[0001] This patent application claims the benefit of priority, under 35 U.S.C. Section 119(e), to Joey Magno U.S. Patent Application Serial Number 63 / 606,702, entitled “SYSTEMS AND TECHNIQUES FOR LOADING ATUBESET ON A PERISTALTIC PUMP,” filed on December 6, 2023, which is hereby incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] Examples described herein generally relate to pumping devices. More specifically, the examples described herein generally relate to systems and techniques for loading (or unloading) a tubeset on a peristaltic pump.BACKGROUND

[0002] Fluid management systems can be used in medical procedures such as surgeries, endoscopies, or other interventional treatments to provide fluid (e.g., saline, water, or other irrigating solutions), which can be used for irrigation at surgical sites. For example, during arthroscopic surgery, fluid is used to fill and expand the surgical site to create space for visualization and instrument maneuvering. The irrigation fluid can be provided to clear debris and blood from the surgical site to improve visibility. It can also be used to wash tissue clean of blood to stop minor bleeding.

[0003] Fluid management systems can provide controlled delivery of irrigation solutions and extraction of irrigating solutions mixed with blood or other surgical debris generated during medical procedures. Advanced fluid management systems can include systems for precise control of flow rates and pressure at the surgical site.SUMMARY

The motor can be operable to rotate the rotor to compress the tubeset against the casing and pump a fluid therein. An attachment platform can be attached to the housing. The attachment platform can be operable between a loading or unloading position and an operating position. A tubeset cartridge can include the tubeset. The tubeset cartridge can be configured to be attached to the attachment platform. The tubeset cartridge can be configured to move with the attachment platform as the attachment platform moves between the loading or unloading position and the operating position.

[0018] Fluid management systems can include inflow pumps and outflow pumps. Some examples of fluid management systems can include the use of a cartridge or a cassette to load the inflow tubing or the outflow tubing to their respective pump. However, the loading of cartridges or cassettes does not prevent incorrect loading of the cartridges or cassettes, whether in the incorrect pump or installed backward, and requires some expertise on peristaltic pumps to ensure proper installation.

[0019] Therefore, the present disclosure simplifies the loading and unloading of a tubeset on existing peristaltic pump designs in the market. Such a system can help prevent the loading of the tubeset in the wrong direction or the loading of the incorrect tubeset on the pump.

[0020] In examples, a peristaltic pump can be configured to manage fluid within at least one of an inflow tubeset or an outflow tubeset during a medical procedure. The peristaltic pump can include a housing, an inflow casing, a first motor, an inflow rotor, an inflow attachment platform, and an inflow tubeset cartridge. The inflow casing can be attached to the housing. The first motor can be installed within the housing. The inflow rotor can be attached to the first motor such that at least a portion of the inflow rotor extends outside the housing. The first motor can be operable to rotate the inflow rotor and compress the inflow tubeset against the inflow casing to pump a fluid toward a site of the medical procedure. The inflow attachment platform can be attached to the housing. The inflow tubeset cartridge can be configured to be attached to the inflow attachment platform. The inflow tubeset cartridge can include the inflow tubeset. The peristaltic pump can also include an outflow casing, a second motor, anoutflow rotor, an outflow attachment platform, and an outflow tubeset cartridge. The second motor can be installed within the housing. The outflow rotor can be attached to the second motor such that at least a portion of the outflow rotor extends outside the housing. The second motor can be operable to rotate the outflow rotor and compress the outflow tubeset against the outflow casing to pump the fluid away from the site of the medical procedure. The outflow attachment platform can be attached to the housing. The outflow tubeset cartridge can be configured to be attached to the outflow attachment platform. The outflow tubeset cartridge can include the outflow tubeset. Each of the inflow attachment platform and the outflow attachment platform can be configured to operate between a loading or unloading position and an operating position. The inflow tubeset cartridge can be configured to move with the inflow attachment platform between the loading or unloading position and the operating position. The outflow tubeset cartridge can be configured to move with the outflow attachment platform between the loading or unloading position and the operating position.

