  • Publication number: 20140072465
    Abstract: A bellows pump including in its pump case (5) a pair of plastic bellows (6) that expand and contract to alternatingly execute an output stroke that sends fluid out of pump chambers (7) defined by the bellows and a suction stroke that supplies fluid to the pump chambers. Metal actuation plates (10) are provided in the pump case so as to be movable in the axial direction, and these actuation plates are fixedly connected to the bottom walls (6a) of the bellows in peripheral portions thereof so that the opposed end faces (10c, 6g) of the actuation plates and fluid-contact portions (6f), which are at the center of the bottom walls of the bellows and come into contact with fluid in the pump chambers, are set in a close contact to each other. The close-contact portions are sealed by O-rings (15).

  • Patent number: 8613606
    Abstract: A bellows pump having a pump body including a suction path and a discharge path for a fluid and a bellows which is placed in a state where a basal end flange is airtightly fixed to the pump body to form a pump chamber with respect to the pump body. The bellows pump further comprises an actuation plate which is attached to a head portion of the bellows so as to cause the bellows to expand and contract with respect to the pump body. The bellows is further configured so that an airtight space is formed with between the actuation plate and a cup shape section formed in the head portion, such that a pressure rise can be absorbed and relaxed by contraction of the space portion caused by elastic film deformation of the thin head portion which faces the space portion.
