Abstract (en)

[origin: US6074365A] PCT No. PCT/DE97/00441 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 26, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 26, 1998 PCT Filed Feb. 27, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO97/31662 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 4, 1997The invention relates to a magnetofluid-supported electromagnetic drive for a blood pump for supporting or partially to totally replacing the heart whereby the blood pump in its weight as well as its energy density nearly corresponds to the natural heart and is especially suitable for an implantation whereby a reduction of the total system in comparison with known systems is to be made possible and the efficiency is improved at the same time. This task is solved by the blood pump having a magnetofluid-supported electromagnetic drive consisting of one or several electromagnets and force-transforming facilities and with the space of at least one electromagnetic circuit being completely or partially filled with magnetofluid, whereby the poles show permanent-magnetic properties. Thereby, a magnetofluid with a saturation magnetization of 150 to 450 mT has been used with an initial permeability of 5 to 25.