[0021] In examples, a peristaltic pump can be configured to manage fluid within a tubeset during a medical procedure. The peristaltic pump can include a housing, a casing, a motor, a rotor, an attachment platform, and a tubeset cartridge. The casing can be attached to the housing. The motor can be installed within the housing. The rotor can be attached to the motor such that at least a portion of the rotor extends outside the housing. The motor can be operable to rotate the rotor and compress the tubeset against the casing to pump a fluid therein. The attachment platform can be attached to the housing. The attachment platform can be operable between a loading or unloading position and an operating position. The tubeset cartridge can include the tubeset. The tubeset cartridge can be configured to be attached to the attachment platform such that the tubeset cartridge moves with the attachment platform as the attachment platform moves between the loading or unloading position and the operating position.

[0022] FIG. 1 illustrates an example of a peristaltic pump 100. The peristaltic pump 100 can be configured to generate pressure within tubing ortubesets (e.g., an inflow tubeset 110 or an outflow tubeset 120) to pump a fluid therein. In examples, the peristaltic pump 100 can be used for medical procedures, such as, for example, blood transfusions, blood donations, fluid transport, any other fluid handling for medical procedures, or the like. The peristaltic pump 100 can also include a housing 102, an inflow casing 104, an inflow rotor 106, an inflow attachment platform 108, an inflow tubeset 110, an inflow tubeset cartridge 112, an outflow casing 114, an outflow rotor 116, an outflow attachment platform 118, an outflow tubeset 120, and an outflow tubeset cartridge 122.

[0023] The housing 102 can be configured to protect the internal components of the peristaltic pump 100 and provide support for the external components of the peristaltic pump 100. The housing 102 can be a console box, as shown in FIG. 1 . In other examples, the housing 102 can be any other shape that can contain the internal components of the peristaltic pump 100 and support the external components of the peristaltic pump 100.

[0024] The inflow portions of the peristaltic pump 100, which include the inflow casing 104, the inflow rotor 106, the inflow attachment platform 108, the inflow tubeset 110, and the inflow tubeset cartridge 112, and the outflow portions of the peristaltic pump 100, which include the outflow casing 114, the outflow rotor 116, the outflow attachment platform 118, the outflow tubeset 120, and the outflow tubeset cartridge 122 can be configured to provide fluid to a patient, or to a site of the medical procedure being performed on the patient, and draw fluid (and debris) awayfrom the patient, or the site of the medical procedure, respectively. The inflow portions and outflow portions of the peristaltic pump 100 can include similar components, thus, for the sake of efficiency, they will be discussed together in reference to FIG. 1 .

[0025] The casings (the inflow casing 104 and the outflow casing 114) can be configured to guide the tubesets (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 and the outflow tubeset 120) as it rotates about the rotors (the inflow rotor 106 and the outflow rotor 116). The casings (the inflow casing 104 and the outflow casing 114) can also provide a rigid surface that the rotors (the inflow rotor 106 and the outflow rotor 116) can compress the tubesets (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 and theoutflow tubeset 120) against to generate pressure differences within the tubesets (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 and the outflow tubeset 120) as the rotors (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 and the outflow rotor 116) rotate. The casings (e.g., the inflow casing 104 and the outflow casing 114) can be directly attached to the housing 102 and extend outward from the housing 102. In another example, the casings (e.g., the inflow casing 104 and the outflow casing 114) can be attached to a removable base such that the casings can be easily coupled to, and removed from, the housing 102. As shown in FIG. 1 , the casings (e.g., the inflow casing 104 and the outflow casing 114) can include a semi-circular profile such that the inflow casing 104 surrounds a majority of the rotors (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 and the outflow rotor 116).

[0026] The rotors (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 and the outflow rotor 116) can be attached to motors (e.g., a first motor 502 (FIG. 5) and a second motor 504 (FIG. 5)), such that the motors can rotate the rotors in either a clockwise or a counterclockwise direction. At least a portion of the rotors (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 and the outflow rotor 116) can extend outside of the housing 102. The rotors (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 and the outflow rotor 116) can be configured to receive the tubesets (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 and the outflow tubeset 120) and can compress the tubesets against the casings (e.g., the inflow casing 104 and the outflow casing 114) to generate pressure differentials and pump fluid within the tubesets.

