Abstract

See full text

A syringe pump, uses a stepping motor to rotate a lead screw with precision and in turn advance a zero-backlash ball nut or vice-versa to drive the syringe plunger. This invention is designed to eliminate virtually all forces that are not coaxially aligned with the plunger's axis by utilizing a drive shaft kinematically supported on a reference member. The barrel of the syringe is kinematically supported on the reference member with its axis aligned with the axis of the drive shaft. The drive shaft is advanced by the ball nut and drive shaft assembly to drive the plunger which is kinematically supported at one end by the end of the drive shaft and at the other end by the internal wall of the barrel.
