Male Bayonet Connector

摘要

A releasable connection assembly for connecting tubing sections is disclosed. The assembly includes a dual lumen male bayonet connector and a female latch connector. The dual lumen male bayonet connector includes a first shaft and a second shaft, where each of the first and second shafts includes a distal sealing portion defining a sealing surface, a proximal coupling portion, and an annular channel. The female latch connector includes a proximal end, two sealing members and a distal end. A kit is also disclosed. The kit includes a dual lumen male bayonet connector, a blood pressure cuff, and two sections of medical tubing. The two sections of medical tubing engage each of the proximal coupling portions of the first shaft and the second shaft and the blood pressure cuff.

1. A releasable connection assembly for connecting tubing sections, the releasable connection assembly comprising:
a dual lumen male bayonet connector comprising:
a first shaft and a second shaft spaced apart from and connected to the first shaft, each of the first shaft and the second shaft further defining an axial lumen, and each of the first shaft and the second shaft comprising:
a distal sealing portion defining a sealing surface configured to engage a receiving portion of a female latch connector of the releasable connection assembly;a proximal coupling portion configured to engage a first section of tubing; andan annular channel proximal to and adjacent the distal sealing portion, the annular channel of each of the first shaft and the second shaft comprising:
a distal sidewall that is perpendicular with respect to an axis of the axial lumen;a proximal sidewall having a beveled edge; anda bottom region connecting the distal sidewall and the beveled edge that is concentric with and of smaller diameter than the sealing surface,wherein the sealing surface has a constant outer diameter along a portion of its axial length and extends distally from the annular channel; and the female latch connector comprising:
a proximal end defining two receiving apertures configured to receive at least part of the distal sealing portions of the first shaft and the second shaft,two sealing members configured to contact the sealing surfaces of the distal sealing portions of the first shaft and the second shaft, anda distal end comprising two tube couplings configured to engage second sections of tubing.
