  • Quick obturation coupling connection
    Patent number: 12584577
    Abstract: A fluidic coupler includes male and female connectors, each including an inner fluid duct and a valve that is elastically displaceable in the duct wherein the valves interact with one another by mutually pushing one another into a fluidically open position in a coupling configuration and wherein the valves are elastically returned to a position in which the duct is sealed closed by closing heads in a configuration in which the two connectors are uncoupled, the body of one of the valves including a section for connecting the closing head to the free joining end with a portion that is convergent in the direction of a neck and a portion that is divergent up to the free joining end to define a widened end joining surface, and the closing head of the other valve is truncated at its free joining end to define a widened end joining surface.
