Fluid pump

An axial fluid pump for conveying blood as a fluid comprising:

• a fluid channel for conveying blood, that is bounded by a channel wall and extending axially between an inlet region and an outlet region, the fluid channel comprising a spherical section;
• a rotor disposed in the fluid channel and extending from the inlet region towards the outlet region, the rotor is-rotatably mounted about a pivot point of a bearing by a mechanical, hydrodynamic and/or hydrostatic, axial and radial bearing, wherein the rotor comprises:
• a rotor body;
• and
• a conveying element disposed within the spherical section of the fluid channel and that is configured to generate a substantially spherical rotational area of the rotor;
• and
• wherein a spherical center of the spherical section of the fluid channel and a spherical center of the substantially spherical rotational area coincide with the pivot point such that a minimum distance between the rotor and the channel wall is maintained in the spherical section during a tilting of the rotor.
