A simple desoldering pump has a spring you compress, and a trigger you push to release the spring. This releases the plunger, which jerks back rapidly, creating vacuum suction at the tip. It’s like a reverse bicycle pump. You use it together with a soldering iron to melt the solder, then suck it away.
