摘要

A pump (20) can be assembled, starting from a basic part (50) having an inlet channel (51) and an outlet channel (52), which terminate in a wall portion (55), by successively: stacking a valve foil (60) provided with an inlet valve (61) and an outlet valve (62) onto the wall portion (55); stacking an intermediate part (70) having an inlet opening (71) and an outlet opening (72) onto the stack comprising the basic part (50) and the valve foil (60); stacking an end part (80) of a flexible material onto the stack comprising the basic part (50), the valve foil (60) and the intermediate part (70); and securing the end part (80) to the basic part (50). The pump is particularly suited for use in a personal body care appliance.
