  2. Diaphragm pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaphragm_pump

    A diaphragm pump (also known as a Membrane pump) is a positive displacement pump that uses a combination of the reciprocating action of a rubber, thermoplastic or teflon diaphragm and suitable valves on either side of the diaphragm (check valve, butterfly valves, flap valves, or any other form of shut-off valves) to pump a fluid. There are ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaphragm_(mechanical_device)

    A diaphragm pump uses a diaphragm to pump a fluid. A typical design is to have air on one side constantly vary in pressure, with fluid on the other side. The increase and decrease in volume caused by the action of the diaphragm alternately forces fluid out the chamber and draws more fluid in from its source.

  4. Hand pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_pump

    Diaphragm pumps have the advantage that they pump relatively lightly due to the lack of pulling rods and are corrosion resistant. Their disadvantage is that they need a specific length of tubing and high quality rubber diaphragms, which are costly and are relatively inefficient due to the extra work needed to deform the diaphragm.

  5. Pump - Wikipedia

    Diaphragm pump – similar to plunger pumps, where the plunger pressurizes hydraulic oil which is used to flex a diaphragm in the pumping cylinder. Diaphragm valves are used to pump hazardous and toxic fluids. Piston pump displacement pumps – usually simple devices for pumping small amounts of liquid or gel manually. The common hand soap ...

  6. Reciprocating pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocating_pump

    Reciprocating pump attached to a Windmill on a farm. A reciprocating pump is a class of positive-displacement pumps that includes the piston pump, plunger pump, and diaphragm pump. Well maintained, reciprocating pumps can last for decades. Unmaintained, however, they can succumb to wear and tear.

  7. Micropump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micropump

    A diaphragm micropump uses the repeated actuation of a diaphragm to drive a fluid. The membrane is positioned above a main pump valve, which is centered between inlet and outlet microvalves. When the membrane is deflected upwards through some driving force, fluid is pulled into the inlet valve into the main pump valve.
