Patent

CA 2757572

A medical connector is described which is formed by a body having an inlet port, an outlet port through a male luer portion of the body, and a fluid path between the inlet port and the at least one outlet ports. A retractable post extends through the fluid path in the male luer sealing a tip of the male luer thereby closing the fluid path when the connector in not activated. Barbs extending along the exterior of the male luer and connected to the retractable post, wherein when the connector is activated, the barbs force the retractable post away from the tip of the male luer thereby opening the fluid path through the medical connector. A retention member applies force to the post to force the post to seal the tip of the male luer with the medical connector is not activated.

L'invention concerne un connecteur médical qui comprend un corps comportant un orifice d'entrée, un orifice de sortie à travers une partie de Luer mâle du corps, et un passage de fluide formé entre l'orifice d'entrée et le(s) orifice(s) de sortie. Une tige rétractable se déploie à travers le passage de fluide du Luer mâle, obturant une extrémité de celui-ci de manière à fermer le passage de fluide quand le connecteur n'est pas activé. Des barbes se déployant sur l'extérieur du Luer mâle sont reliées à la tige rétractable; quand le connecteur est activé, les barbes repoussent la tige rétractable de manière à l'éloigner de la pointe du Luer mâle, ouvrant ainsi le passage de fluide dans le connecteur médical. Un élément de retenue applique une force sur la tige pour forcer celle-ci à obturer l'extrémité du Luer mâle quand le connecteur médical n'est pas activé.
