Luer connector

摘要

A fluid coupler for connecting two devices in locked fluid communication is provided which includes a body (12) having a male Luer lock connector (14) at one end connected in fluid communication with a female connector (28) at the other end. The female connector (28) is radially spaced from an outer wall (32) of the body (12) and has a Luer tapered bore (30) for receiving a male Luer tapered connector (62, 86) and a resilient locking member (40) connected to the body (12) at the other end thereof for frictionally engaging and locking the male Luer connector (62, 86) when inserted into the Luer tapered bore (30) to ensure against any subsequent fluid leakage between the connector.
