Abstract
A peristaltic pump (1) including a tray, referred to as a pump body (3), which includes a substantially planar surface (32) against which a flexible tube (5) for the passage of fluid is intended to be positioned, and a system (2) for applying force including a plurality of support members (7), such as rollers, and drive elements for moving the support members against the tube in order to deform it against the pump body (3). The pump body (3) is movably mounted relative to the system (2) for applying force between a position spaced apart from the system (2) for applying force, and a position adjacent to the system (2) for applying force. The pump (1) also includes elements (36) for controlling the movement of the pump body (3) relative to the system (2) on the basis of a predetermined magnitude corresponding to the force applied to the tube.
