| abstract |
The present invention relates to devices for controlling fluid flow. An apparatus, system, and method for regulating fluid flow are disclosed. The device includes a curved, elongated support member that is elastically deformable and has a first end and a second end. The device also includes opposing support members configured to position the tube between the first end and the second end against the curved elongated support member. Deformation of the curved elongated support member caused by the movement of the first and second ends towards each other reduces the inner volume of the tube. |
