ABSTRACT:
A cyclic action, electromechanically operated artificial heart having a pusher plate assembly disposed between a pair of bladders for alternately compressing one bladder containing blood directed to the pulmonary system and another bladder containing blood directed to the systemic circulatory system includes a mechanical linkage for translating unidirectional rotary motion of a motor located opposite of both bladders into reciprocating movement of the pusher plate assembly.
