  11. Konstruktionsverfahren einer piezoelektrischen Keramikluftpumpe nach Anspruch 10, ferner umfassend Schritt B:
    Montieren von zwei piezoelektrischen Keramikkristallmembranen (50), einschließlich einer oberen und einer unteren piezoelektrischen Keramikkristallmembran (51, 53); wobei die obere und die untere piezoelektrische Keramikkristallmembran (51, 53) koaxial gegenüberliegend auf einer Außenfläche eines Metallsubstrats (91) davon angeordnet sind und den Pumpenkörper (10) abdichten und einschließen, um die gemeinsame Arbeitspumpenkammer (15) aufzubauen.
  12. Konstruktionsverfahren einer piezoelektrischen Keramikluftpumpe nach Anspruch 11, das ferner den Schritt C umfasst:
    Anordnen eines Abstandshalters (14), der konfiguriert ist, um die obere und untere piezoelektrische Keramikkristallmembran (51, 53) zu tragen und parallel dazu im Pumpenkörper (10) zu isolieren, wobei am Abstandshalter (14) in der Nähe der Lufteinlass- und -auslassventile (61, 63) eine Öffnung (16) vorgesehen ist, so dass der tote Hohlraum der gemeinsamen Arbeitspumpenkammer (15) reduziert und die Pumpeffizienz verbessert werden.
  13. Konstruktionsverfahren einer piezoelektrischen Keramikluftpumpe nach Anspruch 11 oder 12, ferner mit dem Schritt D:
    gleichzeitiges Zusammendrücken oder axiales Ausdehnen voneinander durch die obere und untere piezoelektrische Keramikkristall-Membran (51, 53) innerhalb jedes Stromquellenhalbzyklus, wenn eine Wechselstromerregungsspannung an die obere und untere piezoelektrische Keramikkristallmembran (51, 53) angelegt wird.
