Abstract
A fluid pump includes an inlet for introducing fluid into the fluid pump and an outlet for discharging fluid from the fluid pump. The fluid pump also includes a motor having a shaft that rotates about an axis. An impeller includes an array of blades radially surrounding the axis. The impeller is rotatable by the shaft of the motor such that rotation of the impeller pumps fluid from the inlet to the outlet. A vibration isolation member applies a force on the shaft such that the force has a component that is perpendicular to the axis.
