ABSTRACT:
A connector is provided for mounting on an anesthetic vaporizer to connect the inlet of the vaporizer with a discharge port of a container of liquid anesthetic. The connector includes a first coupling attachable to the vaporizer and defining a first passage communicating at one end with the vaporizer inlet. A second coupling is attachable to the container and defines a second passage communicating at one end with the container discharge port. A third passage defined by one of the couplings and communicates with one of the first and second passages. A combination valve and mounting structure is cooperatively defined by the couplings to accommodate pivoting of the second coupling to a closed position occluding the first and second passages, to a raised fill position establishing communication between the first and second passages, and to a lowered drain position in which the first and second passages communicate through the third passage.
