Component module for a reduced pressure treatment system
First Claim
1. A reduced pressure treatment component module comprising:
- a substantially elliptic cylindrical housing having a rim, a recessed end surface, and an extension;
a mounting assembly fixed to the recessed end surface, the mounting assembly comprising an extendable first latch and an extendable second latch, wherein the first latch and the second latch each comprise a fastener bar that is substantially flush with the rim when the first latch and the second latch are not extended;
a first aperture through the mounting assembly and recessed end surface;
a second aperture through the extension;
a control system contained within the housing, the control system having a communication controller;
a communication plug coupled to the serial bus controller and protruding through the first aperture; and
a communication port coupled to the serial bus controller and exposed to the second aperture.

Abstract
A connectable component module for a reduced pressure treatment system is provided. The module includes a housing with a rim, a recessed end surface, and an extension. A mounting assembly is fixed to the recessed end surface and includes extendable latches. The latches include a fastener bar that is flush with the rim when the latches are not extended. The module also generally includes a control system contained within the housing. The control system has a communication controller, a communication plug coupled to the communication controller and protruding through an aperture in the mounting assembly and recessed end, and a communication port coupled to the communication controller and exposed to an aperture in the extension.
