Device for joining a connection piece to peristaltic pump
First Claim
1. A device for joining a connection piece to a peristaltic pump, including a support (14) having a seat (15) open at the side having a shape complementary to that of part of a cross section of a connection piece (1), the connection piece having an axial abutment element (17) intended to be pressed against a face (16) of said support intersecting the axis of said seat (15), to retain the connection piece (1) axially on the support (14) counter to the force of traction exerted by the peristaltic pump (6-11) on the connection piece (1), characterized in that the abutment element (17) extends obliquely with respect to the longitudinal axis of the connection piece segment (12) to which it is attached, said support surface (16) against which said abutment element is to be pressed forming an acute angle with the direction of the force of traction exerted by said pump(6-11) on the connection piece segment (12) positioned in said seat (15).

Abstract
This device includes a support (14) provided with a semicylindrical seat (15) intended to receive a connection piece segment (12). This segment (12) has a semicircular collar (170) inclined with respect to the axis of the connection piece and intended to penetrate into a groove (16) having the same inclination as the collar (17) with respect to the axis of the semicylindrical seat 15. As a result, when a traction force is exerted by the pump on the portion of the connection piece, and the collar (17) engages the groove (16), this force tends to press the segment (12) against the seat (15) and cause self-locking of the assembly.
