Abstract

A pump. The pump includes a housing, a conductor, a first coil and a second coil. The housing has an intake and an output. The conductor is movably disposed in the housing. The first coil generates a magnetic force attracting the conductor toward the output when electrified such that fluid therebetween flows out of the housing. The second coil generates a magnetic force attracting the conductor toward the intake when electrified such that fluid therebetween flows between the conductor and the output.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A pump, comprising: 
 a housing having an intake and an output;    a conductor movably disposed in the housing;    a first coil generating a magnetic force attracting the conductor toward the output when electrified such that fluid therebetween flows out of the housing; and    a second coil generating a magnetic force attracting the conductor toward the intake when electrified such that fluid therebetween flows between the conductor and the output.    
   
   
       2 . The pump as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the fluid taken into the housing is stored between the intake and the conductor when the first coil is electrified.  
   
   
       3 . The pump as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a first base and a second base both disposed in the housing, wherein the first coil is wound around the first base and the second coil around the second base.  
   
   
       4 . The pump as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the first and second bases are electrically insulated.  
   
   
       5 . The pump as claimed in  claim 3 , further comprising an entrance valve and a exit valve, the entrance valve disposed between the intake and conductor, and the exit valve disposed between the conductor and the output, wherein the entrance valve opens and the exit valve closes when the first coil is electrified, and the entrance valve closes and the exit valve opens when the second coil is electrified.  
   
   
       6 . The pump as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the entrance valve and the exit valve are both one-way valves.  
   
   
       7 . The pump as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein each one-way valve comprises an elastic member, a ball and a barricade connected to the elastic member and the ball disposed therebetween.  
   
   
       8 . The pump as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein an end of the elastic member connects to the conductor, and another end of the elastic member is disposed between the first and second bases.  
   
   
       9 . The pump as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein the elastic member comprises a corrugated portion near where the first base connecting to the second base.  
   
   
       10 . The pump as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the elastic member connects to the second base.  
   
   
       11 . The pump as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the elastic member comprises rubber.  
   
   
       12 . The pump as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the barricade comprises an aluminum plate with openings.  
   
   
       13 . The pump as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the housing comprises permeable material.  
   
   
       14 . The pump as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a conducting plate disposed in the housing.  
   
   
       15 . The pump as claimed in  claim 3 , further comprising a conducting plate disposed between the first and second bases.  
   
   
       16 . The pump as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising an exit valve disposed at the output of the housing limiting fluid flow to one direction.  
   
   
       17 . The pump as claimed in  claim 16 , wherein the exit valve comprises an elastic member, a ball and a barricade connected to the elastic member and the ball disposed therebetween, and an end of the elastic member connects to the conductor and another end to the housing.  
   
   
       18 . The pump as claimed in  claim 17 , wherein the elastic member comprises a corrugated portion near where the elastic member connects to the housing.  
   
   
       19 . The pump as claimed in  claim 17 , wherein the elastic member comprises rubber.  
   
   
       20 . The pump as claimed in  claim 17 , wherein the barricade comprises an aluminum plate with openings.  
   
   
       21 . The pump as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising an entrance valve disposed at the intake limiting fluid flow to one direction.  
   
   
       22 . The pump as claimed in  claim 21 , wherein the entrance valve comprises an elastic member, a ball and a barricade connected to the elastic member and the ball disposed therebetween, and the elastic member connects to the housing.  
   
   
       23 . The pump as claimed in  claim 22 , wherein the elastic member comprises rubber.  
   
   
       24 . The pump as claimed in  claim 22 , wherein the barricade comprises an aluminum plate with openings.
