Abstract:
1. A vaporizer filler for use in conjunction with a vaporizer and an anesthetic agent bottle, the vaporizer filler comprising: a fill port defining open interior, wherein the open interior is configured to receive at least a portion of the anesthetic agent bottle; an agent reservoir configured to receive and store anesthetic agent; a valve disposed between the open interior and the agent reservoir, the valve being operable to selectively control fluid communication between the open interior and the agent reservoir; at least one vent in the fill port extending from the open interior; a circumferential seal configured to move along the interior of the fill port in conjunction with a nozzle of the anesthetic agent bottle; and an actuator on the valve, the actuator being configured to interact with the nozzle of the anesthetic bottle; wherein insertion of the nozzle into the fill port against the actuator moves the valve into an open position that permits fluid communication into the agent reservoir and positions the circumferential seal within the fill port such as to prevent fluid communication between the at least one vent and the agent reservoir.
