PROGRAMMABLE BREASTPUMP

摘要

A breastpump (fig. 1) which can be programmed to generate, among other thing s, a plurality of differing milk expression (extraction) sequence, or curves is disclosed. In one embodiment of the invention, a motorized pump (e.g., compressed air, battery and/or house current) (fig. 17) is provided with a microprocessor-based controller (60). Cards (figs. 11-14), with microprocess or "chip" (61), containing different suction curves adapted for varying conditi on and objectives are included for programming the controller in this embodimen t.
