Fluid Transporting Device, and Fluid Transporter
First Claim
1. A fluid transporting device characterized by comprising:
- a tube frame having a tube guide wall for arranging a tube having an elasticity in an arcuate shape;
a rotary pressure mechanism arranged, when the tube is arranged in the tube frame, on the side opposite to the guide wall side of the tube, such that its center of rotation is aligned with the center of the arc of the tube guide wall, and having a plurality of rollers;
a plurality of push pins interposed between the tube and the rotary pressure mechanism and arranged radially of the center of rotation of the rotary pressure mechanism; and
a switching mechanism disposed in the rotary pressure mechanism for allowing at least one of the rollers to move, in association with the rotating motions of the rotary pressure mechanism, to a position where the push pins release the tube and a position where the push pins are capable of pressing the tube.

Abstract
A fluid transporting device comprises a tube frame having a tube guide wall for arranging a tube having an elasticity in an arcuate shape, and a rotary pressure mechanism having a plurality of rollers. The rotary pressure mechanism is arranged, when the tube is arranged in the tube frame, on the side opposite to the guide wall side of the tube, such that its center of rotation is aligned with the center of the arc of the tube guide wall. A plurality of push pins are interposed between the tube and the rotary pressure mechanism and are arranged radially of the center of rotation of the rotary pressure mechanism. A switching mechanism moves at least one of the rollers to a position for the push pins to release the tube and a position for the push pins to press the tube.
