Abstract: This document provides fluid handling components. For example, this document relates to taper interface connections such as, but not limited to, luer taper interface connections used to couple fluid handling components in a medical or laboratory setting. In some embodiments, the threaded connection on the male portion of the taper interface is comprised of one or two opposing tabs, rather than a 360° collar like conventional luer lock fittings. As such, the taper interface components provided herein are readily manufacturable with a lower cost than conventional fittings that have a collar. In some embodiments, the taper interface components provided herein are configured for coupling by way of a quick connection technique.

Abstract: A mechanical clamping device can include at least two contact faces, a first of the contact faces configured to travel in response to an applied force, each contact face configured to contact a sample when loaded into the mechanical clamping device. The device can further include a load element configured to cause the two contact faces to apply a clamping force to the sample when loaded into the mechanical clamping device.

Abstract translation: 本文档提供流体处理组件。 例如，本文件涉及锥形接口连接，例如但不限于用于在医疗或实验室环境中联接流体处理部件的鲁尔锥形接口连接。 在一些实施例中，锥形界面的阳部分上的螺纹连接由一个或两个相对的突片组成，而不是如常规鲁尔锁定配件的360°轴环。 因此，本文提供的锥形界面部件可以以比具有轴环的常规配件更低的成本容易地制造。 在一些实施例中，本文提供的锥形界面部件被配置为通过快速连接技术进行联接。
