Abstract

See full text

A pump assembly includes a housing defining a working chamber, a water pump chamber and a waste pump chamber. A first diaphragm separates the water pump chamber and the working chamber. A second diaphragm separates the waste pump chamber and the working chamber. A common driver member interconnects the first diaphragm and the second diaphragm. Movement of the driven member to a first position creates a positive pressure in the water pump chamber and a negative pressure in the waste pump chamber. Movement of the driven member to a second position creates a negative pressure in the water pump chamber and a positive pressure in the waste pump chamber.
