Pump assembly
A pump assembly includes a pump and a base. The pump has mounts located at multiple positions on the pump to effect different configurations of the assembly. Each mount includes two engagements spaced apart on the pump. The base has a retainer constructed to slidably engage one engagement and a seat constructed to support the other engagement. The seat has a socket with two holes extending into the base. A bracket includes a jaw engageable with the second engagement and two locking pins extending from the bracket for sliding engagement with the socket. The locking pins retain the bracket and jaw from moving away from the base. A fastener engages the bracket with the base so the two locking pins cannot slidably disengage the socket.
1. A pump assembly comprising
an air driven diaphragm pump with a housing, an intake port and an outlet port, the ports being adjacent one another on a periphery of the housing, the pump including at least two mounts, each mount including a pair of engagements spaced apart on the pump, the mounts being angularly displaced from one another;
a base including a retainer constructed to slidably engage a first engagement of the pair of engagements and a seat constructed to support a second engagement of the pair of engagements with the retainer slidably engaged with the first engagement of the pair of engagements, the seat having a socket;
a bracket including a jaw engageable with the second one of the pair of engagements and a locking pin having a surface facing the jaw and engageable with the socket;
a fastener engaged with the bracket and the base with the locking pin engaged with the socket;
the base having a central hole therethrough receiving the ports with the pump mounted to the base at a first of the at least two mounts, and having spaced cradle elements supporting the pump with the pump mounted to the base at a second of the at least two mounts with the ports angularly displaced from the central hole.
2. A pump assembly comprising
a pump including at least one mount, each mount including two engagements spaced apart on the pump;
a base including a retainer constructed to slidably engage a respective first engagement of the pair of engagements and a seat constructed to support a respective second engagement of the pair of engagements with the retainer slidably engaged with the first engagement of the pair of engagements, the seat having a post and a socket having two holes extending into the base, each of the two holes having an undercut section in the base;
a bracket including a channel, a jaw engageable with the second engagement of the pair of engagements and two locking pins extending from the bracket, each of the two locking pins having a lug with a surface facing the jaw and engageable in one of the holes with one of the undercut sections, respectively, the channel receiving the post with the socket holes receiving the locking pins, the bracket sliding on the seat with the channel positioned about the post, the second of the two engagements being fixed between the seat and the jaw with the lugs engaged with the undercut sections;
a fastener engaging the bracket and the post of the seat with the lugs engaged with the undercut sections.
3. The pump assembly of claim 2 , the fastener restraining the locking pins from lateral disengaging from the socket.
4. The pump assembly of claim 2 , the retainer and the jaw constructed to engage each of the respective engagements.
5. The pump assembly of claim 2 , the pump including two mounts, the mounts being perpendicular to one another.
6. The pump assembly of claim 5 , the pump being an air driven diaphragm pump with a housing, an intake port and an outlet port, the ports being adjacent one another on a periphery of the housing, the base having a central hole therethrough receiving the ports with the pump mounted to the base at a first of the two mounts and having spaced cradle elements supporting the pump with the pump mounted to the base at a second of the two mounts with the ports angularly displaced from the central hole.
