In the piezoelectric ceramic air pump and the construction method thereof according to the first preferred embodiment as illustrated in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, a spacer 14 that is configured to support and isolate the upper and lower piezoelectric ceramic crystal diaphragms and parallel thereto is provided in the pump body 10, wherein an opening 16 is provided on the spacer 14 in the vicinity of the air inlet and outlet valves, such that the working pump chamber 15 is shared by the upper and lower piezoelectric ceramic crystal diaphragms; and the upper and lower piezoelectric ceramic crystal diaphragms are laminated on the spacer 14 respectively via a third sealing ring 55 and a fourth sealing ring 57, and seal and enclose the pump body 10 via the opening 16 to construct the working pump chamber 15 with a cross section in the shape of a horizontal U. The opening 16 is provided on the spacer 14 in the vicinity of the air inlet and outlet valves, such that the dead cavity of the shared working pump chamber 15 is reduced and the pumping efficiency is improved.

In a piezoelectric ceramic air pump and a construction method thereof according to a second preferred embodiment as illustrated in FIG. 12 to FIG. 14, an annular boss 12 that supports the upper and lower piezoelectric ceramic crystal diaphragms and inwardly protrudes is coaxially arranged on an inner wall of the pump body 10, and the upper and lower piezoelectric ceramic crystal diaphragms are laminated on the annular boss 12 via a third sealing ring 55 and a fourth sealing ring 57, and seal and enclose the pump body 10 to construct the working pump chamber 15 in the shape of an oval.

In the first and second preferred embodiments, the upper pump cover 21 and the lower pump cover 23 are respectively laminated and fixedly connected onto the pump body 10 via a fifth sealing ring 25 and a sixth sealing ring 27.

In a third preferred embodiment of the piezoelectric ceramic air pump as illustrated in FIG. 1 to FIG. 5, only one piezoelectric ceramic crystal diaphragm 50 is mounted, and the piezoelectric ceramic crystal diaphragm 50 is fitted and fixed onto the pump body 10 via the lower pump cover 23, and seals and encloses the pump body 10 to construct the working pump chamber 15.

The method further comprises: simultaneously compressing towards each other or expansion-wise axially moves away from each other by the upper and lower piezoelectric ceramic crystal diaphragms within each power source semi-cycle when an alternating current excitation voltage is applied to the upper and lower piezoelectric ceramic crystal diaphragms. The arrangement of the piezoelectric ceramic crystal diaphragm and the manner of applying the alternating current excitation voltage greatly increase the extrusion efficiency of the fluid in the working pump chamber under extrusion by the diaphragm.

In the prior art, the piezoelectric ceramic air pump has a small flow rate which is generally between 0.3 L/min and 0.5 L/min. The piezoelectric ceramic air pump in the technical solution of the present invention has a reasonable deployment of air passages, and thus the operating efficiency of the air pump is improved. Therefore, the piezoelectric ceramic air pump according to the present invention is a highly efficient miniature air pump. A sample designed according to the solution of a preferred embodiment of the present invention is compared with a conventional piezoelectric ceramic air pump in the prior art under the same conditions. The comparison test, as listed in Table 1, reveals that although the desired sample has two piezoelectric ceramic diaphragms, the actual power consumption is two-fold lower than that of a single piezoelectric ceramic diaphragm, and the output flow rate is two-fold greater than that of the single piezoelectric ceramic crystal diaphragm.
