1. A peristaltic pump (DDS) comprising a plurality of effecters, actuated in a periodic manner upon by obstructive forces of a flexible infusion tube so as flow of infusion fluid is provided along said infusion tube, the magnitude of said obstructive forces being dependent upon the displacement of said moving effecters;

  • and a plurality of balancing magnets providing balancing forces upon one or all said moving effecters, said balancing forces at each point along the path of motion of the moving effecters being of approximately equal magnitude to that of said obstructive forces at said point;

    such that the parasitic output due to work performed against said obstructive forces is approximately zero and yield is maximized.
