Abstract: A micro-dosing pump includes a pump chamber substrate, a flexible membrane, a fluid line, a valve disk, a magnetizable actuator disk, and a drive unit. The pump chamber substrate has a pump chamber. The flexible membrane is on a first side of the pump chamber substrate and covers the pump chamber in a fluid-tight manner. The fluid line is on a second side of the pump chamber substrate such that fluid can enter and leave the pump chamber. The valve disk, arranged inside the pump chamber, has a fluid through-opening and is configured to close the fluid line by rotating and to open it via the through-opening. The actuator disk is coupled to the valve disk such that rotating the actuator disk rotates the valve disk. The drive unit has a pump plunger configured to move the membrane for suction or ejection of fluid and to rotate the actuator disk.

The electrical contact elements are brought into sliding contact with the electrical conducting tracks in order to transmit electrical energy.

Abstract: In a method for welding a first component having a channel to a second component, a lower surface of the first component is placed onto an upper surface of the second component, and a laser beam is transmitted through the first component and guided along a trajectory across the upper surface of the second component. The second component absorbs the laser beam along the irradiated trajectory, so that the irradiated trajectory of the second component is welded to the lower surface of the component in the form of a welding path. The channel has a rounded surface in a plane in which the laser beam is guided. The rounded surface is configured in such a way that a predefined power density of the laser beam is present at the upper surface, so that a continuous welding path is provided along the irradiated trajectory between the two components.
