Cover cap and assembly kit consisting of cover cap and base cap

A cover cap for covering a medical component, the cover cap including:

• a circular-cylindrical tube section that is closed at one longitudinal end and open at its other longitudinal end;
• an edge that lies in a plane inclined to a pipe section longitudinal axis;
• and
• at least three latching lugs distributed over a circumference of the circular-cylindrical tube section and arranged at a distance from one another, the at least three latching lugs being configured to protrude radially inwards from the edge for clipping the cover cap to the medical component,
• wherein a first latching lug of the at least three latching lugs is arranged in a region of the edge that is furthest from the closed end, and
• wherein a second latching lug and a third latching lug of the at least three latching lugs are arranged along the circumference of the edge and offset by 70° to 130° from the first latching lug.

• a circular-cylindrical tube section that is closed at one longitudinal end and open at its other longitudinal end;
• an edge that lies in a plane inclined to a pipe section longitudinal axis;
• and
• at least three latching lugs distributed over a circumference of the circular-cylindrical tube section and arranged at a distance from one another, the at least three latching lugs being configured to protrude radially inwards from the edge for clipping the cover cap to the medical component,
• wherein longitudinal slots are formed in the circular-cylindrical tube section and extend from the edge in the longitudinal direction of the circular-cylindrical tube section in such a way in that between each two longitudinal slots a tab is formed that is displaced elastically in a radial direction and at the free end of which one of the at least three latching lugs is arranged.

A kit for a medical component, the kit including:

• a cover cap for covering the medical component, the cover cap including:
• a circular-cylindrical tube section that is closed at one longitudinal end and open at its other longitudinal end,
• an edge that lies in a plane inclined to a pipe section longitudinal axis, and
• at least three latching lugs distributed over a circumference of the circular-cylindrical tube section and arranged at a distance from one another, the at least three latching lugs being configured to protrude radially inwards from the edge for clipping the cover cap to the medical component;
• and
• a base cap that has a circular-cylindrical cross-section, the base cap being constructed from a plastic and having a radially outward protruding collar,
• wherein the cover cap is configured to be pushed onto the base cap in such a way that the at least three latching lugs engage the radially outward protruding collar.
