COUPLING ADAPTATOR FOR AN AIR/WATER SYRINGE TIP

摘要

A coupling adaptor (100) for use in connecting a delivery tip to an air/water tip of a fluid dispensing apparatus such as a three-way syringe. The coupling adaptor (100) includes a sidewall (110) that extends between a proximal grasping end (111) and an opposing distal coupling end (119). The sidewall (110) has an interior surface (113) defining a chamber (115) sized so as to enable an air/water tip to be positioned within the chamber (115). The coupling adaptor (100) may include structure so as to form a compression fit with a delivery tip and/or threated engagement tip with the delivery tip. The interior surface (113) of the sidewall (110) may be adapted to form a seal with the air/water ti. The coupling adaptor (100) may be formed from a flexible plastic such as polyethylene.
