Patent

CA 2595827

Apparatuses and methods for providing audio, visual and/or tactile feedback during assembly of two mating medical fluid connectors and a retention force are provided. The invention includes a first connector defining a first lumen and a second connector defining a second lumen. The first and second connectors are threaded together to enable the first lumen to initially communicate fluidly with the second lumen after the first and second connectors are engaged. The first connector defines a first engaging member and the second connector defines a second engaging member, the engaging members mating to provide (i) feedback indicating that a mating of the first and second connnectors is at least substantially complete and (ii) a retention force tending to hold the first and second connectors together. An improved apparatus for releasing a sealed disinfectant is also provided.

L'invention concerne un dispositif et des méthodes permettant d'obtenir à la fois une rétroaction sonore, visuelle et/ou tactile lors du raccordement de deux connecteurs médicaux homologues, et une force de retenue. L'invention comprend un premier connecteur comportant une première lumière et un second connecteur comportant une seconde lumière. Le premier et le second connecteur sont filetés et conçus pour être vissés ensemble de façon que la première lumière communique directement avec la seconde lumière. Le premier connecteur comporte un premier élément de fixation et le second connecteur comporte un second élément de fixation, les éléments de fixation étant conçus pour entrer en prise et pour fournir (i) une rétroaction indiquant que le raccordement du premier et du second connecteur est au moins sensiblement terminé et (ii) une force de retenue permettant de maintenir le premier et le second connecteur ensemble. L'invention concerne également un dispositif conçu pour libérer un désinfectant contenu dans un espace étanche.
