To provide medical devices used in diagnosis, amelioration, treatment or prevention of respiratory disorders for improved comfort, cost, efficacy, ease of use and manufacturability.SOLUTION: A connection assembly for a respiratory therapy system comprises: an outlet assembly, the outlet assembly including an outlet housing and a swiveling disc located on the outlet housing; an outlet connector 4106 located at an end of a tube portion 4102, the outlet connector including an electrical connector 4112; and a cable having a first end to connect to the electrical connector and a second end to connect to at least one electrical component of the respiratory therapy system, the cable having a slack portion. The outlet connector and the swiveling disc are rotatable in unison between a first position and a second position. The slack portion of the cable extends from the recess and wraps around the swiveling disc as the swiveling disc is rotated from the first position to the second position.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4a 【課題】快適さ、コスト、有効性、使用の容易さ、製造可能性を向上させる、呼吸器疾患の診断、改善、処置、予防に使用される医療機器を提供する。【解決手段】呼吸治療システムのための接続アセンブリは、出口ハウジングと、出口ハウジング上に位置される旋回ディスクとを含み、出口ハウジング及び旋回ディスクが少なくとも部分的に凹部を画定する、出口アセンブリと、チューブ部４１０２の端部に位置される、電気コネクタ４１１２を含む、出口コネクタ４１０６と、電気コネクタに接続する第１の端部と、呼吸治療システムの少なくとも１つの電気構成要素に接続する第２の端部とを有し、弛み部を有する、ケーブルと、を備え、出口コネクタ及び旋回ディスクが第１の位置と第２の位置との間で一体に回転でき、ケーブルの弛み部は、凹部から延在するとともに、旋回ディスクが第１の位置から第２の位置まで回転されるにつれて旋回ディスクの周囲に巻き付く。【選択図】図４ａ
