A blood line connector for a blood circuit of a hemodialysis unit with an
ability to make two different types of fluid tight connections, e.g., a
screw-type connection with a luer connector at a patient access and a
press-in type connection with a dialysate circuit. The blood line
connector may include a tube connection end arranged to sealingly engage
with a blood circuit tube, and a patient access connection end with a
frustoconical member having an internally threaded portion arranged to
engage with an externally threaded patient access, and a pair of locking
arms extending rearwardly from the frustoconical member. The locking arms
may each have a finger depression portion and a barbed portion, and may
be arranged to engage with a mating connector on the dialysis unit at the
barbed portions to lock the frustoconical member in sealing engagement
with the mating connector when making a press-in type connection.
