  • Publication number: 20230117890
    Abstract: A medical fluid pump, such as a syringe pump or infusion pump, includes a housing, a front flap hinged to a front side of the housing, and a carrying handle pivotally connected to opposite first and second side surfaces. The carrying handle is pivotable from a storage position to a carrying position in which the carrying handle is disposed above the housing. A plurality of electrical and mechanical components, which are contained within the housing, are necessary for all of the intended functions of the medical fluid pump. A selection of components from the electrical and mechanical components are provided as tare elements, placed within the housing such that a center of gravity of the medical fluid pump is substantially below the carrying handle in the carrying position.
