Disclosed is an embodiment that introduces a novel system to pump fluids, or, gases or, semi-solids, or, solids, from one place to another. Conventionally, a motorized pump systems are used to pump any given fluid from one position to another, nonetheless, in this invention not only a new system of pumping fluids is so introduced, but, existing functions of a conventional motorized pumping systems are saliently augmented by the pipe pump system. The pipe pump functions basically, by a series of electromagnets, that are placed around a flexible and resilient tube, (a rubber tube, for instance), and when these said electromagnet arrangements are actuated, then, that causes the pipe pump to pump out fluids, by squeezing on the fluids, or gases, contained within.

A fluororubber tube is provided, which is formed from a rubber composition containing a fluororubber, and not less than 3.8 parts by mass and not greater than 4.1 parts by mass of a polyol crosslinking agent and not less than 3 parts by mass and not greater than 7 parts by mass of a carbon black based on 100 parts by mass of the fluororubber. Thus, the fluororubber tube is made less tacky by suppressing the intrinsic adhesiveness of the crosslinked fluororubber without formation of a coating film which may otherwise complicate the structure of the tube and the production process of the tube or may result in contamination.

A kit for use with a recirculating cooling system includes a bag. The bag includes a first wall, a second wall opposite the first wall, and a side wall defining a reservoir configured to retain a fluid therein. A first port is defined through the first wall and a second port is defined through the side wall or the second wall. The bag is configured to maximize a temperature differential between a fluid proximate the first port and a fluid proximate the second port. Further, the bag is collapsible.

A sterile liquid pump, having replaceable single use components, with a first and second chamber, and a gas valve assembly to selectively communicate gas pressure and vacuum with the chambers, and a resilient tubing liquid manifold loop with a sequence of four ports located within a manifold receiver that supports four pinch actuators aligned to engage and selectively pinch-off flow through the manifold between adjacent pairs ports, and, a controller that operates the valve assembly to alternatingly couple pressure and vacuum to the pump chambers, and that also operates to alternatingly actuate pairs of the pinch actuators to sequentially pump fluid from pump chambers under gas pressure, and through an opposing pair of ports in the resilient tubing manifold.

A piezoelectric driving device includes: a piezoelectric vibrating body which includes a plurality of piezoelectric elements each formed of a first electrode, a second electrode, and a piezoelectric body positioned between the first electrode and the second electrode, and is disposed at least one surface of the first surface and the second surface of the vibrating plate, wherein the plurality of piezoelectric elements are connected in series.

A peristaltic pump head includes a housing assembly adapted for mounting to a drive mechanism, a roller assembly arranged with the housing assembly and a flexible conduit extending through the housing assembly and engageable by the roller assembly to impel fluid therethrough. The roller assembly and the flexible conduit are removable from the housing assembly without disconnecting the entire housing assembly from the drive mechanism. The roller assembly can include an axially extending drive shaft, a roller control body fixedly mounted to the drive shaft, at least a first end plate rotatably mounted about the drive shaft, and at least a first roller arm pivotably mounted to the first end plate. The flexible conduit can include a length of hollow tubing made of an elastomeric material, and at least one overmolded end fitting made of a rigid polymeric material and fused to an end of the hollow tubing.

A filter element for a fuel filter has first and second end plates and a particle filter medium arranged between the first and second end plates. A bayonet protrusion on the first end plate is designed to engage a bayonet receptacle of the filter housing by rotation of the filter element about a filter element longitudinal axis. An internal sealing element on the second end plate is designed to separate a raw side from a water collecting chamber of the fuel filter. The filter housing has a filter housing body and a cover screwed onto the filter housing body. The filter housing has a bayonet receptacle arranged on its inner side. By rotating the filter element about a filter element longitudinal axis of the filter element, the bayonet protrusion engages the bayonet receptacle of the filter housing when the cover is unscrewed from the filter housing body.

The invention relates to a peristaltic pump (6) for a household electric appliance comprising a pump body (60) defining a chamber (68) in which a deformable hose is located (63), which is intended to contain a liquid to be moved, characterized in that the peristaltic pump (6) comprises a sealing device (661, 662, 663) designed to contain the liquid inside the chamber (68) in the event of rupture of the deformable hose (63).
