Abstract

See full text

Systems and devices for controlling the delivery of a fluid are described. A latch assembly for guiding a cassette into the recess of an infusion pump housing includes a rotatable actuator connected to a movable latch. The movable latch includes one or more latch prongs that engage with the cassette. As the actuator is rotated toward its closed position, the latch prongs guide the cassette into the recess. A spring-biased release assembly holds the latch assembly closed and facilitates a secure engagement between the cassette and the recess, thereby holding the flexible tubing within the cassette in a secure engagement with the infusion pump. The latch assembly includes a magnet and a sensor in the pump housing to detect whether the latch assembly is closed.
