By injecting the liquid medicine, the ball bearing 9 is operated in the liquid medicine, so that blood cannot enter the above-mentioned region, thereby preventing thrombus and blood coagulation caused by mechanical massage of the ball bearing 9. Optionally, the liquid medicine may specifically be normal saline, the ball bearing 9 may be completely immersed in the liquid medicine, and the liquid injection pump 6 may be implemented by various existing pumps having a liquid injection function, such as a vane pump, a plunger pump, and the like. It should be understood that the infusion pump 6 and the motor and/or the blood pump may be connected as a whole through the housing 2, the infusion pump 6 and the motor and/or the blood pump may also be provided separately, and the infusion pump 6 introduces the liquid medicine output by the infusion pump 6 into the corresponding area only through the infusion pipeline.
In one embodiment of the present invention, an impeller 3 is disposed at one end of the rotor, the liquid injection pump 6 is connected to the other end of the rotor away from the impeller 3, and the liquid injection pump 6 injects a liquid medicine between the stator and the rotor so as to immerse the ball bearing 9 in the liquid medicine.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the blood is transported by centrifugal action generated by rotation of the impeller 3, the blood inlet 1 may be provided at a position on the casing 2 at the end of the impeller 3, and the blood outlet 4 may be provided at a position on the side of the impeller 3. It will be understood that the end portion is a surface parallel or approximately parallel to the plane of rotation of the impeller 3 and directly opposite the axis of rotation of the impeller 3, and the side surface is an arc-shaped surface surrounding the tips of the blades of the impeller 3. The shape, principle, and the like of the impeller 3 are not specifically described in the embodiments of the present invention.
