<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a lock connector device which can be attached/detached by a simple operation and scarcely develops poor airtightness in a septum of a connecting port even if it is retained in a connected state for a long time. <P>SOLUTION: The lock connector 10 includes a tubular part 1 having a tubular tip 1b and a pair of lock levers 6 extending along the side face of the tubular part and formed with engaging claws 7 at their tips. The connecting port 11 includes a tubular port body, a partition member sealing the tip of the inner cavity of the port body and first and second step parts 17a, 17b provided on the peripheral face of the port body. In a first connecting state that the tip of the lock connector faces the tip of the port body and the engaging claws are engaged with the first step part, the tip of the tubular part of the lock connector is prevented from entering into the partition member or retains a shallowly entered connection, while in a second connecting state that the engaging claws are engaged with the second step part, the connection is retained in the state that the tip of the lock connector forms a sufficiently large opening in the partition member. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
