  • Patent number: 7556480
    Abstract: A fluid pump comprising a plurality of piston cylinders (1, 2, 3, 4), wherein each individual cylinder has a piston rod (5, 6, 7, 8) with a piston (9, 10, 11, 12) arranged in the cylinder and a valve housing (13, 14, 15, 16) mounted at the end of the cylinder opposite the piston rod, and a drive arrangement for the piston rods, said drive arrangement comprising two main gearwheels (17, 18) which mesh and rotate in opposite directions. The present fluid pump is characterized in that the reciprocating motion of the piston rods (5, 6, 7, 8), which extend in pairs in opposite directions, is effected with the aid of two beams (19, 20) that are fixed to the end of the respective pair of piston rods opposite the pistons (9, 10, 11, 12), and which extend at right angles relative to the piston rods, and that the beams are connected to the main gearwheels (17 18) by shaft pins (21, 22, 22, 23) which move in pairs in guides (24) provided in the longitudinal direction of the respective beam.
