Abstract:
A fluid pump includes a pump element in communication with an inlet and an outlet. Rotation of the pump element generates a suction at the inlet and pressure at the outlet. The suction and pressure cooperate to move a fluid through a fluid path. An accessory fluid path is in communication with the inlet and outlet. The accessory fluid path includes a thermistor in communication with the accessory fluid path. The thermistor monitors a temperature of the fluid within the accessory fluid path.

Claim (Index 11):
A fluid pump comprising:\n a pump element in communication with a fluid path; an accessory fluid path that defines a portion of the fluid path; a shadow port in communication with the pump element, wherein the pump element and the shadow port regulate a flow of a fluid between a primary flow of the fluid that is directed to an outlet, and an excess flow of the fluid that is directed through the accessory fluid path and then to the outlet; wherein operation of the pump element in conjunction with the shadow port promotes the primary flow of the fluid toward the outlet and simultaneously promotes the excess flow of the fluid through the accessory fluid path; the excess flow of the fluid through the accessory fluid path is in thermal communication with a thermistor that is disposed on a circuit board; and the thermistor measures a fluid temperature of the excess flow of the fluid within the accessory fluid path.
