Patent ID: 8343137

Claim:
A medical connector, comprising: a first tubular body having at least a first end portion, a second end portion located opposite the first end portion and an intermediate portion arranged between the first end portion and the second end portion, the first end portion defining at least a part of a truncoconical internal seal surface having a predetermined degree of conicity, the second end portion defining at least a part of a connection zone configured for connection with a fluid transport tube; a radial projection borne by the intermediate portion, the radial projection having a maximum external diameter; a second tubular body having a third end portion and a fourth end portion which are opposite one another, the third end portion at least partly surrounding the first end portion, the fourth end portion at least partly surrounding the second end portion and the intermediate portion, the third end portion having an external screw-coupling surface, the second tubular body being free to rotate with respect to the first tubular body about a rotation axis which is coaxial to the external screw-coupling surface; the fourth end portion having a minimum internal diameter which is greater than the maximum external diameter of the radial projection; an insert which is solidly connected to the fourth end portion of the second tubular body; a first stop surface borne by the second tubular body, the first stop surface being configured to interact with the radial projection such as to limit an axial displacement of the first tubular body with respect to the second tubular body in a first axial displacement direction which goes from the fourth end portion to the third end portion; a second stop surface borne by the insert, the second stop surface being configured to interact with the radial projection such as to limit an axial displacement of the first tubular body with respect to the second tubular body in a second axial displacement direction which is opposite the first axial direction.
