ABSTRACT:
A quick connect fluid coupling assembly serving as the basic building block in a unified system for fluid transmission for use in the medical and health care fields provides a safety mechanical structure for prevention against pricking from a needle or other central fluid flow conduit, while also maintaining the mechanical features of the connector separate from the fluid channel. The sharp pointed central channel of the male connector component punctures a latex diaphragm of the complimentary female connector component, with a simple push inward of the female connector component enabling the locking connection. The connection remains secure since it is the slight change of shape in the deformable material during insertion that is removed once the connection is made, at which time a completely encircling shoulder rim bars any inadvertent disconnection.
