Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connector for enteral nutrition tubing.
  • enteral nutrition tubing As is known, the enteral nutrition of a patient consists in bringing into the stomach or the intestine by means of a probe following the esophagus, a nutritive composition conditioned in a container situated at a distance and to which the probe is connected by means of a tubing called enteral nutrition tubing.
  • the invention aims, for standardization purposes, a connector of the aforementioned type which is adapted to cooperate with several predetermined formats of neck.
  • the advantage of such standardization is to reduce manufacturing costs and to require a number of tubes to be kept in stock at each place of use: this results in less storage volume and a more entertaining overall cost of tubes to keep in stock.
  • the invention provides for this purpose a device for connecting an enteral nutrition tube to a container containing a nutritive composition and provided with a neck, of the type comprising a transverse closure wall and a skirt forming with this wall a cap adapted to be fixed on this neck, characterized in that it is independent of the tubing, in that the transverse obturation wall has an area of reduced thickness adapted to be perforated by a perforating end piece mounted at one end of this tubing, and in that said skirt is part of a set of at least two elastic coaxial cylindrical skirts secured to the transverse obturation wall and which can each engage, internally or externally, on the necks of containers having at at least two different predetermined formats, one of the skirts internally has a first cylindrical wall adjacent to the transverse obturation wall and bordered at a distance therefrom by a radially internal projecting rib, so as to be able to adapt around a first neck format, having a radially external projecting rim, and a
  • Said set of skirts comprises at least a first skirt provided externally with friction ribs, and adapted to engage internally in a container neck according to a first format, and a second skirt adapted to engage externally on a container neck in a second format, - the first and second skirts are arranged on the same side of the transverse closure wall, the first format corresponds to a standard format neck of the type adapted to receive standard metal capsules, and the second format corresponds to the standard format of the bottle necks for infusion, -
  • This skirt is associated, radially inside thereof, with a second skirt adapted to engage in the smooth neck of a container in the form of a pocket.
  • this generally cylindrical wall has a diameter which decreases away from the transverse obturation wall
  • This transverse closure wall is externally limited by a cylindrical wall, adapted to pass through the clamping ring of said bottle, connected to the external wall of the skirt by an annular flange formed radially in external projection and adapted to be clamped axially between the bottle neck and the annular transverse bearing surface of the clamping ring.
  • connection 1 shown by way of example in FIGS. 1 to 3 comprises a set of several coaxial, elastic skirts, here two in number (references 2 and 3), connected to a transverse obturation wall 4 comprising an area 5 d 'reduced thickness, here arranged in the axis XX, this zone is adapted to be perforated by a perforating end piece, for example represented under the reference 6 in FIG. 4, mounted at one end of a tube 7 that this connector 1 is intended to connect to the neck of a container (not shown) containing a nutritive composition.
  • This zone 5 is here constituted by a partially closed hole (for example with a diameter equal to 4 mm).
  • skirts 2 and 3 of this connector are shaped so that each can engage, internally or externally, on necks 8A, 8B, 8C and 8D having different predetermined formats.
  • the skirts 2 and 3 are arranged on the same side of the transverse closure wall 4, the skirt 2 being located inside the skirt 3.
  • the skirt 2, or internal skirt, is provided externally with friction ribs 10 axially offset by which this internal skirt is adapted to engage and retain internally in the neck 8C and to be maintained there.
  • This neck 8C is for example a cylindrical plastic neck with smooth walls which is provided to date with a type of container shaped flexible pouch.
  • the outer diameter of this wall is for example 14.2 mm with ribs projecting over 0.5 mm.
  • the skirt 3, or external skirt, internally comprises a first cylindrical wall 11, adjacent to the closure wall 4 and bordered at a distance therefrom by a rib 12 projecting internally thanks to which this first wall can come to cover a gully 8B provided with a rim 13 under which said rib 12 engages.
  • the neck 8B preferably corresponds to the standard format of the bottles adapted to be closed by a metal cap.
  • the internal diameter of this first wall is in this case 26 mm.
  • This skirt 3 further comprises, internally, a second cylindrical wall 14 of larger diameter than the first, connected to the first by a transverse bearing surface 15, and bordered at a distance therefrom by a second projecting rib 16 internal thanks to which this second wall can come to cap a neck 8A provided with a flange 17 under which is placed said rib 16.
  • This neck 8A preferably corresponds to the standardized format of the necks of perfusion bottles. There are indeed nutritious preparations packaged in containers fitted with such necks.
  • the internal diameter of this second cylindrical wall is for example in this case equal to 30.5 mm.
  • this external skirt externally has a generally cylindrical wall 18 adapted to penetrate in the 8D neck of a container, for example a bottle.
  • this external wall 18 is slightly tapered with, in the example under consideration, a diameter which decreases by 34 mm near the transverse wall 4 to 33 mm to 23 mm thereof.
  • a cylindrical wall 19 radially bordering the transverse closure wall 4 while a flange 20 projecting radially external is formed longitudinally between the walls 18 and 19.
  • This flange 20 is adapted to be pressed axially against the neck 8D by the transverse surface 21A of a clamping ring 21 associated with this bottle, laterally encircling the transverse closure wall 4.
  • the perforator 8 formed at one end of the tubing is generally separated from it by a drip chamber 22, provided with an air intake nozzle 23.
  • a drip chamber 22 provided with an air intake nozzle 23.
  • two longitudinal channels 24 and 25 respectively connected to the interior of the chamber 22 and the end piece 23.
  • the material of the connector is of any suitable type compatible with medical requirements.
  • the wall of the internal skirt equipped with the ribs 10 is advantageously frustoconical while, where appropriate, the external skirt may include perforations.
