Abstract: A pump devoid of mobile mechanical parts and including a tank with a sleeve for dispensing fluid that remains fully open, but of which an inside capillary is too thin to allow for dispensing of fluid when idle. Recourse is therefore made to a resonator device with a piezoelectric exciter, that produces vibrations, in particular bending, of the sleeve to oblige the fluid to flow through it at a determined flow rate that depends on characteristics of the pump and of excitation. The assembly can be miniaturized and used as an implantable device, for example for treatment of hearing pathologies, to deliver a drug, or, in certain embodiments, also take samples of ambient fluid. A remote energy supply is possible.