[0027] The attachment platforms (e.g., the inflow attachment platform 108 and the outflow attachment platform 118) can be attached to the housing 102 and can be configured to receive the tubesets (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 and the outflow tubeset 120) to removably couple the tubesets to the housing 102. As shown in FIG. 1 , the attachment platforms are two separate platforms (e.g., the inflow attachment platform 108 and the outflow attachment platform 118), in another example, the attachment platforms can be a single attachment platform that can be configured to receive both of the inflow tubeset 110 and the outflow tubeset 120. Each of the attachment platforms are configured to operate between a loading or unloading position 302 (FIG. 3) and an operating position 606 (FIG. 6), which will be discussed in more details herein.

[0028] The tubesets (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 and the outflow tubeset 120) can be configured to carry fluid therein. The tubesets can be attached to the tubeset cartridges (e.g., the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 and the outflow tubeset cartridge 122, respectively). The tubesets can extend from the tubeset cartridges and form a loop that can extend around the rotors (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 and the outflow rotor 116). The tubeset cartridges (e.g., the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 and the outflow tubeset cartridge 122) can include the tubesets (e.g., the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 and the outflow tubeset cartridge 122) and can be configured to be attached to the attachment platforms (e.g., the inflow attachment platform 108 and the outflow attachment platform 118).

[0029] The combination of the attachment platforms (e.g., the inflow attachment platform 108 and the outflow attachment platform 118) and the tubeset cartridges (the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 and the outflow tubeset cartridge 122) enables easy changing of the tubesets (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 and the outflow tubeset 120) from the peristaltic pump 100. Moreover, the attachment platforms and the tubeset cartridges can provide a foolproof way of ensuring that the inflow tubing and the outflow tubing are installed on the peristaltic pump 100 correctly. The easy changes of the tubesets and the foolproof connection of the tubing will be discussed in more detail herein.

[0030] In the example shown in FIG. 1 , the peristaltic pump 100 includes both an inflow portion and an outflow portion. In another example, the peristaltic pump 100 can include a single pump head with a casing, a rotor, and an attachment platform. Such a system could be programmed to either supply or remove fluid from the surgical site within the patient and could be loaded the same way regardless of whether it is being used for inflow or outflow pumping. In such a pump, the designs discussed in this disclosure would be beneficial as it would provide an easier way of installing the tubeset without requiring training or expertise in peristaltic pumps.

[0031] FIG. 2 illustrates a front view of an example of the peristaltic pump 100. In examples, the inflow portions of the peristaltic pump 100 (e.g., the inflow casing 104, the inflow rotor 106, the inflow attachment platform 108, the inflow tubeset 110, and the inflow tubeset cartridge 112) can operate independentlyfrom the outflow portions of the peristaltic pump 100 (e.g., the outflow casing 114, the outflow rotor 116, the outflow attachment platform 118, the outflow tubeset 120, and the outflow tubeset cartridge 122). The same is true for the outflow portions being able to operate independently from the inflow portions. Here, the peristaltic pump 100 can be used to either supply fluid toward the patient or draw fluid from the patient. In another example, the outflow portions and the inflow portions can be tied together such that the inflow attachment platform 108 and the outflow attachment platform 118 are a single platform and both of the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 and the outflow tubeset cartridge 122 can be loaded or unloaded, or in operation, simultaneously.

[0032] FIG. 3 illustrates a schematic diagram of an example of an inflow attachment platform 108 in a loading or unloading position 302. Although the inflow attachment platform 108 is shown, the outflow attachment platform 118 (first shown in FIG. 1 ) functions similarly to the inflow attachment platform 108. Both of the inflow attachment platform 108 and the outflow attachment platform 118 can include an actuation device 304. The actuation device 304 can be configured to operate the inflow attachment platform 108 or the outflow attachment platform 118 between a loading or unloading position 302 and an operating position 606 (shown in FIG. 6). The loading or unloading position 302 will be discussed in more detail in FIG. 5 and FIG. 8.

