Abstract
A hub member for an infusion set device includes a body and pads configured to receive a squeezing force directed radially inward relative to an axis of the body. The body compresses radially inward relative to the axis in response to the squeezing force. A plurality of connection features on the body are moveable from a first position radially inward toward a second position when the hub member is compressed radially inward. The plurality of connection features engage one or more further connection features on a housing to attach the hub member to the housing when the plurality of connection features are in the first position, and disengage the one or more further connection features to release the hub member when the plurality of connection features are moved toward the second position.
