Abstract:
A fitting for providing a fluid connection between a capillary and a fluidic conduit of a fluidic component, wherein the fitting comprises a capillary reception configured for receiving the capillary, a force applicator configured for being operable to apply a fixing force for fixing the capillary within the fitting, a force limitation mechanism configured for limiting the fixing force being applicable by the force applicator to the capillary, a force splitter configured for splitting the fixing force into an advance force component for advancing the capillary received in the capillary reception towards the fluidic component and into a clamping force component for clamping the capillary received in the capillary reception within the fitting, and a biasing mechanism particularly arranged between the force applicator and the force splitter and configured for biasing the force splitter against the capillary.
Abstract:
A fluidic device includes a planar structure constituted by a plurality of laminated layers and accommodating a fluid channel extending up to a surface of the planar structure, and a female adapter piece configured for a fluid-tight accommodation of a male adapter piece having a fluid conduit. The the female adapter piece is connected or connectable with the planar structure so that, when the male adapter piece is accommodated in the female adapter piece, the fluid conduit is brought in fluid-tight fluid communication with the fluid channel. The fluid channel is exposed to the female adapter piece at a lateral surface of the planar structure at which the laminated layers are exposed.
Abstract:
A fitting (200) for providing a fluid connection between a capillary (202) and a fluidic conduit (204) of a fluidic component (30), the fitting (200) comprising a male piece (240) and a female piece (250) for connection with the male piece (240), wherein the male piece (240) comprises a housing (252) with a capillary reception (212) configured for receiving the capillary (202), wherein a part of the capillary (202) being received in the capillary reception (212) is circumferentially covered by a sleeve (214), an elastic biasing mechanism (206) being arranged at least partially within the housing (252), being configured for biasing the capillary (202) against the female piece (250) and being supported by the sleeve (214), and a locking mechanism (208) being arranged at least partially within the housing (252) and being configured for locking the capillary (202) to the fitting (200).