[0033] FIG. 4 illustrates an example of the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 coupled to an example of the inflow attachment platform 108. FIG. 4 also includes line indicator402, which shows a portion that will be enlarged in FIG. 10. Although, the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 is shown, the outflow tubeset cartridge 122 (first shown in FIG. 1 ) functions similarly to the inflow tubeset cartridge 112. Similarly, although the inflow attachment platform 108 is shown in FIG. 4, the outflow attachment platform 118 (first shown in FIG. 1 ) functions similarly to the inflow attachment platform 108. Each of the inflow attachment platform 108 and the outflow attachment platform 118 can include an attachment interface 404. The attachment interface 404 can include a first protrusion 406 and a second protrusion 408. Each of the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 and the outflow tubeset cartridge 122 can include a coupling mechanism 410. The coupling mechanism410 can include a first engagement member 412, a second engagement member 414, a first tubeset holder416, and a second tubeset holder 418.

[0034] The attachment interface 404 can be configured to receive the respective tubeset cartridge (e.g., the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 or the outflow tubeset cartridge 122). In examples, the attachment interface 404 can engage with the coupling mechanism 410 to removably couple the tubeset cartridge to the attachment platform.

[0035] The protrusions (e.g., the first protrusion 406 and the second protrusion 408) can be configured to engage with the coupling mechanism 410 to removably couple the tubeset cartridge and the attachment platform. The second protrusion 408 can extend in a direction opposite from the first protrusion 406.

[0036] The first engagement member 412 can be pivotably attached to the first tubeset holder 416 and the second engagement member 414 can be pivotably attached to the second tubeset holder 418. As such, a user can squeeze the first engagement member 412 and the second engagement member 414 toward each other to attach or detach the coupling mechanism 410 and the attachment interface 404.

[0037] The first tubeset holder 416 and the second tubeset holder418 can be configured to hold either of the inflow tubeset 110 or the outflow tubeset 120. The tubeset holders (e.g., first tubeset holder 416 and the second tubeset holder 418) hold the tubeset (inflow tubeset 110 or the outflow tubeset 120) within the tubeset cartridge (e.g., the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 and the outflow tubeset cartridge 122). The attachment interface 404 and the coupling mechanism 410 will be discussed in more detail with reference to FIG. 10.

[0038] FIG. 5 illustrates a side view of an example of the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 loaded into an example of the peristaltic pump 100 with an example of the inflow tubeset 110 in the engagement layer 506 of the inflow rotor 106. Although inflow components of the peristaltic pump 100 are shown in FIG. 5, the outflow components can include similar features and function.

[0039] As discussed herein, the rotors (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 or the outflow rotor 116) can include the engagement layer 506. The engagement layer 506 can be configured to receive the tubeset (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 or theoutflow tubeset 120) and prepare the received tubeset to be installed or uninstalled from the respective rotor.

[0040] As shown in FIG. 5, the inflow attachment platform 108 can be in the loading or unloading position 302. In the loading or unloading position 302, the tubeset cartridge (e.g., the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 or the outflow tubeset cartridge 122) can be aligned with the engagement layer 506 of the rotor (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 or the outflow rotor 116).

[0041] Also shown in FIG. 5, the peristaltic pump 100 can include the first motor 502 and the second motor 504, each of which can be installed within the housing 102. In examples, the first motor 502 can be connected to the inflow rotor 106 and operable to rotate the inflow rotor 106 in either of the first direction 612 (FIG. 6) orthe second direction 804 (FIG. 8). In examples, the peristaltic pump 100 can be turned off as the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 or the outflow tubeset cartridge 122 are loaded into the inflow attachment platform 108 or the outflow attachment platform 118, respectively. As such, the motors (e.g., first motor 502 or the second motor 504) can be isolated from power such that they do not rotate the rotors (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 or the outflow rotor 116).

[0042] FIG. 6 illustrates a side view of an example of the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 loaded into an example inflow attachment platform 108 with an example inflow tubeset 110 within the guide path 602 of an example of the inflow rotor 106. Although inflow components of the peristaltic pump 100 are shown in FIG. 6, the outflow components can include similar features and function.

