  2. Diaphragm pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaphragm_pump

    The basic working principle of an air-operated double diaphragm pump. Cross-section sketch of diaphragm fuel pump Air-operated double diaphragm pump. A diaphragm pump (also known as a Membrane pump) is a positive displacement pump that uses a combination of the reciprocating action of a rubber, thermoplastic or teflon diaphragm and suitable valves on either side of the diaphragm (check valve ...

  3. Diaphragm (mechanical device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaphragm_(mechanical_device)

    A diaphragm pump uses a diaphragm to pump a fluid. A typical design is to have air on one side constantly vary in pressure, with fluid on the other side. The increase and decrease in volume caused by the action of the diaphragm alternately forces fluid out the chamber and draws more fluid in from its source.

  4. Bright-field microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bright-field_microscopy

    A bright-field microscope has many important parts including; the condenser, the objective lens, the ocular lens, the diaphragm, and the aperture. Some other pieces of the microscope that are commonly known are the arm, the head, the illuminator, the base, the stage, the adjusters, and the brightness adjuster.

  5. Transmission electron microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_electron...

    The vacuum system for evacuating a TEM to an operating pressure level consists of several stages. Initially, a low or roughing vacuum is achieved with either a rotary vane pump or diaphragm pumps setting a sufficiently low pressure to allow the operation of a turbo-molecular or diffusion pump establishing high vacuum level necessary for operations.

  6. Respiratory pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_pump

    The respiratory pump is a mechanism to pump blood back to the heart using inspiration. It aids blood flow through the veins of the thorax and abdomen.. During inhalation, the volume of the thorax increases, largely through the contraction of the diaphragm, which moves downward and compresses the abdominal cavity.

  7. Pump–probe microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump–probe_microscopy

    Pump–probe microscopy is a non-linear optical imaging modality used in femtochemistry to study chemical reactions. It generates high-contrast images from endogenous non-fluorescent targets. It generates high-contrast images from endogenous non-fluorescent targets.

  8. Micropump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micropump

    A diaphragm micropump uses the repeated actuation of a diaphragm to drive a fluid. The membrane is positioned above a main pump valve, which is centered between inlet and outlet microvalves. When the membrane is deflected upwards through some driving force, fluid is pulled into the inlet valve into the main pump valve.

  9. Diaphragm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaphragm

    Diaphragm (optics), a stop in the light path of a lens, having an aperture that regulates the amount of light that passes; Diaphragm (acoustics), a thin, semi-rigid membrane that vibrates to produce or transmit sound waves; Diaphragm (birth control), a small rubber dome placed in the vagina to wall off the cervix, thus preventing sperm from ...
