Patent attributes
In a diaphragm pump with two diaphragms disposed in a pump housing and actuated by an adjusting piston which can be acted on alternately and which is arranged in between the diaphragms, the diaphragms are fixed with curvatures facing one another, or a curvature facing away from one another, and two reaction spaces are formed between the diaphragms and a cylinder, the reaction spaces accommodating the adjusting piston and being filled with a hydraulic medium and connected together in a constrained arrangement by means of hydraulic linkage lines. Both diaphragms remain in position and do not fold over during a transition from a suction stroke to a pressure stroke, because the diaphragms are continuously in contact with the hydraulic lines and are thereby fixed in place, so that the diaphragms are not subjected to alternating loadings.
