A plurality of heat transfer pipes have a circumferential portion arranged at a short distance from an inner surface of a heat exchanger case while they are bundled to form a pipe group and a first chord which retracts toward a center in a direction of cylinder diameter from an arc formed by the circumferential portion. The plurality of bundled heat transfer pipes are loaded in the exchange case such that the first chord and an inner surface of the heat exchange case on a side where a heat exchange medium inlet port is attached are opposed to each other. By making a flow of a heat exchange medium to each heat transfer pipe uniform, a heat exchanger capable of obtaining high heat exchange performance is obtained.

Heat exchanger and heat-exchanger-integrated oxygenator

A heat exchanger includes a case, a bottom member and a plurality of heat transfer pipes (a pipe group) loaded in the heat exchanger case, in which blood flows from one end through the bottom member. The bottom member has an annular wall, a bottom surface, and a blood inlet port. The bottom surface is opposed to one end of the heat transfer pipe. The bottom surface includes a groove portion and a raised bottom portion provided on each of opposing end sides of the groove portion. The raised bottom portion is inclined such that a distance between the raised bottom portion on a side where the blood inlet port is provided and one end of the heat transfer pipe is smaller than a distance between the raised bottom portion opposite to the side where the blood inlet port is provided and one end of the heat transfer pipe.

A female connector including: a cylindrical core member having a luer taper on a distal inner surface thereof and a tube bonding portion formed on a proximal end inner surface and being formed with a flange at a distal extremity thereof; a cylindrical housing having a male screw formed on an outer surface thereof and mounted to an outer periphery of the core member without being fixed, and a stopper fixed at a position apart from the flange of the core member, wherein the distance (L) between the flange and the stopper is larger than the length (L) of the housing in the axial direction when a male connector is connected to the female connector.

An easily peelable film comprising a mixture of a propylene/&agr;-olefin copolymer (A), a propylene/&agr;-olefin copolymer (B) having an &agr;-olefin content different from that of the copolymer (A), and/or a propylene homopolymer (C). The easily peelable film has excellent heat resistance, flexibility, and transparency and further a broad temperature range for low temperature welding at which peelable partition walls can be formed.
