Peristaltic pump and pumping method, in particular for use as implant

摘要

A pump having at least a fluid pump chamber (11) and a first driver chamber (12) separated from the fluid pump chamber (11) by an elastic wall (13, 13-1,13-2) is described with the first driver chamber (12) expanding after a chemical reaction between fuel and oxidant and driving through deformation of the elastic wall fluid out of the fluid pump chamber (11), with the main parts of the pump being made of an elastic material to be used for example as a body implant.
