Arrangement for portable pumping unit
First Claim
1. A portable device adapted to define an enclosure for housing pump components, the device comprising:
- a front shell having a first perimetric edge, a back shell having a second perimetric edge, and a substrate shaped to fit interposed between the front and back shells, the substrate defining a plurality of compartments adapted to produce a firm grip about the pump components to hold the same securely in place within the enclosure, the substrate further including gasket seats adapted to mate with the perimetric edges of the front and back shells.

Abstract
An enclosure for a medical pumping device generally comprises a front shell, a back shell and a polymeric substrate interposed therewith. The polymeric substrate comprises at least one gasket seat corresponding to the perimetric edge of each shell. In use, various components are securely placed within the plurality of component compartments within the polymeric substrate and thereafter encased within the enclosure between the front shell and back shell. According to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the polymeric substrate also serves to form bumpers about the edges of the enclosure when the shells and substrate are assembled together.

14. A substantially watertight portable pump assembly adapted for use with a gradient pressure compression bandage comprising:
-
a front shell and a back shell, the front shell having a first perimetric edge, and the back shell having a second perimetric edge;
a plurality of pump components; and
a resin injection molded polymeric substrate shaped to fit interposed between the front and back shells, the substrate defining a plurality of compartments adapted to produce a firm grip about the pump components to hold the same securely in place within the substrate, the substrate further including gasket seats adapted to mate with the perimetric edges of the front and back shells, the gasket seats being operable to substantially dampen vibrations transmitted to the portable pump assembly.
