Abstract
Abstract A variable dosing piston pump having a cylinder made of two parts, the fixed part through which the piston rod extends and a part adapted to be inserted more or less within said fixed part and means to fix said parts relative to each other, an outlet in said fixed part for the dosed liquid, an inlet controlled by a non-return valve in said movable part, the piston having a diameter adapted to that of the movable part and comprising a non-return valve. By changing the positions of the two cylinder parts relative each other, and retaining the same piston movement, the effective stroke of the piston is changed, thereby changing the dosing.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
101 words
A variable dosing piston pump having a cylinder, a piston housed in said cylinder and a piston rod attached to said piston, the cylinder being made of two parts, namely a fixed part through which the piston rod extends and a movable part adapted to be inserted within said fixed part and means to fix said parts relative to each other, an outlet in said fixed part for the dosed liquid, an inlet controlled by a non-return valve in said movable part, the piston having a diameter corresponding to that of the movable part and said piston comprising a non-return valve.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
101 words
A variable dosing piston pump having a cylinder, a piston housed in said cylinder and a piston rod attached to said piston, the cylinder being made of two parts, namely a fixed part through which the piston rod extends and a movable part adapted to be inserted within said fixed part and means to fix said parts relative to each other, an outlet in said fixed part for the dosed liquid, an inlet controlled by a non-return valve in said movable part, the piston having a diameter corresponding to that of the movable part and said piston comprising a non-return valve.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
36 words
A variable dosing piston pump, as claimed in claim 1, wherein the non-return valve piston including an annular elastic slanted skirt disposed at the periphery of the piston, said skirt constituting a seal for the piston.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
32 words
A variable dosing piston pump as claimed in claim 1, wherein the non-return valve piston includes a check-valve within the piston and a O-ring seal disposed on the periphery of the piston.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
44 words
A variable dosing piston pump as claimed in claim 1 including a threaded annular flanged connector screwed onto said fixed part with a seal held by the flange to said movable part so that the parts are fixed in position relative to each other.
