. Ausserdem weist das aus Tragrahmen 1 und Schlauchaufnahme 2 bestehende Gehäuse der Pumpe nach dem Zusammenbau eine hohe Formtreue und Stabilität auf. Die Pumpe kann zudem bidirektional betrieben und universell eingesetzt werden. Sie eignet sich insbesondere auch zur zellschonenden Förderung von Flüssigkeiten wie beispielsweise Blut.In summary, it can be stated that a pump configured according to the invention enables low-pulsation conveying, that it has a high degree of efficiency, is low-wear and is subject to slight torque fluctuations. In addition, it is simple and compact, consists of a few parts, can be assembled quickly and without tools from a mounting direction, so that it is particularly suitable for automatic production.
