Connector for a fluid line in an extracorporeal circuit
First Claim
1. A blood chamber for an extracorporeal circuit comprising:
- at least one access port;
at least one connection line having a first end connected to said at least one access port and a second end having a connection port for fluid connection with an external element;
at least one closure element of said connection port, said closure element being at least partially openable towards an inside of said connection port.

Abstract
The connector for a fluid line of an extracorporeal circuit comprises a tubular body which internally defines a fluid passage, a first connection port predisposed for coupling to the fluid line, a second connection port predisposed for coupling to a male Luer connector borne by an external element, and a closure element of the second connection port. The closure element is formed of a breakable membrane made in a single piece with the tubular body. On coupling, the membrane is broken by the truncoconical projection of the male Luer connector. The connector connects a service line of an extracorporeal circuit to a pressure sensor of a dialysis machine.

58. A process for manufacturing a connector for a fluid line of an extracorporeal circuit, comprising an injection moulding stage of a plastic material of a single tubular body which internally defines a fluid passage, said tubular body having two oppositely-situated connection ports, and a breakable body arranged transversally for occluding the fluid passage.
