Fluid interface to receive removable container
A fluidic interconnect includes a first interface including a liquid port, a gas port, and a cradle; a second interface including a liquid port, a gas port, and a swing bar to engage the cradle, a weight of a container attached to one of the first or second interfaces to drive the liquid port of the first interface into connection with the liquid port of the second interface and the gas port of the first interface into connection with the gas port of the second interface.
1. A fluidic interconnect comprising:
a first interface including a liquid port, a gas port, and a cradle;
a second interface including a liquid port, a gas port, and a swing bar to engage the cradle, a weight of a container attached to one of the first or second interfaces to drive the liquid port of the first interface into connection with the liquid port of the second interface and the gas port of the first interface into connection with the gas port of the second interface:
wherein the first interface is coupled to an instrument and the second interface is coupled to the container, the cradle and swing bar engaging further from the instrument than the liquid and gas ports.
2. The fluidic interconnect of claim 1 , wherein the container further includes a sipper internal to the container and attached to the liquid port of the container.
3. The fluidic interconnect of claim 2 , further comprising a filter attached to an end of the sipper distal from the liquid port of the container.
4. The fluidic interconnect of claim 1 , wherein the gas port of the first or second interface of the container is to receive gas from the gas port of the first or second interface coupled to an instrument.
5. The fluidic interconnect of claim 1 , wherein the liquid port of the second interface is centrally axial disposed within a sealing ring.
6. The fluidic interconnect of claim 5 , wherein the gas port of the second interface is disposed between the liquid port and the sealing ring.
7. The fluidic interconnect of claim 1 , wherein the second interface further includes a counter structure and the first interface includes a recess to receive the counter structure.
8. The fluidic interconnect of claim 7 , wherein the counter structure is disposed adjacent the liquid port on an opposite side of the liquid port from the swing bar.
9. A system comprising:
an instrument including a panel and a first interface to engage a container, the first interface including a liquid port, a gas port, and a cradle, the cradle disposed further from the panel than the liquid port;
a container including a second interface including a liquid port, a gas port, and a swing bar to engage the cradle, the container to swing toward the panel around a pivot formed when the swing bar engages the cradle to connect the liquid port of the first interface to the liquid port of the second interface and the gas port of the first interface to the gas port of the second interface, wherein the liquid port of the second interface is central-axially disposed within a sealing ring.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the container further includes a sipper internal to the container and attached to the liquid port of the second interface.
11. The system of claim 10 , further comprising a filter attached to an end of the sipper distal from the liquid port of the container.
12. The system of claim 9 , wherein the gas port of the second interface is disposed between the liquid port and the sealing ring.
13. The system of claim 9 , wherein the second interface further includes a counter structure and the first interface includes a recess to receive the counter structure.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the counter structure is disposed adjacent the liquid port on an opposite side of the liquid port from the swing bar.
