TUBE CONNECTION STRUCTURE

摘要

A tube connection structure is disclosed, which includes a first connector and a second connector that are fitted together. The first connector includes an outer cylinder; a communicating section which is formed with a liquid passage in which a liquid can circulate in a fitted state, and an annular valve body which is provided around the communicating section and seals an outer cylinder opening portion in a non-fitted state. The second connector includes an inner cylinder which pushes the annular valve body in the fitted state, an inner valve body which seals an inner cylinder opening portion in the non-fitted state and is pushed by the communicating section advancing into the inner cylinder through the inner cylinder opening portion in the fitted state, and a first seal member which is provided at least on an inner peripheral surface of the inner cylinder opening portion.

1. A tube connection structure, used in a living body, comprising:
a first connector which has a first connection section connected to a tube in one end portion in an axial direction; a second connector which has a second connection section connected to a tube in a other end portion in the axial direction and of which the one end portion in the axial direction is fitted with the other end portion of the first connector in the axial direction, wherein in a fitted state between the first connector and the second connector, a liquid can circulate between one end of the first connector in the axial direction and a other end of the second connector in the axial direction through the inside of the fitted first and second connectors, and in a non-fitted state between the first connector and the second connector, leakage of a liquid from the inside of the first connector to the other end of the first connector in the axial direction and leakage of a liquid from the inside of the second connector to one end of the second connector in the axial direction are prevented; the first connector includes an outer cylinder which is positioned further toward the other end in the axial direction than the first connection section; a communicating section which extends from the one end in the axial direction to an outer cylinder opening portion at the other end in the axial direction in the outer cylinder and is formed with a liquid passage in which the liquid can circulate in the fitted state; an annular valve body which is provided around the communicating section so as to be movable in the axial direction and seals the outer cylinder opening portion at the other end of the outer cylinder in the axial direction in the non-fitted state; the second connector includes an inner cylinder which is positioned further toward the one end in the axial direction than the second connection section and pushes the annular valve body to one side in the axial direction by entering the outer cylinder in the fitted state; an inner valve body which is provided in the inner cylinder so as to be movable in the axial direction, seals one end of the inner cylinder in the axial direction by being fitted with an inner cylinder opening portion of the one end of the inner cylinder in the axial direction in the non-fitted state and is pushed to the other end in the axial direction by the communicating section of the first connector advancing into the inner cylinder through the inner cylinder opening portion in the fitted state; and a first seal member which is provided at least on an inner peripheral surface of the inner cylinder opening portion and liquid-tightly seals the space between an outer peripheral surface of the communicating section of the first connector which is penetrated through the inner cylinder opening portion and the inner peripheral surface of the inner cylinder opening portion in the fitted state; and the liquid passage of the communicating section is provided in a portion entering the inner cylinder in the fitted state.
