Publication number: 20240082560Abstract: A connector (1) is constituted by a first member (10) and a second member (40). The first member (10) has a male connecting portion (11) at a first end and a screwing structure (26) at a second end. The male connecting portion (11) is inserted into a female connecting portion (41) of the second member (40). A first engagement structure (15) is provided on the first member (10), and a second engagement structure (45) is provided on the second member (40) so as to be able to abut against the first engagement structure (15) in the circumferential direction. When a rotational force of a predetermined value or greater is applied to the first member (10) in a tightening direction (R1) of the screwing structure (26), one of the first engagement structure (15) and the second engagement structure (45) is plastically deformed by the other, so that the first member (10) is then rotatable in both forward and reverse directions relative to the second member (40).Type: ApplicationFiled: January 4, 2022Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Maho ITO, Takaya FUJII, Hitoshi TACHIZAKI, Masahiko TAKEUCHI

Publication number: 20230048460Abstract: A male connector (100) includes a first fitting structure (127) on an inner circumferential surface of a hood (120) surrounding a male member (110). A female connector (200) includes a rotating cylinder (250) rotatably provided on a female connector main body (210) that includes a partition member (220) made of an elastic material. A second fitting structure (257) is provided on an outer circumferential surface of the rotating cylinder. When the male connector is connected to the female connector, the male member passes through a slit (223) of the partition member, the female connector is inserted into the hood, and the first fitting structure fits to the second fitting structure.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 14, 2020Publication date: February 16, 2023Inventor: Hitoshi TACHIZAKI

Patent number: 9579495Abstract: A head portion (150) is provided at one end of an outer circumferential wall (101) capable of elastic compression deformation. The outer circumferential wall includes multiple compression units (110, 120) that undergo deformation due to compression force in a central axis (100a) direction. Letting N be an integer of 2 or more, the compression units each have at least either N thick portions (113) or N thin portions (123) formed at equiangular intervals with respect to the central axis such that the thickness periodically changes in the circumferential direction. The phase with respect to the central axis of the periodic change in thickness is shifted between two compression units that are neighboring in the central axis direction.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 2013Date of Patent: February 28, 2017Assignee: JMS Co., Ltd.Inventor: Hitoshi Tachizaki

Patent number: 9283366Abstract: A medical port includes a disc-shaped valve 1 in which an insertion hole is formed in a central portion 1a, a base seat 7 that supports the valve from a lower surface side, and a cover 2 that has a fitting hole exposing an upper surface of the central portion of the valve and covers at least a peripheral edge of the valve from the upper surface side, the fitting hole being formed so that when an inserting body has been inserted into the insertion hole, a fit between the inserting body and the fitting hole can cause the inserting body to be locked against the cover. An annular protrusion 1d is formed in the valve 1, the annular protrusion being continuous in the circumferential direction, and formed in the valve 1 so that in the state in which the inserting body is locked against the cover, the annular protrusion is in contact with an outer circumferential surface of a leading end portion of the inserting body.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2009Date of Patent: March 15, 2016Assignee: JMS Co., Ltd.Inventors: Tadashi Okiyama, Hitoshi Tachizaki

Patent number: 8974425Abstract: A male member (1) includes a tubular member (10) and a cover (20) covering at least a tip (11) of the tubular member. A lateral hole (14) that communicates with a flow path (13) is formed in an outer peripheral surface of the tubular member. The cover includes an outer peripheral wall (21) that can be deformed elastically by compression and a head part (23) that is provided at one end of the outer peripheral wall. The head part includes an interior cavity (24) into which the tubular member is inserted, and a slit (25) is formed in an innermost part (24a) of the interior cavity. In a state where the outer peripheral wall is not deformed by compression, an inner peripheral surface of the interior cavity contacts closely with the outer peripheral surface of the tubular member so as to block the lateral hole, and the tip of the tubular member and the innermost part of the interior cavity are spaced apart from each other.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2012Date of Patent: March 10, 2015Assignee: JMS Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hitoshi Tachizaki, Tadashi Okiyama

Publication number: 20130079744Abstract: A cylindrical body (30) that is inserted into a drug solution container (70), a connection port (15) to which a syringe (40) is connected, and a connector (50) that is connected to a port (110) of an infusion bag (100) communicate with a cavity (11) of a delivery device main body (10). A first check valve (21) that functions to permit the flow of drug solution toward the cavity from the drug solution flow path and restrict the flow of drug solution in the opposite direction is provided on a flow path between a drug solution flow path (31) of the cylindrical body and the cavity. A second check valve (22) that functions to permit the flow of drug solution toward the connector from the cavity and restrict the flow of drug solution in the opposite direction is provided on a flow path between the connector and the cavity. Drawing a plunger (45) of the syringe in and out enables a drug solution (72) contained in the drug solution container to be efficiently transferred to the infusion bag.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2011Publication date: March 28, 2013Applicant: JMS CO., LTD.Inventors: Tadashi Okiyama, Hitoshi Tachizaki
