Conveying device for a fluid using an oscillating body arrangement

摘要

The invention relates to a conveying device for conveying a fluid in a conveying direction having one or more drive bodies which can be driven in an oscillating manner by means of a drive system transversely to the conveying direction. An acceleration of the fluid is achieved by a corresponding movement in translation or by a partially pivoting movement of the drive bodies in the manner of the fin principle known from biology (e.g. aerodynamics and hydrodynamics).

主权项

1. A conveying device for the conveying of blood in a conveying direction having at least one drive body which can be driven by a drive system and which has a conveying surface, the drive body having a thickened upstream end and a tapered downstream, elastically deformable end, wherein the drive body can be driven in an oscillating, fin-like manner transversely to the conveying direction and is flowed around on a plurality of sides by blood to be conveyed, and wherein the drive body can be compressed together with a housing surrounding it.
