Problems solved by technology

Previous research on valveless micropumps mainly focused on the characteristic analysis of contraction-expansion tube micropumps, and the coupling effect of the fluid itself and different channel structures has not been well considered. At the same time, in biomedicine and other practical In the field of micropumps, the efficiency of micropumps is often unsatisfactory, and the output capacity is difficult to reach the ideal level. Therefore, the output efficiency of micropumps and the working conditions of actual micropumps are still key issues to be solved.

Embodiment Construction

[0020] A valveless reciprocating micropump, using PDMS as the material, through photolithography, development and other process steps to make the SU8 mold; then apply the PDMS material mixed with the curing agent on the mold, and then release the mold after heating and curing Obtain the PDMS negative mold; then apply the PDMS material mixed with the curing agent on the PC sheet, and then heat and cure it to release the mold to obtain a PDMS flat plate; assemble the linear elastic rod according to the requirements, and then bond the PDMS negative mold and the flat plate to obtain a microstructure That is the micropump structure.

[0021] The micropump includes an inlet pipe, an upper main pipe, a lower main pipe, a vertical linear elastic rod and a horizontal linear elastic rod, wherein the upper main pipe and the lower main pipe are connected together to form an "S"-shaped main pipe that needs to pump fluid, At the same time, the radius r2 of the inner tube of the main pipelin...

Abstract

The invention discloses a no-valve reciprocating micro pump. The no-valve reciprocating micro pump comprises an inlet pipe, an upper main pipe, a lower main pipe, a vertical line elastic rod and a horizontal line elastic rod, wherein the upper main pipe and the lower main pipe are connected to form an S-shaped main pipe needed to pump a fluid; the fluid with a speed as a periodic sine function is introduced in the inlet pipe, and drives the line elastic rods to deform; and a certain inhibition effect on the fluid in the pipe is formed by the deformation of the line elastic rods, so that the net pumping flow from left and right is continuously increased. The no-valve reciprocating micro pump has the advantages of simple structure, no need of external voltage, good stability, low cost and convenience for mass production, and can finish high-efficiency fluid pumping.
