Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical waste, in particular to a medical waste treatment device. Background Art
[0002] Medical waste can be divided into five categories: pathological waste, infectious waste, pharmaceutical waste, chemical waste and injury waste. The significance of medical waste classification is to prevent cross infection and environmental pollution. By classifying and treating medical waste, the mixing of infectious waste and general domestic waste can be effectively reduced, the risk of cross infection can be reduced, and the safety of medical staff and the environment can be protected.
[0003] However, the traditional method of medical waste classification is often that medical staff manually store medical waste in different containers. This method increases space and economic costs, while also prolonging the treatment process for medical staff and increasing the risk of pathogen transmission. Due to these drawbacks, there is a need for a medical waste treatment device that can classify and store different types of medical waste and perform preliminary disinfection on them. Utility Model Content
[0004] (I) Technical problems solved: In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a medical waste treatment device, which has the advantages of being able to classify and store multiple types of medical waste at the same time and having a disinfection function, thus solving the problem of numerous operations and complicated processes for medical staff in classifying and treating medical waste.
[0005] (II) Technical solution: In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose of being able to store multiple medical wastes at the same time and disinfect them, the utility model provides the following technical solution: a medical waste treatment device, including a shell, a baffle, and a storage tank, a screw rod is provided on one side of the shell, and a slide rail is provided on the other side, one end of the storage tank is threadedly connected to the screw rod, and the other end is slidably connected to the slide rail, a motor is provided inside the shell, and the power output end of the motor is fixedly connected to the screw rod, a delivery hole is provided at the top of the shell, a discharge port is provided on one side of the outer wall of the shell, and a baffle is provided at the bottom of the delivery hole. When in use, the rotation of the motor is controlled to control the rotation of the screw rod, and the screw rod provides power for the movement of the storage tank. When a type of medical waste is delivered, one of the storage tanks can be moved to the bottom of the delivery hole, and the other storage tanks are away from the delivery hole. When other medical waste is to be delivered, only one moving storage tank needs to be replaced. The above measures can achieve the purpose of classifying and collecting medical waste and storing it at the same time. When it is necessary to transfer medical waste, it is only necessary to control the rotation direction of the screw rod so that the storage tank is pushed to the discharge port.
[0006] Preferably, a torsion spring is provided at the bottom end of the baffle, and the baffle is movably connected to the shell through the torsion spring.
[0007] Preferably, a UV lamp is provided at the bottom end of the baffle.
[0008] Preferably, an operating switch is provided on one side of the housing, and the operating switch controls the movement of the motor.
[0009] Preferably, a waste stopper is provided inside the shell to guide the falling direction of the medical waste.
[0010] Preferably, a hinge is provided at the top of the discharge port.
[0011] (III) Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides a medical waste treatment device with the following beneficial effects:
[0012] 1. The medical waste treatment device uses a storage trough, a screw rod and a slide rail in coordination. Specifically, when the screw rod rotates, the storage trough moves on the screw rod and the slide rail. Therefore, by controlling the movement of multiple storage troughs, one of the storage troughs can be moved below the delivery hole, and the remaining storage troughs can be moved away from the delivery hole, thereby achieving the purpose of classified collection of medical waste, saving usage space, and simplifying the operation steps.
[0013] 2. The medical waste treatment device uses a baffle, a torsion spring and a UV lamp in coordination. Specifically, when the medical waste is put into the delivery hole, the gravity of the medical waste will press the baffle down, causing the medical waste to fall into the storage trough below. After the medical waste falls, the baffle will block the delivery hole again under the action of the torsion spring, thereby resealing the inside of the shell and avoiding the spread of pathogens in the medical waste. At the same time, the UV lamp starts working, so that the device can disinfect the delivered medical waste in time, thereby improving safety and avoiding the spread of pathogens caused by the long medical waste sorting process by medical staff.

[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0020] See also Figure 1-4 The medical waste treatment device includes a shell 1, a baffle 2, and a storage tank 3.
[0021] A baffle 2 is provided below the storage trough 3, and a torsion spring is provided at the bottom of the baffle 2. The design intention of this structure is that since the pathogens and pollutants in the medical waste may be transmitted through the air, a structure is required to seal the interior of the shell 1. However, at the same time, in order to make the entire device more convenient and easy to operate, a torsion spring 21 is provided at the bottom of the baffle 2. When medical waste accumulates above the baffle 2, the medical waste will press the torsion spring 21 to twist due to its own gravity, thereby tilting the baffle 2 and letting the medical waste fall. At the same time, the torsion spring 21 will lift up the baffle 2 and reseal the device because the force above it disappears. This component enables the entire device to maintain good sealing while being able to more conveniently throw in garbage without manually opening the lid or touching the inside of the shell 1, thereby avoiding the risk of pollutant transmission. A plurality of UV lamps 22 are arranged at the bottom of the baffle 2. The UV lamps can kill pathogens efficiently, conveniently and without pollution in a short time. At the same time, due to the arrangement of the baffle 2, the ultraviolet light generated by the UV lamp 22 can be prevented from irradiating the human skin, so as to avoid causing damage to the body of medical staff. The cooperation of the two enables the entire device to kill pathogens on medical waste in a timely manner and further protect the safety of medical staff. A screw rod 31 is arranged on one side of the housing 1, and a slide rail 32 is arranged on the other side. The screw rod 31 is transmitted through the structure with the storage tank 3 through its own threaded structure, and the storage tank 3 can be controlled to achieve precise movement and positioning. Inside the housing 1, the screw rod 31 occupies the space on one side, and the slide rail 32 on the other side is a sliding structure, which provides a stable mobile platform for the storage tank 3 inside the housing 1, and plays a guiding role while also supporting the storage tank 3. The design of the slide rail 32 allows the storage tank 3 to slide on it without getting stuck or shaking. One end of the storage tank 3 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 31, and the other end is slidably connected to the slide rail 32. This connection method allows the storage trough 3 to move precisely along the slide rail 32 under the drive of the screw rod 31. This design enables the entire system to complete the predetermined task efficiently and accurately. The motor 311, as the driving core, is fixedly connected to the inside of the housing 1. It provides a continuous source of power for the screw rod 31, so that the screw rod 31 can rotate continuously and stably, and further control the position of the storage trough 3. The precise control of the motor 311 makes the rotation of the screw rod 31 more precise, thereby ensuring the stability and accuracy of the entire system. At the top of the housing 1, an operating switch 12 is set. This operating switch 12 is the control center of the entire system. It can receive external instructions and then control the movement of the motor 311. By operating the switch 12, we can control the movement of the storage trough 3 on the screw rod 31, thereby achieving the precise position control we want. A discharge port 14 is provided on the outer wall of one side of the housing 1, which is the key channel for material output.A hinge 13 is provided at the top of the discharge port 14, which allows the discharge port 14 to be easily opened or closed. This design allows the discharge port 14 to be pushed open through the storage tank 3 without further manual operation when the storage tank 3 delivers medical waste, saving manpower while improving safety, and preventing medical staff from contacting the inside of the shell 1 and causing the spread of pathogens. A plurality of waste blocks 15 are provided inside the shell 1, and the purpose of these blocks is to ensure that the medical waste can fall to the top of the storage tank 3 according to a pre-set path, so as to achieve the purpose of classifying and collecting medical waste.
