ABSTRACT:
An infustion pump fluid source cartridge having a pump interface portion and a fluid source portion. The top edge of the cartridge is bevelled in the fluid source portion to permit bending of the fluid source portion to securely position the pump interface portion against the pump without distorting the pump interface portion. A pump tube mount is provided for insertion into such cartridge. The pump tube mount includes a uniquely shaped front wall and a rear wall which extends downward in order to butt up against a ledge. Tabs extend from the rear wall in order to snap into an opening beneath the ledge. A compressible tube is mounted in the tube mount by providing a cylindrical fitting having an indentation. The tube may be held in the indentation by a collar surrounding the tube in alignment with the indentation.
