MEDICAL APPARATUS WITH A SOCKET UNIT FOR THE CONNECTION OF A DEVICE FOR SUPPLYING MEDICAL FLUIDS
First Claim
1. A medical apparatus, comprising:
- a socket unit for connecting a plug unit of a device for supplying medical fluids;
wherein the socket unit comprises at least one connection piece for connection of at least one connector of the plug unit, so that a flow connection for supply or discharge of a fluid can be produced when the connector is connected to the connection piece, and the at least one connection piece is surrounded concentrically by a connection part, thereby forming a rinsing chamber, and the socket unit comprises a closure body with at least one closure piece for closing the at least one rinsing chamber;
wherein the closure body is mounted rotatably about a rotational axis, wherein the at least one closure piece on the closure body is disposed at a distance from the rotational axis;
wherein in a first rotational position the at least one closure piece and the at least one connection part lie on a common axis, so that a connection between the closure piece and the connection part for closing the rinsing chamber can be produced by a relative movement of the plug unit and socket unit; and
wherein in a second rotational position the at least one closure piece and the at least one connection part are offset with respect to one another, so that the connection between the at least one connector of the plug unit and the at least one connection piece of the socket unit can be produced when the plug unit is inserted into the socket unit.

Abstract
A medical apparatus includes a socket unit for connecting a plug unit of a device for supplying medical fluids, in which the medical apparatus is in particular an extracorporeal blood treatment apparatus, for example an extracorporeal dialysis apparatus or an apparatus for peritoneal dialysis, or an apparatus for filling the device for supplying medical fluids. The socket unit comprises connection pieces for the connection of connectors of a plug unit, so that a flow connection can be produced for supplying or discharging a fluid. The connection pieces are surrounded by connection parts thereby forming rinsing chambers, in which the rinsing chambers are closed by closure pieces, said closure pieces being part of a closure body which is disposed rotatably on the socket unit.
