Abstract
A bayonet mounting system includes an interchangeable component. The system also includes a housing having a cylindrical opening with a sealing surface on a radially inward facing surface and a frustoconical surface that tappers radially outwardly from the radially inward facing surface at the cylindrical opening. The frustoconical surface is configured to radially compress at least a portion of a resilient member during attachment of the interchangeable component to the housing. The housing also has a groove extending radially outward of at least a portion of the frustoconical surface configured to retain the interchangeable component to the housing in a bayonet latching fashion.
