Publication number: 20120271246Abstract: A valved male luer connector includes a resilient hollow element enclosing a tubular member having an inlet portion and an outlet portion. A collar is axially displaceable to cause a stretching deformation of the resilient hollow element so as to open a cut of a terminal wall thereof adjacent to an initial end of the inlet portion of the tubular member. The collar has a containment axial appendage of the resilient hollow element up to close to the terminal wall thereof. A stop means for limiting the stretching deformation of the resilient hollow element is provided for in the zone close to the terminal wall thereof.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 29, 2012Publication date: October 25, 2012Applicant: Industrie Borla S.P.AInventor: Gianni GUALA

Publication number: 20110060293Abstract: A valve connector for medical lines includes a tubular body having a male inlet fitting with external luer cone, which can be coupled to a female tubular fitting with internal luer cone, wherein the inlet fitting includes an internally threaded external tubular element for screwed engagement with the female fitting, and an internal tubular element that can be displaced axially from a retracted position of closing to an advanced position of opening of the valve means that control the passage of flow through the connector. The internally threaded external tubular element is free to turn, and the arrangement is such that, when it is screwed off the female fitting and the passage of flow is closed by the valve means, the external luer cone and the internal luer cone remain axially coupled to one another by friction.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 23, 2009Publication date: March 10, 2011Applicant: INDUSTRIE BORLA S.P.A.Inventor: Gianni Guala
