Inline liquid drug medical devices with linear displaceable sliding flow control member
First Claim
Patent Images
1. An inline liquid drug medical device for use with a source of physiological solution and a medicinal vessel for reconstitution and administration of a liquid drug, the device having a longitudinal device axis, and comprising:
- (a) a housing having a first port for fluid connection with the source of physiological solution, a second port for fluid connection with the medicinal vessel, a third port for liquid drug administration, said first port, said second port and said third port being co-directional with the longitudinal device axis, and a bore transversely disposed with respect to the longitudinal device axis and in flow communication with said first port, said second port and said third port;
(b) a flow control member linearly displaceable and slidable along said bore from a first flow control position to a second flow control position, wherein the flow control member directly establishes flow communication between said first port and said second port in the first flow control position for liquid drug reconstitution purposes, and movement of the flow control member from the first flow control position into the second flow control position directly establishes flow communication between said first port and said third port for liquid drug administration purposes;
(c) an actuating mechanism that is manually operated, having an initial liquid drug reconstitution position corresponding with said first flow control position and a subsequent liquid drug administration position corresponding to said second flow control position, said actuating mechanism applying a linear displace ent force for urging said flow control member to slide along said bore from said first flow control position to said second flow control position manually actuating said actuating mechanism from said initial liquid drug reconstitution position to said liquid drug administration position; and
(d) a vial adapter for snap fitting onto the medicinal vessel and including a fluid conduit member with a proximal end in a flow communication with said port and a distal end in flow communication with a puncturing cannula extending into the medicinal vessel on the medicinal vessel'"'"'s attachment to said vial adapter, and said vial adapter being removably attached to said housing along a line of detachment co-directional with the longitudinal device axis.

Abstract
Inline liquid drug medical device having a longitudinal device axis, a housing with a linear displaceable sliding flow control member displaceable along a transverse bore from a first flow control position for establishing flow communication between a first pair of ports for liquid drug reconstitution purposes to a second flow control position for establishing flow communication between a second pair of ports for liquid drug administration purposes, and a manually operated actuating mechanism for applying a linear displacement force for urging the flow control member to slide along the bore from its first flow control position to its second flow control position.
