  • Publication number: 20240316331
    Abstract: An infusion set includes a tube and a roller clamp for regulating a flow of fluid through the tube. The roller clamp includes a housing that has side walls and a crosspiece connecting the side walls and on which the tube rests. A wheel is supported on running surfaces in or on the side walls so as to be rotatable and displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the housing. The running surfaces face the crosspiece. The lengths of the running surfaces extend in the longitudinal direction of the housing, and the widths of the running surfaces extend in the transverse direction of the housing. Movement of the wheel along the running surfaces alters a cross-section of the tube. The running surfaces each form a substantially punctiform support or contact point with the wheel, on an inner portion of the running surfaces, particularly an inner portion facing the wheel.
