What is a Luer Lock Adaptor?

The Luer lock adapter includes a housing that defines an axis and an internal Luer lock element with a thread. The internal Luer lock element is located inside the housing and is rotatably mounted on the housing for rotating relative to the housing about the axis This allows the Luer lock element to rotate relative to the housing around the axis in a first rotation direction and restricts the Luer lock element to rotate relative to the housing around the axis in a second rotation direction opposite to the first rotation direction, thereby, The position of the internal Luer lock element within the housing prevents manual access to the internal Luer lock element to limit its rotation in the first rotational direction.

What is the Difference between Female and Male Luer Lock?
