There have been a lot of inventions that have meant a lot to the world over the history of this earth. Each invention should be and usually is intended to make life a little easier for the human race.
They are intended to take some of the manual labor out of things as well as make things possible that were impossible before.
Some inventions are life saving devices and others are of smaller consequence, but each invention has a place and a reason for that invention coming about.
One of the inventions, that probably falls somewhere in the middle, is the vacuum pump. The vacuum pump is used in a lot of applications and improved the quality of life in a lot of ways. In fact, this invention continues to be reinvented over and over to find a new place with a new use for the same general concept.
The vacuum pump was invented back in the 1600's and was a result of scientist being commissioned to discover why the suction pump, which had been invented back in the 1200's would not suck liquid past a certain point of the origin.
The vacuum pump comes in many different types of models and varieties. One of those is the rotary vacuum pump. The rotary vacuum pump has a piece in the middle of the vacuum pump that rotates around over and over, causing a vacuum in the middle of the pump which in turn created a suction and a void that the water (or other form of liquid or gas) then rushes into and fills that void.
The rotating piece then moves the water through the pump and pushes, with some force, the water or other liquid through the other end of the vacuum pump and into the exiting line.
This type of pump can be used for many different reasons, but one of the most common thing that you will see a vacuum pump used for is to remove water out of a flooded basement.
The reason a vacuum pump is needed is because you are trying to move water up hill. In order for this to happen, there needs to be enough vacuum on the line to draw the water in and then push it uphill to the outside lawn.
There are many reasons why people use vacuum pumps, but it is apparent that it is a basic tool that was needed and used for as long as it has been invented.
