Description

A PUMP
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a pump where liquids can be pressured without needing usage of mechanical parts.
PRIOR ART
Pumps are machines which transform electrical energy into hydraulic energy and which move liquid by means of mechanical power. In other words, pumps provide stationary liquids to be pressurized and become movable. For providing this, mechanical parts are moved by means of the drive received from electrical motor, and the liquid displaces and pressurized by means of this movement.
The general problem with the pumps is the continuous energy need for operation and the maintenance need due to deformation of mechanical parts by time.
In the application with number KR20080126391 , a pump is provided which provides spraying of disinfectant by producing osmotic pressure with the help of liquids which have different electrolyte densities.
The national patent application with number TR2020/02107 relates to magnetically combined pump arrangement. This pump arrangement comprises an inner area formed by a pump casing; a separation receptacle which hermetically seals the chamber according to the inner area formed by means of the pump arrangement; a wheel shaft driven around a rotation axis in a rotatable manner; a wheel arranged at one end of the wheel shaft, an inner rotor arranged at an end of the wheel shaft; an auxiliary wheel assembled to the chamber; and an outer rotor which functions together with the inner rotor. As seen in the pump mentioned here, the pump comprises pluralities of movable elements, and the pump is driven by the motor. This increases the maintenance and operation costs of the pump.
In the application with number US20110184389A1 , an apparatus and a method are described which utilize osmotic pressure for pumping liquids like liquid medicines. The invention provides an osmotic pump liquid distribution apparatus comprising items designed for controlling liquid distribution proportion. The typical arrangements of the invention comprise an arrangement of elements like dissolving reservoirs which can change the dissolving substance concentrations in compartments of an osmotic pump, and an inner osmotic compartment for controlling liquid transfer from the pump. It is seen that this osmotic pump is driven by an external pump in order to operate at the mentioned conditions.
As a result, because of the abovementioned problems and because of the insufficiency of the present solutions about the subject, an improvement is required in the related technical field.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a pump, for eliminating the abovementioned disadvantages and for bringing new advantages to the related technical field.
An object of the present invention is to provide a pump where liquids can be pressured without needing usage of mechanical parts.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a pump which can increase the pressure of solutions which have electrical conductivity.
In order to realize the abovementioned objects and the objects which are to be deducted from the detailed description below, the present invention relates to a pump. Accordingly, the subject matter pump comprises a primary medium associated with an input port of an ejector, a secondary medium associated with a suctioning port, a primary electrode provided in said primary medium, a secondary electrode provided in said secondary medium, a power supply associated to said primary electrode and said secondary electrode, an ion selective membrane and a pressure retaining membrane which separate the primary medium and the secondary medium from each other. Thus, the solution with equal density is pressured by displacing between the first medium and the second medium and is pumped by means of the ejector.
In another possible embodiment of the present invention, solution with equal density which has electrical conductivity is provided in said primary medium and in said secondary medium.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES
In Figure 1 , a representative schematic view of the subject matter pump is given. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
In this detailed description, the subject matter pump (10) is explained with references to examples without forming any restrictive effect only in order to make the subject more understandable.
In the subject matter pump (10), there is a primary medium (11) and a secondary medium (12) wherein liquids having electrical conductivity and provided with equal density are positioned. The primary medium (11) and the secondary medium (12) are separated from each other by means of at least one ion selective membrane (30) and at least one pressure retaining membrane (40). Moreover, there is at least one primary electrode (21) provided in the primary medium (11 ), and there is at least one secondary electrode (22) provided in the secondary medium (12). Said primary electrode (21) and said secondary electrode (22) are connected to each other by means of a power supply (20). The pump (10) moreover has an ejector (50). An input port (51) of said ejector (50) is associated with the primary medium
(11), and a suctioning port (52) of said ejector (50) is associated with the secondary medium
(12).
In said embodiment, current is applied to the primary electrode (21) and to the secondary electrode (22) by the power supply (20). Here, said current can be provided from solutions which have electrical conductivity. Thanks to this current, an ion flow is formed between the primary medium (11) and the secondary medium (12) by means of the ion selective membrane (30). In more details, when the primary electrode (21) provided in the primary medium (11 ) is connected to the negative end (-) and when the secondary electrode (22) provided in the secondary medium (12) is connected to the positive end (+), ion passage takes place from the secondary medium (12) to the primary medium (11 ) by means of the ion selective membrane (30). Thus, density difference occurs between the two sides. Depending on this, solvent passage takes place from the less dense medium to the denser medium by means of the pressure retaining membrane (40). Since much more solution passage occurs when compared with ion passage, an osmotic pressure occurs. A flow occurs towards the input port (51 ) of the ejector (50) by means of the pressure which occurs in the primary medium (11). Meanwhile, solution is suctioned from the secondary medium (12), where the suctioning port (52) of the ejector (50) is connected, in accordance with the operation principles of ejectors (50). Thus, the solution coming from the primary medium (11) and suctioned from the secondary medium (12) is joined and is pumped through an output port (53) of the ejector (50). Since the solutions coming from the primary medium (11) and coming from the secondary medium (12) join in the ejector (50), a solution with the density, which exists at the beginning, is pumped by the ejector (50).
In said embodiment, the formed pressure and the solution amount pumped from the ejector (50) can be adjusted by changing the intensity of the electrical current applied from the power supply (20).
Since there is no movable part in the subject matter pump (10), the probability of deformation by time is eliminated, and a pump (10) is obtained which has long lifetime and which does not need maintenance.
The protection scope of the present invention is set forth in the annexed claims and cannot be restricted to the illustrative disclosures given above, under the detailed description. It is because a person skilled in the relevant art can obviously produce similar embodiments under the light of the foregoing disclosures, without departing from the main principles of the present invention.