[0043] In examples, the guide path 602 can extend between the engagement layer 506 and the working layer 604. The guide path 602 can be configured to guide the tubeset (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 or the outflow tubeset 120) from the engagement layer 506 to the working layer 604 when the rotor (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 or the outflow rotor 116) rotates in a first direction 612. The guide path 602 can also be configured to guide the respective tubeset (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 orthe outflow tubeset 120) from the working layer 604 to the engagement layer 506 when the rotor (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 or the outflow rotor 116) rotates in a second direction 804 (FIG. 8).

[0044] The peristaltic pump 100 can also include a sensor 608, which can be installed within the housing 102. The sensor 608 can be configured to generate a first signal 610 on condition that the outflow attachment platform 118 is in the operating position 606. In response to receiving the first signal 610, the motor (e.g., the first motor 502 or the second motor 504) can rotate the rotor (the inflow rotor 106 or the outflow rotor 116) in the first direction 612. As the rotor rotates in the first direction 612 it can guide the tubing (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 or the outflow tubeset 120) into the guide path 602 to move from the engagement layer 506 to the working layer 604.

[0045] In other words, in the operating position 606, the attachment platform (e.g., inflow attachment platform 108 or the outflow attachment platform 118) can enact a downward force on the tubeset (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 or the outflow tubeset 120), which can work in concert with the rotor (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 or the outflow rotor 116) rotating in the first direction 612 to guide the tubeset into the guide path 602 toward the working layer 604. As the rotor continues to rotate in the first direction 612 the tubeset can continue to be guided toward the working layer 604. Once the tubeset is in the working layer 604, the rotor can continue to rotate in the first direction 612 to pump liquid within the tubeset. In examples, in response to receiving the signal (e.g., the first signal 610) the motor (e.g., the first motor 502 or the second motor 504) can rotate the rotor (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 or the outflow rotor 116) at a reduced speed, such as 5- 10 RPM, for a set number of rotations. After the set number of rotations is met, the motor can return to the speed required to meet the set speed of the peristaltic pump 100. In another example, the peristaltic pump 100 can include a step where the user of the peristaltic pump 100 has to confirm proper installation of the tubing and manually start the pump to pumping speeds after the installation of a new tubeset cartridge.

[0046] FIG. 7 illustrates a side view of an example of the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 loaded into an of the inflow attachment platform 108 with an example of the inflow tubeset 110 is installed in an example of the working layer 604. Although inflow components of the peristaltic pump 100 are shown in FIG. 7, the outflow components can include similar features and function.

[0047] The working layer 604 can be configured to generate pressure within a tubeset (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 or the outflow tubeset 120) as the rotor (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 or the outflow rotor 116) rotates to manage fluid during the medical procedure. As discussed herein, the working layer 604 of the inflow rotor 106 can be configured to pump liquid toward a patient, or a site of the medical procedure within the patient and the working layer 604 of the outflow rotor 116 can be configured to pump liquid (or debris) way from the patient, or the site of the medical procedure within the patient.

[0048] As the inflow attachment platform 108 is in the operating position 606, the sensor 608 can generate the first signal 610, and in response to the first signal 610 the motors (e.g., the first motor 502 or the second motor 504) can rotate the rotors in the first direction 612 to pump the liquid within the tubeset. To facilitate the pumping of the liquid within the tubeset, the working layer 604 can include one or more compression members 702. The compression members 702 can be configured to compress the tubeset (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 or the outflow tubeset 120) against the casings (e.g., the inflow casing 104 or the outflow casing 114) as the rotors (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 or the outflow rotor 116) rotate. The compression of the tubeset caused by the compression member 702 and the casings can cause pressure differentials within the tubesets, which can pump the liquid within the tubeset their desired location.

[0049] FIG. 8 illustrates a side view of an example of the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 loaded into an example of the inflow attachment platform 108 with an example of the inflow tubeset 110 transitioning to the engagement layer 506. Although inflow components of the peristaltic pump 100 are shown in FIG. 8, the outflow components can include similar features and function.

