  • Patent number: 4718894
    Abstract: The invention concerns a sequential and manually actuated feed device for implantation in an accessible subcutaneous region of a patient for the purpose of sequentially dosing a liquid, in particular a therapeutant. This device comprises a reservoir consisting of a flexible pouch, a filling site (2) located at the rim of said pouch in order to inject the liquid into it, and a manual pump (3) located in the opposite zone of the pouch in order to supply the liquid dose by dose to a catheter (20). The pump has a rigid case with a recess and bearing an expulsion membrane so as to bound a volume chamber; safety means prevent any accidental injection in the event of a spurious pressure exerted on the flexible pouch.
