Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Austragvorrichtung für Flüssigkeiten, insbesondere für pharmazeutische Flüssigkeiten, mit einer Fördereinrichtung (10), mit einem mit einer Eingangsseite (10a) der Fördereinrichtung (10) verbundenen Flüssigkeitsspeicher (20) zur Speicherung der Flüssigkeit (30) und mit einer mit einer Ausgangsseite (10b) der Fördereinrichtung (10) verbundenen Austragsöffnung (12), wobei der Flüssigkeitsspeicher (20) zumindest als abschnittsweise formflexibler Flüssigkeitsbeutel (20) ausgebildet ist und der Flüssigkeitsspeicher (20) in einem volumenkonstanten Aufnahmeraum (42) angeordnet ist. Zu Vermeidung des Austretens von Luft aus dem Aufnahmeraum (42) ist vorgesehen, dass
- der Aufnahmeraum (42) durch ein Aufnahmegehäuse (40) gegenüber einer Umgebungsatmosphäre (1) gasdicht verschlossen ist,
- der Aufnahmeraum (42) mit einer Umgebungsatmosphäre (1) zum Zwecke des Druckausgleichs durch mindestens einen Kapillarkanal (60,62) verbunden ist, oder
- der Aufnahmeraum (42) mit einer Umgebungsatmosphäre (1) zum Zwecke des Druckausgleichs über einen Druckausgleichskanal verbunden ist, wobei ein druckdifferenzabhängig öffnendes Ventil (70) in diesem Druckausgleichskanal angeordnet ist.

The invention relates to a discharge device for liquids, in particular for pharmaceutical liquids, with a conveyor (10), with a connected to an input side (10a) of the conveyor (10) liquid storage (20) for storing the liquid (30) and with a with a Output side (10b) of the conveyor (10) connected to the discharge opening (12), wherein the liquid reservoir (20) is formed at least as a formally flexible liquid bag (20) and the liquid storage (20) in a volume-constant receiving space (42) is arranged. To avoid the escape of air from the receiving space (42) is provided that
- The receiving space (42) by a receiving housing (40) relative to an ambient atmosphere (1) is sealed gas-tight,
- The receiving space (42) with an ambient atmosphere (1) for the purpose of pressure equalization by at least one capillary channel (60,62) is connected, or
- The receiving space (42) is connected to an ambient atmosphere (1) for the purpose of pressure equalization via a pressure equalization channel, wherein a pressure difference-dependent opening valve (70) is arranged in this pressure equalization channel.
