Patent

CA 2633217

Certain embodiments of the present invention include a male luer connector having a valve arrangement for keeping a passage that extends through the male luer connector closed when the male luer connector is not attached to a corresponding female luer connector. This passage of the male luer connector may opened by connecting the male luer connector to a female luer connector. The valve arrangement of the male luer connector may include a movable sealing element arranged around a central fluid conduit. In some embodiments, the male luer connector may include a filter that is permeable to gas, but substantially impermeable to liquid, thus allowing gas to be purged from the male luer connector while substantially preventing liquid from leaking from the connector at least when the male luer connector is not connected to a female luer connector.

La présente invention comprend, dans certains de ses modes de réalisation, un raccord Luer mâle doté d'un dispositif de valve destiné à maintenir fermé un passage qui s'étend à travers le raccord Luer mâle lorsque ce dernier n'est pas fixé à un raccord Luer femelle correspondant. Ce passage du raccord Luer mâle peut être ouvert en branchant le raccord Luer mâle sur un raccord Luer femelle. Le dispositif de valve du raccord Luer mâle peut comprendre un élément d'étanchéité mobile agencé autour d'un conduit central de fluide. Dans certains modes de réalisation, le raccord Luer mâle peut comprendre un filtre perméable aux gaz mais sensiblement imperméable aux liquides, permettant ainsi aux gaz d'être purgés du raccord Luer mâle tout en empêchant sensiblement les liquides de s'échapper du raccord au moins lorsque le raccord Luer mâle n'est pas relié à un raccord Luer femelle.
