Abstract

A conveyor device for conveying at least a fluid, comprises at least one conveyor chamber, at least one dimensionally stable conveyor chamber element formed separately from a housing in particular and at least partly delimits the conveyor chamber and at least one elastically deformable conveyor element, in particular a conveyor membrane, which together with the conveyor chamber element delimits the conveyor chamber and is arranged on the conveyor chamber element. The conveyor chamber element comprises at least one connecting piece for a fluid supply line adapter designed to differ from a tube, and/or at least one connecting piece, in particular an additional connecting piece, for a fluid discharge line adapter, which is designed to differ from a tube, said connecting piece/connecting pieces being arranged on a conveyor chamber element face facing away from the conveyor element, in particular on the exterior of the conveyor chamber element.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A conveyor device for at least conveying a fluid with at least one conveyor chamber, with at least one dimensionally stable conveyor chamber element that particularly is formed separately from a housing and at least partially delimits the conveyor chamber and with at least one elastically deformable conveyor element, particularly a conveyor membrane, that delimits the conveyor chamber together with the conveyor chamber element and is arranged on the conveyor chamber element, wherein the conveyor chamber element comprises at least one connecting piece for a fluid supply line adapter, which particularly is designed to differ from a hose, and/or, in particular, at least one additional connecting piece for a fluid discharge line adapter, which particularly is designed to differ from a hose, and wherein said connecting piece/connecting pieces is/are arranged on a side, particularly on an outer side, of the conveyor chamber element facing away from the conveyor element, characterized by at least one movement compensation unit that is at least designed for at least partially compensating and/or damping relative movements between the fluid supply line adapter and the connecting piece when the connecting piece is connected to the fluid supply line adapter and/or for at least partially compensating and/or damping relative movements between the fluid discharge line adapter and, in particular, the additional connecting piece when the additional connecting piece is connected to the fluid discharge line adapter. 
     
     
         2 . The conveyor device according to  claim 1 , characterized by at least one functional unit), particularly a filter unit and/or a valve unit, as well as the fluid supply line adapter and/or the fluid discharge line adapter, wherein the functional unit is at least partially arranged in the fluid supply line adapter and/or in the fluid discharge line adapter. 
     
     
         3 . The conveyor device according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the connecting piece and/or, in particular, the additional connecting piece particularly is/are respectively arranged on at least one transverse extension of the conveyor chamber element. 
     
     
         4 . The conveyor device according to  claim 3 , characterized in that the connecting piece and/or, in particular, the additional connecting piece particularly has/have a respective principal axis that extends transverse, particularly at least essentially perpendicular, to a principal plane of the at least one transverse extension. 
     
     
         5 . The conveyor device according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the connecting piece and, in particular, the additional connecting piece are arranged on the side, particularly on the outer side, of the conveyor chamber element facing away from the conveyor element such that they are aligned differently, particularly in an opposed manner. 
     
     
         6 . A pump with at least one conveyor device according to  claim 1  and with at least one housing for accommodating the conveyor device, wherein the conveyor device comprises the fluid supply line adapter and/or the fluid discharge line adapter, which extends/extend from the conveyor chamber element at least up to an outer side of the housing when the conveyor device is arranged in the housing. 
     
     
         7 . The pump according to  claim 6 , characterized in that the fluid supply line adapter and/or the fluid discharge line adapter are arranged on the housing and/or the conveyor chamber element in a removable manner. 
     
     
         8 . The pump according to  claim 6 , characterized by at least one securing unit for securing the fluid supply line adapter and/or the fluid discharge line adapter on the housing by means of the form-fitting and/or frictional connection. 
     
     
         9 . The pump according to  claim 6 , characterized in that the connecting piece and/or, in particular, the additional connecting piece are arranged such that they are spaced apart from an inner wall of the housing, particularly viewed along a principal axis of the connecting piece and/or, in particular, the additional connecting piece, when the conveyor device is arranged in the housing. 
     
     
         10 . The conveyor device according to  claim 2 , characterized in that the connecting piece and/or, in particular, the additional connecting piece particularly is/are respectively arranged on at least one transverse extension of the conveyor chamber element. 
     
     
         11 . The pump according to  claim 7 , characterized by at least one securing unit for securing the fluid supply line adapter and/or the fluid discharge line adapter on the housing by means of the form-fitting and/or frictional connection. 
     
     
         12 . The pump according to  claim 7 , characterized in that the connecting piece and/or, in particular, the additional connecting piece are arranged such that they are spaced apart from an inner wall of the housing, particularly viewed along a principal axis of the connecting piece and/or, in particular, the additional connecting piece, when the conveyor device is arranged in the housing. 
     
     
         13 . The pump according to  claim 8 , characterized in that the connecting piece and/or, in particular, the additional connecting piece are arranged such that they are spaced apart from an inner wall of the housing, particularly viewed along a principal axis of the connecting piece and/or, in particular, the additional connecting piece, when the conveyor device is arranged in the housing.
