An improved mechanism for attaching a feeding tube to a feeding delivery system is presented. The feeding delivery system is attached to an elongated connecting member that is pivotally attached to a bolster. After attachment, the elongated connecting member is rotated to engage another tube at the base of the pivot. Before pivoting, the passageway is blocked by the interference of the elongated connecting member. As the elongated connecting member is rotated, the conduit system aligns and becomes a passageway to and from the stomach. The device provides a three part rigid plastic fit that does not wear out over a number of uses. The device prevents splash events, which occur when a feeding adapter is opened or when the adapter or valve is forced open by a cough or gastric pressure build up.
L'invention porte sur un mécanisme amélioré destiné à fixer un tube d'alimentation à un système de distribution. Le système de distribution est fixé à un élément de raccordement allongé qui est fixé pivotant à un châssis. Après fixation, l'élément de raccordement allongé tourne afin de venir en contact avec un autre tube à la base du pivot. Avant pivotement, le passage est bloqué par l'interférence de l'élément de raccordement allongé. Lorsque l'élément de raccordement allongé tourne, le système de conduit s'aligne et devient un passage vers et à partir de l'estomac. Le dispositif est un ajustage plastique rigide en trois parties qui résiste à l'usure au bout d'un certain nombre d'utilisations. Ce dispositif protège des éclaboussures survenant lorsqu'un adaptateur d'alimentation est ouvert ou lorsque l'adaptateur ou la valve s'ouvre sous la pression de la toux ou pression gastrique.
