<p>A reconstitution device (10) for placing a first container (12), such a liquid container (e.g. flexible container or syringe), in fluid communication with a second container (14), such as a drug vial. To this end, there is provided a connector device for establishing fluid communication between the diluent container and the drug vial. The connector device (10) has a first sleeve member (32) having a first end (36) and a second end (38). The first sleeve member has at the first end, a first attaching member (30) adapted to attach to the liquid container. The connector device also has a second sleeve member (34) having a first end (48) and a second end (50). The second sleeve member is movable axially with respect to the first sleeve member from an inactivated position to an activated position. The second sleeve member has a protuberance (66) on an inner surface of the second sleeve member. A second attaching member (28) is attached on the second end of the second sleeve member and is adapted to attach to the second container. The second attaching member has a sealing member (84). A piercing member (76) is positioned in the chamber and projects within the sleeve members (32, 34) for providing a fluid flow path from the first container to the second container. The piercing member is moveable from a first position in the inactivated position to a second position in the activated position wherein the piercing member moves past the protuberance, the protuberance preventing movement of the piercing member back to the first position. The device is movable from the inactivated position to the activated position by a force gnerally applied to the device outside the liquid container.</p> |
