Abstract

See full text

The female luer connector is constructed with a floating hollow needle. The needle is mounted within a collapsible tubular member with the distal end of the needle fitted into a recess of a septum integral with the collapsible member. The hollow needle is free to move transversely relative to the housing and a rigid tubular part of the connector. Eccentricity of the septum relative to the rigid tubular part is avoided and insertion of a male connector automatically aligns the septum and needle with the longitudinal axis of the rigid tubular part. Various arrangements are provided for anchoring the flange of the collapsible tubular part between the housing and rigid part in seal-tight manner.
