<p>#CMT# #/CMT# The mechanism has a coupler socket (1) for inserting a coupler plug (2), and secured to the plug by a spring-loaded catch connection (3). The connection is actuated by a safety mechanism (20) e.g. spring-loaded catch element, and released by the plug inserted into the socket. The safety mechanism is positioned in the socket, and the catch element has a radially slidable clamping element (22) that is in an active connection with an axially slidable pin (21). The clamping element is pre-tensed by using a spring element (4). #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Medical instrument coupling mechanism for coupling medical instruments e.g. endoscopic instrument, and endoscope eyepiece, for providing insulation against gas and liquid. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The safety mechanism is positioned in the coupler socket, thus preventing accidental hand locking, and preventing automatic locking of the inserted coupler socket, and hence effectively managing connection of the components in a simple and secure manner, and ensuring a safe, well-stabilized and gas and liquid-proof catching connection of the components. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows an explosion view of a coupling mechanism. 1 : Coupler socket 2 : Coupler plug 3 : Spring-loaded catch connection 4 : Spring element 20 : Safety mechanism 21 : Axially slidable pin 22 : Safety mechanism.</p> |
