Zusammenfassung:A self-compensating chucking device may be provided. The chucking device may form a portion of a latching door handle of a door of an infusion pump. The door and a housing of the infusion pump may form a clam-shell clamp that secures infusion tubing to pumping mechanisms of the infusion pump. The latching door handle may include a latching door mechanism that includes a tapered pin. The tapered pin may extend through an outer portion of a door housing, an opening in a handle of the door, and into an opening in an inner portion of the door housing. The opening in the handle of the door may have a tapered inner surface that corresponds to the taper the tapered pin to form the chucking device. The pin may include a groove configured to accept an E-clip that retains the tapered pin within the door housing.
