A grip 611 is fixed to the end of the rotating rod 610. An infrared sensor 609 is fixed to the upper surface of the support plate 608. The infrared sensor 609 is electrically connected to the first controller 607. A connecting plate 612 is fixed to the outer wall of the rotating rod 610. A second bolt 613 is threadedly connected inside the connecting plate 612. The outer wall of the second bolt 613 passes through the inside of the recycling box 2. The warning component 7 includes a pressure sensor 701. The lower surface of the pressure sensor 701 is fixed inside the bracket 1. The upper surface of the pressure sensor 701 fixes the lower surface of the recycling box 2. A second controller 702 is fixed to the outer wall of the recycling box 2. The second controller 702 is electrically connected to the pressure sensor 701. A warning light 703 is fixed to the outer wall of the recycling box 2. A controller. A rubber inner sleeve 3 is fixed inside the recycling box 2. The rubber inner sleeve 3 is used to prevent the needle from piercing through the recycling box 2. A transparent window 704 is penetrated and opened inside the recycling box 2.

[0034] Specifically, through the rotation of the first rotating rod 602 and the limitation of the limiting plate 601, combined with the meshing of the first gear 603 and the second gear 614, the automatic locking of the sealing plate 507 can be realized during the use of the whole device, avoiding the opening of the sealing plate 507 caused by accidental collision or external force, improving safety. The first controller 607 controls through the meshing linkage of the electric push rod 606 and the rack 605 to ensure that the limiting plate 601 can form a stable closed state with the sealing plate 507. The infrared sensor 609 triggers the signal of the first controller 607 by detecting whether the needle is put into the recycling box 2. The design of the rotating rod 610 and the supporting plate 608 fixes the position of the supporting plate 608 by fixing the connecting plate 612 with the second bolt 613, facilitating the user to complete the operation more easily when putting the needle, and the setting of the grip 611 also improves the convenience of the operation. The rubber inner sleeve 3 inside the recycling box 2 provides an additional protection function, which can effectively prevent the sharp needle from piercing the recycling box 2, while the transparent window 704 allows the user to directly observe the storage state of the recycling box 2 and timely judge whether it is necessary to replace the recycling box 2. The pressure sensor 701 enables the accumulation state of the waste in the recycling box 2 to be monitored in real time, and the second controller 702 drives the warning light 703 according to the feedback information of the pressure sensor 701 to timely remind the user when the waste is close to full load.

[0035] Working principle: When the needle needs to be disassembled, the user inserts the needle into the hopper 501 of the auxiliary component 5. The needle contacts the arc-shaped groove 503 of the clamping block 502 inside the hopper 501, enabling the teeth 504 of the clamping block 502 to precisely engage with the groove of the needle, thereby fixing the needle and completing the disassembly. Meanwhile, through the structural design of the hopper 501 and the flip cover 9, the disassembled needle is guided into the recycling box 2. After the needle enters the recycling box 2, the infrared sensor 609 detects the presence of the needle and sends a signal to the first controller 607. The first controller 607 activates the electric push rod 606. The driving end of the electric push rod 606 pushes the rack 605, and the rack 605 drives the second gear 614 to rotate. The second gear 614 drives the first rotating rod 602 to rotate by meshing with the first gear 603, thereby driving the limiting plate 601 to approach the lower surface of the sealing plate 507, and finally fixing the sealing plate 507 to prevent it from accidentally opening. After the sealing plate 507 is fixed, the rotating handle 611 is rotated to drive the rotating rod 610 to rotate. The rotating rod 610 drives the connecting plate 612 and the support plate 608 to rotate synchronously, pushing the needle into the storage area of the recycling box 2. Meanwhile, the ultraviolet germicidal lamp 802 fixed on the bracket 1 by the mounting plate 801 is activated to sterilize the surfaces of the top cover 4 and the flip cover 9, ensuring the hygiene of the interior and the surrounding environment of the recycling box 2. When the storage amount of waste in the recycling box 2 reaches the set value of the pressure sensor 701, the pressure sensor 701 detects the change in internal pressure and transmits a signal to the second controller 702. The second controller 702 drives the warning lamp 703 to emit a warning signal, reminding the user that the recycling box 2 is nearly full and needs to be replaced in time. Meanwhile, the rubber inner sleeve 3 inside the recycling box 2 provides additional puncture protection, and the transparent window 704 enables the user to directly observe the state inside the recycling box 2.

[0036] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made in these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
