Abstract

A pump (1, 101) includes a pump housing (2, 102) having an intake opening (5, 105) and a plurality of outlet openings (6, 106). A pump wheel (9, 109) is accommodated in the housing (2, 102) in a rotationally drivable manner to effect a fluid stream from the intake opening (5, 105) to the respective outlet opening (6, 106). An adjustable ring element (13, 113) is provided radially outside the pump wheel (9, 109) and inside the housing (2, 102). The adjustable ring element (13, 113) enables the fluid stream through the respective outlet opening (6, 106) to be regulated.