[0050] When it is time to remove the tubeset (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 or the outflow tubeset 120), the actuation device 304 can be actuated to move the inflow attachment platform 108 into the loading or unloading position 302. As the inflow attachment platform 108 moves into the loading or unloading position 302, the sensor 608 can generate a second signal 802. In response to receiving the second signal 802, the motors (e.g., the first motor 502 or the second motor 504) can rotate the inflow rotor 106 in the second direction 804.

[0051] As the rotor (e.g., the inflow rotor 106 or the outflow rotor 116) rotates in the second direction 804, the tubeset (e.g., the inflow tubeset 110 or the outflow tubeset 120) can be guided from the working layer 604 to the guide path 602 by the upward force generated by the attachment platform (e.g., the inflow attachment platform 108 or the outflow attachment platform 118) being in the loading or unloading position 302 and catching the guide path 602 because the rotor is rotating in the second direction 804. As the rotor rotates in the second direction 804 the tubeset can be guided from the working layer 604 toward the engagement layer 506. Once the tubeset is in the engagement layer 506, the peristaltic pump 100 can be turned off, or the motor (e.g., the first motor 502 or the second motor 504) can be turned off to stop rotating the rotor to aid in the unloading of the tubeset cartridge and the loading of the next tubeset cartridge. In another example, the rotor can continue to rate in the first direction 612 and the tubeset cartridge can be removed and a new tubeset cartridge can be installed on the engagement layer 506 of the inflow rotor 106.

[0052] FIG. 9 illustrates an isometric view of an example of a tubeset cartridge (e.g., the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 or the outflow tubeset cartridge 122). The first engagement member 412 and the second engagement member 414 can include a distance 902 of spacing therebetween. In examples, the distance 902 of spacing between the first engagement member 412 and the second engagement member 414 can be different for the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 and the outflow tubeset cartridge 122. Similarly, a distance between the first protrusion 406 (FIG. 4) and the second protrusion 408 (FIG. 4) of the attachment interface 404 (FIG. 4) can be complementary to the distance 902 between the first engagement member 412 and the second engagement member 414. The varying distances (e.g., the distance 902 between the first engagement member 412 and the second engagement member 414 and the distance between the first protrusion 406 and the second protrusion 408 of the attachment interface 404) can provide a foolproof connection (poke yoke) between the tubeset cartridge and their respective attachment platforms. The first engagement member 412 and the second engagement member 414 can be configured to be squeezedtogether during the installation and removal of the tubeset cartridge from the attachment platform.

[0053] FIG. 10 illustrates an enlarged view as indicated by line indicator 402 in FIG. 4 of an example of an inflow tubeset cartridge 112 being coupled to an example of the inflow attachment platform 108. Although inflow components of the peristaltic pump 100 are shown in FIG. 10, the outflow components can include similar features and function. The first engagement members (e.g., the first engagement member 412 and the second engagement member 414 (FIG. 4) can extend between a first end portion 1002 and a second end portion 1004.

[0054] The first end portion 1002 can be configured to be engaged by a user for installation and removal of the tubeset cartridge (e.g., the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 or the outflow tubeset cartridge 122) from the attachment platform (e.g., the inflow attachment platform 108 or the outflow attachment platform 118). As shown in FIG. 10, as the first end portion 1002 can be engaged by the user to pivot the first engagement member 412 relative to the first tubeset holder 416 such that the second end portion 1004 clears the first protrusion 406 such that the tubeset cartridge can either be installed on or removed from the attachment platform.

[0055] As shown in FIG. 10, the second end portion 1004 can include a tapered surface 1006 to help with the installation of the tubeset cartridge (e.g., the inflow tubeset cartridge 112 or the outflow tubeset cartridge 122) onto the attachment platform (e.g., the inflow attachment platform 108 or the outflow attachment platform 118). For example, the tapered surface 1006 can help guide the second end portion 1004 of the first engagement member 412 outward as user is trying to install the tubeset cartridge on the attachment platform and the second end portion 1004 contacts the first protrusion 406. The second end portion 1004 can also include an engagement surface 1008, which can be configured to engage with the first protrusion 406 to hold the tubeset cartridge and the attachment platform together after the tubeset cartridge has been coupled to the attachment platform.
