A hydraulic device can include two or more rings, a rotor having a plurality of vanes, and an adjuster. The two or more rings can be rotatably mounted within the hydraulic device and arranged adjacent one another configured for relative rotation with respect to one another. The rotor can be disposed for rotation about an axis within the two or more rings and can have a plurality of circumferentially spaced slots, each slot having at least one of the plurality of vanes located therein. The plurality of vanes can be configured to be movable between a retracted position and an extended position where the plurality of vanes work a hydraulic fluid introduced adjacent to the rotor. The adjuster can be configured to translate linearly to rotatably position the two or more rings relative to one another to increase or decrease a displacement of the hydraulic fluid between the rotor and the two or more rings.

A high pressure delivery system for delivering a medicament, comprising a first chamber for storing a supply of the medicament, a gear pump assembly in fluid communication with the first chamber, said gear pump assembly having a dose inlet and a dose discharge, said dose inlet having a larger diameter than said dose discharge to provide a high pressure discharge, and a fluid connection path in fluid communication with the gear pump assembly for delivering the medicament to a high pressure area.

A high pressure delivery device for delivering a medicament includes a first chamber for storing a supply of the medicament and a second chamber in fluid communication with the first chamber. A fluid connection path is in fluid communication with the second chamber for administering the medicament. A valving system is in fluid communication with the first chamber, the second chamber and the fluid connection path. The valving system allows a dose of the medicament to be injected from the first chamber into the second chamber while substantially preventing backflow of the dose into the first chamber and substantially preventing leakage through the fluid connection path. The valving system also allows the dose in the second chamber to be administered through the fluid connection path while substantially preventing the dose from flowing back into the first chamber.

A rotary pump is presented for use in a medicament delivery device, where the pump has a back plate having an inner surface and a rotor housing is positioned adjacent to the back plate having a peripheral wall. A front plate support is connected to the back plate and a flexible front plate is positioned between the front plate support and the rotor housing. The pump is rotated using a planetary gear transmission, where an eccentric shaft is operatively connected to the planetary gear mechanism. A rotor is rotationally fixed to the eccentric shaft and movably positioned within rotor housing. The rotor has three lobes, where each lobe has two peripheral curved surfaces sharing a common apex, where a first portion of each peripheral surface adjacent to the apex defines a non-smooth curve.

An eccentric screw pump has at least one stator of elastic material and extending along an axis, a rotor rotatable about the axis in the stator, and an axially split stator housing at least partially surrounding the stator and, formed by at least two housing segments. A stator-clamping device presses the housing segments radially against the stator and thereby presses the stator against the rotor. It has one or more movable adjusting elements that bear radially inward on the housing segments for radially adjusting and clamping the stator and one or more actuators connected or provided with the adjusting elements for automatically positioning the housing segments.

A pump (10) comprising a casing (12) that encloses a pumping group (14). On the casing (12) at least one inlet conduit (F) and at least one outlet conduit are obtained. The pumping group (14) comprises a pair of mutually coupled gears defining a pump chamber. A first support shaft (16) is operatively connected to an actuator assembly (18) so that the first gear can operate as a driving gear to set the second gear in rotation. The pump (10) comprises at least one element (20) for compensating the increase in volume of the fluid (F) and/or the increase in the pressures inside such a pump (10). The element (20) for compensating the pressure/volume is at least partially manufactured from a shape memory metal alloy having superelastic properties.
