Abstract
A pump stand (1) has a base plate (2) with a pump (3) mountable thereon. The pump (3) has supports (4) serving as its vibration damping elements with which it stands upon the base plate (2). Coupling elements (5) are provided on the pump underside and on the base plate upper side, for coupling the pump (3) and the base plate (2) with each other, whereby the coupling elements essentially engage in the assembled state of the pump without locking. The coupling elements (5) are located at a defined place suitable for pumps of different sizes.
Claims15
A pump stand comprising a base plate (2) and at least one pump (3) capable of being mounted upon the pump stand with supports (4) serving as vibration dampers, wherein the pump (3) has a first coupling element (7) located on the pump and the base plate (2) has a second coupling element (8) located on the base plate upper side, the first and second coupling elements (7,8) being separably attachable to each other on their sides facing each other, said first and second coupling elements (7,8) engaging with each other essentially without locking in an assembled state of the pump and the base plate, the first and second coupling elements (7,8) being arranged at a defined place on the base plate (2) and on the pump (3) such that the first and second coupling elements are adapted to be used in conjunction with pumps of various sizes, the first and second coupling elements (7, 8) including through bores which are arranged approximately in alignment in the assembled state of the pump and the base plate, and a fastening rod (9) being provided for insertion and penetration of the coupling elements (7,8) in a securing position, the first coupling element on the pump underside comprises at least one coupling plate (7) made of a soft elastic material with a sleeve-shaped formation (12) for the through bore (13), and the second coupling element on the base plate upper side comprises bearing block counter elements (8) with through bores (14) spaced at a distance from each other about the length of the coupling plate, and the through bore (13) has a larger diameter than that of the fastening rod (9).
