Abstract: The invention relates to a double diaphragm pump having flexible diaphragms disposed in displacement spaces and connected and mechanically coupled to piston rods, the displacement spaces being communicated via check valves to a suction manifold on the one hand and to a pressure manifold on the other hand, wherein each diaphragm is connected to a piston rod, which piston rods extend coaxially and are mounted on opposite sides to a guide frame having at least one lineal guide for a guide block which rotatably mounts a crank pin of a crankshaft.
