  • Connector for modular physiological instruments
    Patent number: 4637749
    Abstract: An apparatus for connecting first and second physiological instrument components. The first component has an exterior first surface, and the second component has an exterior second surface. The apparatus comprises means forming a plurality of mutually parallel blades extending outward at the first surface at an acute angle with respect to a direction normal to the first surface, and means forming a plurality of mutually parallel slots extending inwardly at the second surface at the acute angle with respect to a direction normal to the second surface. The slots are sized and spaced to receive the blades to thereby connect the components. Latch means are provided for selectively latching one of the blades in its corresponding slot, and for preventing unlatching of the components when only one of the components is supported. In a preferred embodiment, the acute angle is approximately 75.degree..
