Abstract
A diaphragm pump is revealed. The diaphragm pump includes a pump device, a pump body, a top cover, and an air release valve head. The pump body includes at least two air inlet passages, at least one air outlet passage and at least one leak-proof/sealing passage, all selectively communicating with one cavity. The top cover includes a valve port, an air vent and an air outlet duct. Air pressure in the leak-proof passage acts on the air release valve head so that the valve port is closed by the air release valve head while the pump device is pumping air. The air release valve head and the valve port are separated from each other and then the valve port is communicating with the air outlet duct when the pump device stops pumping air. The pump performance is improved and no air release valve is required.
Claims6
A diaphragm pump comprising:
- a pump device which includes a bladder and an electromechanical member;
- at least two cavities formed in the bladder and a shaft of the electromechanical member connected to the bladder for driving the cavities to move upward and downward so that the cavities are compressed or expanded;
- a pump body which includes at least two air inlet passages, at least one air outlet passage and at least one leak-proof/sealing passage;
- each of the at least two air inlet passages, the at least one air outlet passage and the at least one leak-proof passage selectively communicating with at least one of the at least two cavities, wherein the pump body includes a top cover provided with a valve port, an air vent and an air outlet duct;
- and an air release valve head mated to the valve port in a separable manner;
- air pressure in the at least one leak-proof passage acting on the air release valve head so that the valve port is closed by the air release valve head while the pump device is pumping air;
- the air release valve head and the valve port separated from each other when the pump device stops pumping air, wherein the diaphragm pump includes a first valve seat and a second valve seat;
- the at least one air outlet passage comprised of a first air outlet channel formed on the first valve seat and a second air outlet channel formed on the second valve seat while the at least one leak-proof passage includes a first leak-proof channel formed on the first valve seat and a second leak-proof channel formed on the second valve seat;
- a first valve membrane is located between the first valve seat and the second valve seat and is provided with a leak-proof valve plate and an air outlet valve plate;
- the leak-proof valve plate is mated to an outlet of the second leak-proof channel in a separable manner while the air outlet valve plate is arranged at an outlet of the second air outlet channel in a separable manner;
- the first leak-proof channel and the first air outlet channel are able to be communicating with and not communicating with each other.
