ABSTRACT:
A fluid connection assembly is provided for use with x-ray devices. The fluid connection assembly includes an adapter block configured to be attached about an opening in a housing of an x-ray device. The adapter block defines a fluid port and a cylinder in fluid communication with each other. In addition, the fluid connection assembly includes a flow adapter received in a passageway collectively defined by the cylinder of the adapter block and the opening in the housing wall. The flow adapter defines a fluid passageway configured for communication with the fluid port and the interior of the housing of the x-ray device. A sealing element is interposed between the flow adapter and the housing wall. Finally, a resilient element disposed within the cylinder of the adapter block proximate the flow adapter biases the flow adapter into contact with a shield structure inside the housing.
