Abstract

See full text

A luer connection system is provided in which a male luer connector (20) has a main body portion (22) and a front luer portion (24) with a locking ring (42) that is axially slidable along the main body portion (22). The locking ring (42) is adapted to threadedly engage a mating female luer device (52). A collar (26) is carried by the male luer connector (20) between the main body portion (22) and the front luer portion (24). The luer connector has a flexible member (38) which flexes to a stressed position when the locking ring (42) is in threaded engagement with the mating female luer device (52). In this manner, there is some stress provided in the threaded engagement to prevent the locking ring (42) from inadvertently disengaging.
