US Patent 10238858 Connector and infusion set

A connector includes a housing including: an insertion section into which a male connector is insertable from an outside of the housing, and a flow path communicating with the insertion section; and an elastic valve body having a slit and configured to block the insertion section. An inner wall of the housing defining the flow path is integrally formed with a liquid barrier face. The housing is configured such that, when the male connector is inserted in the insertion section, the liquid barrier face faces a tip opening of the male connector in an insertion direction of the male connector such that liquid flowing out from the tip opening collides with the liquid barrier face.
