Bellows pump with extension having integral valves

Claim 2

A fluid pump comprising: a variable volume, axially collapsible resilient bellows closed at one end and open at the other end; means for closing said open end, said means including a non-collapsible extension; an inlet port and an outlet port in said extension; and a pressure-responsive flexible valve for each of said input and output ports, a respective valve closing said input port and opening said output port in response to a pressure increase within said variable volume, and closing said output port and opening said input port in response to a decrease in pressure within said volume, said valves being integral with said extension.

Claim 3

The invention as defined in claim 1 wherein said extension comprises first and second opposed tabs extending from the open end of said bellows, said first tab having said inlet port, said second tab having said outlet port, said flexible valves being integral with said tabs, one of said valves being positioned outside of said volume, other of said valves being located inside of said volume.

Claim 4

The invention as defined in claim 2 wherein said extension is integral with said bellows.

Claim 5

The invention as defined in claim 3 wherein the distal ends of said extensions are joined.

Claim 6

The invention as defined in claim 4 wherein said valves are flaps.

Claim 7

A pump comprising: a body having a chamber therein and an inlet duct and an outlet duct in communication with said chamber, said chamber having an opening through a wall of said body; a variable volume device including a resilient collapsible bellows having non-collapsible extension, sad extension projecting into said chamber through said opening, and closing of said opening; an inlet port and an outlet port in said extension; a first flap integral with said extension for closing said inlet port in response to an increase in pressure within said volume; and a second flap for closing said output port in response to a decrease in pressure within said volume.

Claim 8

A pump comprising: a body having a chamber therein and an inlet duct and an outlet duct in communication with said chamber, said chamber having an opening through a wall of said body; a variable volume device including a resilient collapsible bellows having non-collapsible extension, sad extension projecting into said chamber through said opening, and closing of said opening; an inlet port and an outlet port in said extension; a first flap integral with said extension for closing said inlet port in response to an increase in pressure within said volume; and a second flap for closing said output port in response to a decrease in pressure within said volume.

Claim 9

The invention as defined in claim 6 wherein said body is connected to a bottle cap.

Claim 10

The invention as defined in claim 7 wherein a tube connected to said inlet duct projects through said bottle cap.

Claim 11

The invention as defined in claim 8 wherein said bottle cap is provided with vent.

Claim 12

The invention as defined in claim 9 wherein said body has an opening by a plug, said plug extending through said cap, said plug having a flange for retaining said cap.

Claim 13

The invention as defined in claim 10 wherein said vent comprises an annular groove in said plug, and a hole extending from said groove through said plug

Claim 14

The invention as defined in claim 11 wherein said groove communicates with a duct through said body.

Claim 15

The invention as defined in claim 12 and a trigger pivoted from said body for axially collapsing said variable volume device.

Claim 16

The invention as defined in claim 13 and means for disabling said trigger to prevent movement of said trigger to collape said bellows.

Claim 17

The invention as defined in claim 14 wherein said trigger closes said duct when said trigger is disabled.
