Abstract

A peristaltic pump includes a driver, a pump body, a hose, a rotor and a connecting member. The driver includes a supporting shaft. The pump body includes a chamber housing the rotor. The hose is assembled to an internal side of a wall of the chamber. The connecting member connects the driver with the rotor, and is received in the chamber. The rotor is configured to sequentially squeeze the hose to cause medium in the hose to flow. The connecting member and the rotor rotate about and are supported by the supporting shaft. The medical peristaltic pump has a simple structure and is easy to operate.

Claims (26)

1. A medical peristaltic pump, comprising:

a driver, comprising a supporting shaft;

a pump body, comprising a chamber;

a rotor received within the chamber;

a hose assembled to an internal side of a wall of the chamber; and

a connecting member connecting the driver with the rotor, and being received in the chamber;

wherein the rotor is configured to sequentially squeeze the hose to cause medium in the hose to flow, the supporting shaft supports the connecting member and the rotor, and the connecting member and the rotor are arranged to rotate about the supporting shaft, and wherein the rotor is detachably mounted to the connecting member, the connecting member comprises a plurality of latching claws, the rotor comprises a plurality of locking members, each latching claw is provided with a barb/a latching cutout, each locking member is provided with a latching cutout/a barb to latch with the corresponding barb/latching cutout, the rotor comprises a main body, the main body defines a receiving groove for the latching claw, the main body defines a guiding groove, the locking member being slidable within the guiding groove, a resilient member is provided between the locking member and the main body, the resilient member pushes the locking member to maintain the locking member in a position which allows the latching cutout/barb of the locking member to latch with the corresponding barb/latching cutout.

2. The pump of claim 1 , wherein the rotor comprises a sliding block capable of sliding relative to the main body, a roller assembled to a terminal end of the block, and a spring arranged to move the sliding block radially outwardly to urge the roller into contact with the hose.

3. The pump of claim 2 , wherein the main body comprises at least one positioning surface, the sliding block defines at least one abutting surface, the abutting surface of the sliding block engages with the corresponding positioning surface of the main body, thereby positioning the sliding block.

4. The pump of claim 1 , wherein the pump body further comprises a cover for covering the chamber, and an electromagnetic locking mechanism is provided between the cover and the chamber.

5. The pump of claim 4 , wherein one of the cover and the chamber is equipped with a permanent magnet, the other one is equipped with a sensor, and the sensor interacts with the magnet to sense an open or close state of the cover.

6. The pump of claim 1 , wherein the connecting member is provided with at least one step to position the rotor axially relative to the chamber.

7. The pump of claim 1 , wherein the pump body further comprises a cover configured to cover the chamber, the cover is connected to the chamber by a hinge.

8. The pump of claim 1 , wherein the driver comprises an electric motor and a gear reduction mechanism, the gear reduction mechanism comprises an output gear, the output gear is disposed outside the chamber and fixedly connected to the connecting member.

9. The pump of claim 1 , wherein the rotor comprises a cover plate, and the cover plate has a handle for manual rotation of the rotor.

10. A medical peristaltic pump, comprising:

a driver comprising a supporting shaft;

a pump body comprising a chamber;

a rotor received within the chamber;

a hose assembled to an internal side of a wall of the chamber; and

a connecting member connecting the driver with the rotor, and being received in the chamber;

wherein the rotor is configured to sequentially squeeze the hose to cause medium in the hose to flow, the connecting member and the rotor are driven by the driver to rotate about the supporting shaft, the rotor comprises a main body and at least two locking members slidably coupled to the main body, the connecting member comprises at least two latching claws to latch the corresponding locking members, and a resilient member is provided between the main body and each locking member to push the locking member to latch with the corresponding latching claw.

11. The pump of claim 10 , wherein the rotor comprises a sliding block capable of sliding relative to the main body, a roller assembled to a terminal end of the block, and a spring arranged to move the sliding block radially outwardly to urge the roller into contact with the hose.

12. The pump of claim 11 , wherein the main body comprises at least one positioning surface, the sliding block defines at least one abutting surface, the abutting surface of the sliding block engages with the corresponding positioning surface of the main body, thereby positioning the sliding block.

13. The pump of claim 10 , wherein the connecting member is provided with at least one step to position the rotor axially relative to the chamber.

14. The pump of claim 10 , wherein the driver comprises an electric motor and a gear reduction mechanism, the gear reduction mechanism comprises an output gear, the output gear is disposed outside the chamber and fixedly connected to the connecting member.
