A dispenser, which has a pump chamber formed by a body including a depression, and a lid body covering an opening of the body, where a liquid in the pump chamber is discharged front a nozzle portion by performing a discharge operation that presses the lid body toward an inside of the pump chamber to deform the lid body, and a liquid is caused to flow into the pump chamber when the discharge operation is released. A coil spring that urges the lid body to an outside of the pump chamber is included in the pump chamber, a diameter of the coil spring is larger than a radius of the lid body, and a deformation amount of the lid body is equal to or more than ⅓ of a diameter of the lid body.

A monitoring method and dosing pump system monitor operation of a dosing pump including a dosing chamber (2), a displacement element (4) and an electric drive (12). A position (S) of the displacement element and a pressure (P) inside the dosing chamber are continuously recorded as a curve in a pressure-stroke diagram. The method includes monitoring at least one characteristic portion (36, 38, 40, 42, B, C) of the curve in the pressure-stroke diagram by detecting a possible shift (A) of the characteristic portion over several strokes. The method further includes one or both of: adjusting a control of the electric drive based on the detected shift; and determining a trend of the shift over several strokes of the displacement element and determining based on the trend whether and/or when the shift will reach a predefined limit. A dosing pump system with the dosing pump execute the method.

A resin member capable of inhibiting generation of particles due to repeated bending thereof is provided. A rolling diaphragm 5 composed of a resin member has one surface formed as a liquid contact surface 37a, repeatedly bends when used, and has flexibility. A surface roughness of the liquid contact surface 37a at a portion 371 that bends is less than 0.40 μm as an arithmetic average roughness, and a total light reflectance of the liquid contact surface 37a at the portion 371 that bends is not less than 2.0%.

A single-arm micro air-pressure pump device, having an air pump body and a driving unit. The air pump body includes a supporting frame, an air chamber unit coupled to a side of the supporting frame, and a swing arm provided on the air chamber unit. The driving unit is fixed on the supporting frame and has an output shaft. The output shaft is provided with an eccentric shaft and is configured to rotate the eccentric shaft, and the eccentric shaft has an end coupled to the output shaft and an opposite end coupled to the swing arm in order to drive the swing arm into a reciprocating motion between at least a proximal position and a distal position with respect to the air chamber unit. The reciprocating motion pushes a piston unit provided on one end of the swing arm and causes the air output.

A double diaphragm pump includes multiple diaphragms that are mounted for reciprocation. The diaphragms are connected for simultaneous movement to form a diaphragm assembly. A first one of the diaphragms is clamped between a housing cover and a center section. A pumping chamber is formed between the first diaphragm and the cover. Pressure in the first pumping chamber is decreased to draw the diaphragm assembly towards the first fluid cover, thereby drawing the second diaphragm into a mounting position relative to the center section. A second cover is then mounted to the center section to clamp the second diaphragm between the second cover and the center section.

A method produces a porous, arched aluminum fluidization element for a diaphragm pump for fluidizing, covering and delivering pulverized products, such as pulverized coal, using inert gas at pressures of up to 7 MPa. The fluidization element ensures that fluidizing gas is supplied and homogeneously distributed in the pump lower region, and the contour of the space for pulverized materials may be advantageously designed in the diaphragm deflection area and optionally adapted to the diaphragm guide rod. In this way, a homogeneous and reversible deformation of the diaphragm is obtained with minor wear as far as possible. At the end of the delivery process of the diaphragm pump, the diaphragm is applied to the arched, half-shell-shaped fluidization surface in an extensively flat manner, and a small dead volume can be obtained, which results in minimal space for pulverized materials with a high delivery rate and little high-pressure gas loss.

An aerosol-generating device includes a pump. The pump includes a first pump chamber and a second pump chamber on opposing sides of a separation element. Each of the first pump chamber and the second pump chamber have an inlet valve and an outlet valve configured to establish a pumping direction. The pump also includes a first actuator and a second actuator. The first actuator is associated with the first pump chamber and the second actuator is associated with the second pump chamber. The first actuator and the second actuator are each configured to change a chamber volume of the respective pump chamber. The pump further includes a common inlet, and a common outlet. The common inlet and common outlet are in fluid communication with the first pump chamber and the second pump chamber and are configured to establish a flow direction. The pumping direction is aligned with the flow direction.
