Zusammenfassung:A linear peristaltic pump can include a first electromagnet operable to pump a fluid through a first cavity of a flexible conduit by repeatedly compressing the first cavity in a first sequence, a second electromagnet operable to pump the fluid through a second cavity of the flexible conduit by repeatedly compressing the second cavity in a second sequence, and a third electromagnet operable to pump the fluid through a third cavity of the flexible conduit by repeatedly compressing the third cavity in a third sequence. The electromagnets may compress the cavities by applying magnetic fields to a magnetoactive elastomer.
