ABSTRACT:
A pumping system for dispensing controlled and variable amounts of fluids in predetermined quantities includes a pump piston which moves axially in a pump chamber. The piston is reciprocated by a drive lead nut cooperating with a non-rotatable lead screw attached to the piston. The piston is sealed to the pump chamber by a seal element whose distance from the lead nut is fixed regardless of the position of the piston, thus protecting the seal. The rotatably driven lead nut includes a hollow driven shaft, containing lubricant, so that the lead screw is lubricated as it travels into the shaft of the lead nut. The motor for the system is a pulse operated reversible stepping motor enabling accurate output from the pump, for example, between .01 ml/min to 9.99 ml/min as controlled by the stepping motor. One motor may drive two pumps for a continuous controlled pumping system. If desired a flush mechanism may be used to rinse the piston of any pumped material which adheres to the surface.
