摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The connector for supplying medical fluids, e.g. gases, to patients comprises a tubular casing (1) with a valve (14) which is biased towards a valve seat (12) by a spring (24) fitted around the valve stem. The valve is mounted in a sleeve (9) with two chambers (10, 11) and moves up and down in the lower chamber. This has an aperture (26) in its base which is of smaller diameter than the valve, but larger diameter than the coils of the spring. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Supplying medical fluids, e.g. gases, to patients. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# Maintenance of the connector is simplified. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a cross-section of the connector. 1 : Tubular casing 9 : Sleeve 10, 11 : Chambers in sleeve 12 : Valve seat 14 : Valve 24 : Spring 26 : Aperture.
