- ten dynamic pressure grooves 21 are arranged at an equal angle with respect to the central axis of the impeller 10. Since the dynamic pressure groove 21 has a so-called inward spiral groove shape, when the impeller 10 rotates in the clockwise direction, the liquid pressure increases from the outer diameter portion to the inner diameter portion of the dynamic pressure groove 21. For this reason, a repulsive force is generated between the impeller 10 and the partition wall 6, and this becomes a dynamic pressure.

- each of the dynamic pressure grooves 21 and 22 has an inward spiral groove shape, but other shapes of the dynamic pressure grooves 21 and 22 can also be used. However, when blood is circulated, it is preferable to employ the inward spiral groove-shaped dynamic pressure grooves 21 and 22 that allow blood to flow smoothly.
- the attraction force F1 between the permanent magnets 15 and 16 is set smaller than the attraction force F2 between the permanent magnet 17 and the magnetic body 18, and the floating position of the impeller 10 at which the resultant force becomes zero is from the middle of the impeller movable range.

Further, the shapes of the dynamic pressure grooves 21 and 22 are the same. In this case, the support rigidity with respect to the floating position of the impeller 10 is higher than in the case of FIG. Since the net force F5 acting on the impeller 10 is zero at the center of the movable range, the impeller 10 floats at the center position when no disturbance force acts on the impeller 10.
