  • FIG-7 162 MULTI-CHANNEL PUMP BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • Conventional peristaltic pumps are primarily of the single channel type, for pumping a single flow of liquid. If multiple flows of liquid or gases are required, a plurality of pumps each carrying its own drive motor, must be used. This entails substantial pump costs.
  • the rate of flow is uniform for each channel.
  • separate pumps must be used, each pump having a desired flow rate.
  • the pumps are inflexible and the separate pumps required represent large capital investment.
  • an object of this invention is to provide an improved multi-channel peristaltic pump which has a single motor drive but is arranged to accommodate any given number of individual pump units, each of the units being arranged for operation from the single motor drive; the units being quickly and easily operatively associated or disassociated with the single motor drive.
  • Another object of this invention is to provide a pump of the character described, wherein the motor drive is located at one end of a casing having an open top portion, individual pump units being adapted to be removably arranged in any desired number in side by side relation in the open top portion of the casing, the motor drive including driving gear means and each pump unit including driven gear means for meshing with the driving gear means by merely locating the units in the open top portion of the casing.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a pump of the character described, wherein the individual pump units may be releasably locked on the casing for operation and readily unlocked to allow for removal of the selected pump units from the casing; or for positioning the pump units on the casing in an inoperative position thereof.
  • Still another object of the invention is to provide a pump of the character described, wherein the motor drive includes a pair of elongated drive gears arranged to rotate at respectively different speeds, each pump unit having driven gear means for meshing with one of the elongated gears in one position of the pump unit on the casing, or meshing with the other of the elongated gear means in another position of the pump unit on the casing, thereby providing variations on pump flow rates as well as any desired number of pumping channels.
  • Still another object of this invention is to provide improved individual peristaltic pumping units for use in a multi-channel pump having a casing and a single motor drive mounted thereon, such units including a peristaltic roller plate mounted between a pair of closely spaced plate members, together with a backing member removably disposed between the plate members and in opposed relation to the roller plate for receiving tubing therebetween; the roller plate having peripheral driven portions adapted to project below the lower edges of the plate members for driven engagement with the motor drive.
  • Yet another object of this invention is to provide individual pump assemblies of the character described which include latching means for locking engagement with the casing with which the units are associated to retain the units in selected operative or inoperative relationship to the casing.
  • Still a further object of this invention is to provide a multi-channel peristaltic pump having a single motor drive for operating a varied number of individual pump units; the individual pump units being removably mounted on a casing portion of the pump, thereby providing a high degree of flexibility in pumping varied flows of reagents or the like, as required; and further, such pump units having alternative positions on the casing portion of the pump to provide alternative pumping rates to thereby provide further flexibility in the operation of the pump as a whole.
  • Yet a further object of this invention is to provide a multi-channel peristaltic pump of the character described, which is of simple construction; which has but a single motor drive for a varied number of individual pumping units; the pumping units being of a construction and a mode of association with the motor drive as to make the mounting, removal, or interchange of the pumping units quick and easy; and resulting in a moderate cost measured in terms of the substantial and varied capacities of pumping units.
