Abstract: The present disclosure may relate to a pump including a centerless rim, a first roller guide shaped to roll along the centerless rim such that as the first roller guide is rotated, friction between the first roller guide and the centerless rim causes a corresponding rotation of the centerless rim. The pump may also include a second roller guide shaped to roll along the centerless rim, and a plurality of peristaltic rollers coupled to the centerless rim. The pump may additionally include a tube housing disposed proximate the plurality of peristaltic rollers, and a tube disposed between the tube housing and the peristaltic rollers such that as the centerless rim is rotated, the peristaltic rollers compress the tube against the tube housing to create negative pressure within the tube.

Abstract: The present disclosure may relate to centerless wheel assembly that includes a centerless rim including a first center point laying in a first plane generally defined by the centerless rim. The centerless wheel assembly may also include a centerless ring gear coupled to the centerless rim such that rotation of the centerless ring gear causes a corresponding rotation of the centerless rim. The centerless ring gear may include a second center point laying in a second plane generally defined by the centerless ring gear, and the first plane may be generally parallel to the second plane. Additionally, the centerless ring gear may be shaped to interface with a drive gear that drives the centerless ring gear.
