Abstract:
A method of dispensing a continuous fluid flow is described, the method includes: (i) filling a first cylinder chamber, having a first predefined volume, with fluid received through a first manifold from a first fluid inlet; (ii) dispensing the first predefined amount of the fluid present inside the first cylinder chamber through the first manifold to a fluid outlet; (iii) filling a second cylinder chamber, having a second predefined volume, with fluid received through a second manifold from a second fluid inlet, and wherein filling is carried out contemporaneously with dispensing; (iv) exerting, during dispensing, a deflection-causing force on a first housing that is disposed adjacent to the first cylinder chamber; and (v) preventing, using the deflection-prevention feature, transfer of the deflection-causing force from the first housing to a second housing, which is disposed adjacent to the second cylinder chamber and is disposed adjacent to the first housing.

Claim (Index 4):
The pump of  claim 1 , wherein said two or more housings include:\n (i) a first housing having defined therein a first chamber; (ii) a second housing having defined therein a second chamber; wherein said two or more motors include:\n (i) a first motor disposed inside said first housing and configured to drive a first piston; \n (ii) a second motor disposed inside said second housing and configured to drive a second piston; \n wherein said two or more cylinders include:\n (i) a first cylinder disposed adjacent to said first housing and said first cylinder having defined therein a first cylinder chamber and wherein one end of said first piston is capable of protruding into said first cylinder chamber by a first predefined extent; \n (ii) a second cylinder disposed adjacent to said second housing and said second cylinder having defined therein a second cylinder chamber and wherein one end of said second piston is capable of protruding into said second cylinder chamber by a second predefined extent; \n wherein said two or more manifold include:\n (i) a first manifold includes or is communicatively coupled to a first fluid inlet, and wherein said first manifold introduces a first amount of fluid received from said first fluid inlet into said first cylinder chamber; \n (ii) a second manifold includes or is communicatively coupled to a second fluid inlet, and wherein said second manifold introduces a second amount of fluid received from said second fluid inlet into said second cylinder chamber; and \n wherein said deflection-prevention feature allows said first piston to continue to protrude into said first cylinder chamber by said first predefined extent and allows said second piston to continue to protrude into said second cylinder chamber by said second predefined extent.
