Device for simulating variable lung compliance, comprising a structure having two main components () between which an artificial lung () is situated, the main components () being adapted to be moved away from each other by the lung () when the lung is inflated and are adapted to move towards one another to force air out of the lung () in an exhalation phase; and a biasing means () acting to provide a force that acts to move the two main parts () towards one another. The biasing means comprises at least one spring (), which is selectively attachable to impose the force, upon actuation by a spring holding mechanism ().

Simulator for medical training having at least a detachable, fluid-tight hollow member comprising: The portion made of self-sealing material allows multiple punctures before having to be replaced.

Simulator for medical training with detachable self-sealing hollow member

A fastening device for interconnecting two parts, comprising a longitudinally variable bolt designed to be inserted through a hole in a first part and engage the edge of an opening in a second part. The bolt is further configured to rotate about an axis that runs generally transversely across the longitudinal axis of the bolt, using the edge of the opening in the second part as a sliding track. The bolt defines a spring configuration intermediary of its ends so that the bolt may be compressed in the longitudinal direction and resumes its original length when it is released. The bolt is provided with grooves at opposing ends, which grooves extend generally transversely across the longitudinal axis of the bolt and are designed to engage the edge of the opening in the second part at diametrically opposed locations.
