Abstract
The invention relates to a connector assembly (10) for the transfer of fluids, particularly fluids comprising an active agent from a reservoir to a medical device for dosage, comprising: a first connector element (20), pertaining to the reservoir with first fixing means (23), a second connector element (10), pertaining to the medical dosage device with second fixing means (12), cooperating with the first fixing means to give an irreversible connection between the two elements. The first and second elements are embodied such as to cooperate with other by clipping on a single translational movement of a connector element relative to the other to produce the irreversible connection, characterized in that at least one of the connection elements is embodied with means to render the same breakable.
