Compressed air operated fluid pump applied to oil wells

A compressed air operated fluid pump for use in conjunction with oil wells comprising:

• A stainless steel housing;
• having pumping elements internally disposed within said housing, said pumping elements comprising:
• (1) A float having a top and a bottom for controlling air entering and exiting said pump;
• (2) A plurality of magnets operatively mounted for positioning said float as air enters and exits said pump;
• (3) A plurality of air ports to facilitate air flow entering and exiting said pump, wherein said plurality of air ports comprise a first air-in port, a second air-in port, and an air-out port to facilitate air exhaust from said pump;
• (4) A plurality of air lines to facilitate the air flow within said pump, wherein said plurality of air lines are vertically positioned in relation to said float, are parallel to said float, and extend above said float to connect to said plurality of air ports, which facilitate the flow of air and exhaust within said pump;
• (5) At least one fluid channel to facilitate moving fluid out of said pump, wherein said fluid channel is vertically positioned in relation to said float, is parallel to said float, and extends above said float to facilitate pushing fluid out of said pump;
• and
• A foot valve attached to said pump to control fluid entry into said pump and fluid exit from said pump, wherein said foot valve is positioned at the bottom of said housing and comprises a one-way check valve that allows fluid to flow into said pump and prevents fluid from flowing out of said pump, and wherein said foot valve further comprises a bottom cap positioned at the bottom of said pump to facilitate retaining in place said plurality of air lines in relation to said pump;
• and wherein said pump further comprises a linkage unit internally disposed within said pump and positioned above said float to control the air flow into said pump and the air flow out of said pump, and
• wherein said linkage unit further comprises an exhaust channel seal attached to a top plate of said linkage unit to control exhaust flow within said pump, and wherein said linkage unit is connected to an adjacent linkage unit guide plate and has a linkage unit hinge pin that facilitates moving said linkage unit up and down during operation of said pump.
