Adjustable seal

Abstract

A medical device is adapted to seal around elongate shafts of varying diameter therethrough. The medical device includes a plurality of elastomeric sealing members together defining a variable dimension aperture, a chuck body, and a chuck ring that is rotatably secured relative to the chuck body. The medical device is adapted such that rotating the chuck ring in a first direction causes the plurality of elastomeric sealing members to move closer together, thereby reducing a size of the variable dimension aperture, and rotating the chuck ring in a second direction causes the plurality of elastomeric sealing members to move farther apart, thereby increasing a size of the variable dimension aperture.
