A fluid delivery system includes a reservoir for storing fluid, a rotary pump having a first pump port and a second pump port, a first fluid conduit connecting the first pump port to the reservoir, and a second fluid conduit connecting the second pump port to the reservoir. The rotary pump rotates in a first delivery direction in a normal mode and in a second delivery direction in an alternative mode. A first valve separates the first pump port from the reservoir when the rotary pump is in its alternative mode, and a second valve separates the second pump port from the reservoir when the rotary pump is in its normal mode.

Fluid delivery system with load-dependent rotational speed reversal of a rotary pump

A rotary pump including: a pump housing including a delivery chamber, having an inlet and an outlet for a fluid; a delivery member which can be rotated about a rotational axis in the delivery chamber in order to deliver the fluid; a setting structure which can be moved translationally back and forth in the pump housing relative to the delivery member in and counter to a setting direction in order to adjust the delivery volume of the rotary pump; a setting device for generating a setting force which acts on the setting structure in the setting direction; a restoring spring for exerting a restoring force which acts on the setting structure counter to the setting direction; and an additional spring for exerting an additional force which acts on the setting structure in or counter to the setting direction.
