Abstract
A fluid infusion device includes a housing having a reservoir chamber that receives a fluid reservoir. The fluid reservoir has a first end and a second end. The fluid infusion device includes a connector system having a first body section coupled to a second body section. The first body section defines a bore in communication with a chamber and a counterbore of the second body section to define a fluid flow path. The chamber of the second body section is in fluid communication with a vent subsystem defined through the second body section. The vent subsystem terminates in an outlet, and the vent subsystem is to direct gas in the fluid flow path through the second body section to the outlet. The fluid infusion device includes at least one ring disposed within the reservoir chamber that cooperates with the connector system to securely couple the connector system to the housing.
