Lockable Exchangeable Fluid Connector and Method
Disclosed herein is a fluid connector system configured to couple a first fluid line structure, e.g. port, with a second fluid line structure, e.g. catheter. The connector system can include a connector body and one or more locking mechanisms designed to transition between an unlocked position and a locked position. The locking mechanism includes a first lever arm rotatably coupled to the connector body, and a second lever arm rotatably coupled to the first lever arm. The second lever arm can further be rotatably and releasably coupled to the port. Rotating the first lever arm uses mechanical advantage to urge the port to engage a catheter ensuring a tight seal therebetween even under high fluid pressures.

MALE COUPLING WITH INTEGRATED SHUNT SYSTEM, KIT COMPRISING SAID MALE COUPLING FOR ACHIEVING THE SHUNT FUNCTION ON THE MOVABLE SIDE OF A MULTI-COUPLING DEVICE AND MULTI-COUPLING DEVICE COMPRISING SAID KIT
The present invention relates to a male coupling with integrated shunt system for the application on a multi-coupling device of the plate type, as well as a multi-coupling device comprising said coupling with integrated shunt system.
The invention thus makes it possible to implement the shunt function on movable plate side, i.e. on the plate configured to support a plurality of male couplings so as to short-circuit the male couplings when the plates are uncoupled.
The present invention further relates to a kit comprising at least one pair of male couplings with integrated shunt system and to a connection plate configured to achieve the fluid connection between the two male couplings, as well as a multi-coupling device comprising such a kit.

Fluid inlet adapter
An adapter for selectively providing fluid to a device from one of multiple fluid sources has a body with a first inlet for connecting a first one of the multiple fluid sources to the device and a second inlet for connecting a second one of the multiple fluid sources to the device. The adapter also includes a handle that is movably coupled to the body and includes an access control element. The handle is configured to secure the body to a device when the adapter is in either of a first position or a second position that is rotated relative to the first configuration. The access control element obstructs access to the second inlet when the adapter is secured to the device in the first position and the access control element obstructs access to the first inlet when the adapter is secured to the device in the second position.
ARRANGEMENT FOR DETERMINING THE PLUGGING POSITION OF A HOSE COUPLING ON A CONNECTION FIELD
An arrangement for determining a plugging position of a hose coupling on a connection field includes the connection field including a plurality of coupling sockets and a plurality of hose couplings in which each of the plurality of hose couplings is coupled to a corresponding one of the plurality of coupling sockets. The at least one hose coupling includes a receiving coil and each of the plurality of coupling sockets includes a transmitting coil. A data interface is disposed in communication with the receiving coil, and an evaluation unit is disposed in communication with the data interface. The receiving coil is configured to analyze an individual identifier retrievable at the transmitting coil during connection of the at least one hose coupling to one of the coupling sockets, and the identifier is transmitted via the data interface to the evaluation unit to determine the plugging position of the hose coupling.
