<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid supply device and a liquid transport system capable of transporting any kind of liquids. <P>SOLUTION: An electroosmotic pump is employed in this system. In the inside of the electroosmotic pump 10A, a driven liquid 15 which develops an electroosmotic phenomenon, and a transport liquid 31 movable in noncontact manner by means of a valve 33 in consequence upon movement of the driven liquid 15 are filled. In this case, liquid capable of passing through the electroosmotic material 16 is solely the driven liquid 15, consequently even though the transport liquid 31 is a liquid which does not develop the electroosmotic phenomenon, the transport liquid 31 can be carried by using the electroosmotic pump 10A. In the electroosmotic pump 10A, so long as the driven liquid 15 is a liquid developing the electroosmotic phenomenon, whatever liquid the transport liquid 31 may be, the liquid can be stably transported. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT</p> |
