Abstract

A medical Luer connector having a male Luer body for connection to a female Luer assembly, the female Luer assembly comprising a female Luer body, a fluid channeling insert positioned within the female Luer body, a Elastomeric seal between the male Luers, and an elastomeric stop proximal to the female Luer.

Description

[0001] Cross-references to related inventions [0002] This application claims the benefit of pending Provisional Application No. 61 / 905,774, filed November 18, 2013, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to luer connectors. Background technique [0004] Luer connectors are currently standardly used to connect medical devices involved in the delivery of medical fluids and connectors for IV tubing, and may be used eg on syringes, catheters. Luer connectors consist of interlocking male (outer) and female (inner) parts that taper slightly to connect in a fluid-tight manner with a pressure or interference fit. When the male and female parts are joined using a threaded connection, the connection is known as a luer lock, which is opened and closed by twisting. Non-threaded Luer connections are commonly referred to as Luer plugs or Luer slips. [0005] The male and female luer connector portions cooper...
