Abstract
A connector adapted to be detachably arranged in an opening of a housing of a medical device and including a connecting element to which a single-use article can be connected outside of the housing is disclosed. Via a hollow link portion the connecting element is connected to a coupling adapted to be inserted into the interior of the housing through the opening of the housing. Moreover, the connector includes a spring element adapted to be detachably arranged at the link portion so that the connector is supported at the housing to be axially resilient via the spring element. A medical device for extracorporeal blood treatment including such connector as an interface to a single-use article, for example, is also disclosed.
