Abstract

Abstract A hose pump comprising a number of movable pressure elements composed of a first pressure device and a second pressure device. The first pressure device is constituted by an element which is movable to-and-fro with respect to a counter pressure surface and the second pressure device contains elements movable to-and-fro with respect to a hose. The pressure devices are arranged next to one another and are driven by a common drive, in order to rhythmically compress the hose within two neighboring regions. The drive comprises cam discs structured to correspond to the number of pressure elements, the apex of crown points of the cam discs being mutually offset with respect to one another, in order to rhythmically compress the hose which is placed in the hose pump, and thus, to convey the medium which is to be pumped.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 192 words
A hose pump for conveying a fluid medium through a hose comprising a plurality of movable pressure elements consisting of a first set of pressure members and a second set of pressure members, a common drive means for activating said first and second sets of pressure members in order to progressively change the cross-sectional are of the hose along its length successively in two directions situated transversely with respect to one another, and means defining a counter pressure surface and said first pressure members are movable to-and-fro with respect to the counter pressure surface, wherein: each first pressure member is a plate of substantially rectangular shape, two pins are provided at a side of each said plate which bear against an adjacent second pressure member, each said second pressure member comprising a bifurcated part having a yoke and two legs, the free end portions of which define two elements movable to-and-fro with respect to the hose, each of the legs having an intermediate portion directed towards one another and said pins being against inner surfaces of said intermediate portions in order to continuously alter the spacing between free end of said legs.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 192 words
A hose pump for conveying a fluid medium through a hose comprising a plurality of movable pressure elements consisting of a first set of pressure members and a second set of pressure members, a common drive means for activating said first and second sets of pressure members in order to progressively change the cross-sectional are of the hose along its length successively in two directions situated transversely with respect to one another, and means defining a counter pressure surface and said first pressure members are movable to-and-fro with respect to the counter pressure surface, wherein: each first pressure member is a plate of substantially rectangular shape, two pins are provided at a side of each said plate which bear against an adjacent second pressure member, each said second pressure member comprising a bifurcated part having a yoke and two legs, the free end portions of which define two elements movable to-and-fro with respect to the hose, each of the legs having an intermediate portion directed towards one another and said pins being against inner surfaces of said intermediate portions in order to continuously alter the spacing between free end of said legs.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 63 words
The hose pump as defined in claim 1, further including: two guide elements provided for the first pressure member; said common drive means comprising a drive shaft; cam disc means secured to said drive shaft, in order to displace each first pressure member against the counter pressure surface; and said hose being insertable between the counter pressure surface and said first pressure member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 54 words
The hose pump as defined in claim 1, wherein: each second pressure member is formed of an elastic material; the free ends of each said leg members being structured to possess portions which extend essentially parallel to one another and almost are situated next to one another and between which the hose is insertable.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 88 words
The hose pump as defined in claim 1, further including frame means in which there are arranged said pressure elements and said drive means, a cover, hinging means for pivotable mounting said cover at said frame means; wherein said cover has an inner surface, a lifting device comprising two bars arranged transversely with respect to said first pressure members and two rod means, each connected with said cover and each connected to said bars such that all of said first pressure members are raised upon opening said cover.
