Embodiment Construction

[0038] Figure 1AA schematic diagram of a breast pump 1 suitable for implementing the features of the invention is shown. The breast pump 1 comprises an expressing set 2, 2' having a funnel 3, 3' connected thereto. The funnels 3, 3' are shaped to receive a female breast therein and may be made of any suitable elastic material, such as silicone or polyurethane. The container 5, 5' is connected to the expressing set 2, 2' to receive expressed milk into the container. Alternatively, there may be only one container 5, which may be connected to the two squeeze sleeves 2, 2' via eg fluid pipes or the like. The container 5, 5' can be fixedly connected to the squeeze sleeve 2, 2', for example by screwing or by bayonets. Exhaust valves 4, 4' may be provided in the extrusion sleeves 2, 2' for venting the components during and after extrusion. The extrusion sleeves 2, 2' are connected to the valve assembly 13 by conduits 7, 7'. A respective vacuum pump 6 , 6 ′ is connected to the val...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a breast pump (1) comprising a first pump (6) and second pump (6'), at least one expression kit (2, 2'), a valve assembly (13), and a control unit (8) for controllingthe valve assembly (13) and / or the pumps (6, 6'), wherein the control unit (8) is configured to control the valve assembly (13) and / or the pumps (6, 6') for alternate operation of the first and secondpumps (6, 6') in dependency of the operation times of the first and second pumps (6, 6').

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a breast pump for expressing milk from a female breast and a method of operating such a breast pump. Background technique [0002] A breast pump according to DE 10 2014 009056 A1 comprising: a controller; a drive motor; a drive transmission; two piston-cylinder units; two suction devices, each of which can be attached to the breast; tubes, each connecting the piston-cylinder and its corresponding suction means; the drive transmission transmits the rotational motion of the shaft of the drive motor to the supply and return motion of the piston relative to the cylinder, so that the periodic pressure on the transmission tube The changes are transmitted to the suction device. The two transfer pipes are respectively provided with a vacuum release valve and a pressure release valve which can be adjusted by the controller. With these valves, the pressure curve generated by the piston-cylinder unit can be limited within the de...