[0022] Working principle: When using the device, first prepare the medical waste to be processed, and then add the classified medical waste to the delivery hole 11. The medical waste will fall on the baffle 2 due to its own gravity. At the same time, the torsion spring 21 under the baffle 2 moves downward due to the gravity above the baffle 2, thereby causing the entire baffle 2 to move downward. At this time, the baffle 2 is tilted, and the medical waste will fall due to its own gravity. Medical staff can control the movement of the screw rod 31 and the motor 311 by operating the switch 12. By controlling the movement direction of each screw rod 31, the movement direction of each storage slot 3 can be controlled. When it is necessary to classify a certain type of medical waste, it is only necessary to control the motor 311 to rotate, so that the screw rod 31 drives the storage slot 3 to move, and the required storage slot 3 is moved to the bottom of the delivery hole 11, and all other storage slots 3 are moved to the direction of the principle delivery hole 11. After the medical waste is delivered, the medical waste will fall into it. When it is necessary to classify and deliver other medical waste, it is only necessary to control other storage slots 3 to replace the position of the previous storage slot 3. A plurality of waste blocks 15 are arranged inside the shell 1. The waste blocks 15 will play a guiding role, limit the falling path of the medical waste, and ensure that it falls accurately to the storage slot 3 at the bottom of the delivery hole 11, thereby achieving the purpose of classifying, collecting and storing medical waste. At the same time, since the baffle 2 and the discharge port 14 are both in close contact with the shell 1, the entire shell 1 is closed, and the medical waste and pathogens on its surface cannot spread, thereby ensuring the safety of medical staff. The UV lamp 22 at the bottom of the baffle 2 will continue to work and continuously emit ultraviolet rays to disinfect the items inside the shell 1. Due to the existence of the baffle 2, the light of the UV lamp will not irradiate the outside of the shell 1, thereby further ensuring the safety of medical staff. After use, if it is necessary to remove the medical waste, it is only necessary to control the operating switch 12 to control the motor 311 to move, so that the storage tank 3 moves to the discharge port 14. Due to the existence of the hinge 13 at the top of the discharge port 14, the discharge port will be pushed open by the storage tank 13, so that the medical waste can be sent out.
[0023] Figure 4This is another embodiment of the utility model. In this embodiment, the storage tank 3 is no longer threadedly connected to the screw rod 31 on one side and slidably connected to the slide rail 32 on the other side, but both sides are threadedly connected to the screw rod 31. In this case, since both sides of the storage tank 3 are powered by the screw rod 31 through the rotation of the motor 311, the operating speed and response speed are faster, the power is more sufficient, and more medical waste can be carried. Through this structural change, the device can be changed from a small and medium-sized medical waste device to a large medical waste treatment device, but the use cost will also increase accordingly. Therefore, this embodiment can be implemented by considering the use situation during manufacturing.
[0024] In summary, the medical waste treatment device uses the storage trough 3, the screw rod 31 and the slide rail 32 in coordination. Specifically, when the screw rod 31 rotates, the storage trough 3 will move on the screw rod 31 and the slide rail 32. By controlling the rotation speed and direction of the motor 311, the rotation of the screw rod 31 can be controlled, so that the position of the storage trough 3 can be accurately controlled. By controlling the movement of multiple storage troughs 3, the required storage troughs 3 can be moved to the bottom of the delivery hole 11, and the remaining storage troughs 3 are away from the delivery hole 11, thereby achieving the purpose of classified collection of medical waste and saving usage space. Through the coordinated use of the baffle 2, the torsion spring 21 and the UV lamp 22, specifically, when the medical waste is put into the delivery hole 11, the gravity of the medical waste will press the baffle 2 down, so that the medical waste falls into the storage tank 3 below. After the medical waste falls, under the action of the torsion spring 21, the baffle 2 blocks the delivery hole 11 again, so that the inside of the shell 1 is re-sealed, avoiding the spread of pathogens in the medical waste. At the same time, the UV lamp 22 starts working, so that the device can disinfect the delivered medical waste in time, improve safety, and avoid the spread of pathogens caused by the long medical waste sorting process by medical staff.
