[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Example 1

[0021] See also Figure 1-6 The present embodiment provides a tube and needle separation sharps box, comprising a box body 1, a box cover 3 is provided on the top of the box body 1, two corresponding storage inner boxes 2 are provided in the box body 1, and the box cover 3 is provided with a placement opening 4 and a separation hole 5 corresponding to the two storage inner boxes 2 respectively. A baffle 6 corresponding to the placement opening 4 is rotatably provided on the upper end of the box cover 3. Specifically, as a conventional design familiar to those skilled in the art, a rotating shaft 7 is provided at the center of the box cover 3, and the baffle 6 is connected to the rotating shaft 7, thereby realizing the rotation of the baffle 6. A blocking shaft 17 for limiting and blocking the baffle 6 can also be provided on the box cover 3 to limit the opening degree of the baffle 6. The design of the above-mentioned baffle 6 is a conventional structure in the field of sharps boxes and will not be described in detail in this application. A cutting assembly for cutting off the needle tube in the separation hole 5 is provided on the box cover 3. Specifically, as Figure 1-3 As shown, the cutting assembly includes a chute 9 fixedly mounted at the bottom of the box cover 3. A slider 11 is slidably mounted within the chute 9. A spring 10 is disposed between the rear end of the chute 9 and the slider 11. A cutting blade 12 is disposed in front of the slider 11. A movable slot 18 is formed at the top end of the box cover 3. A lever 19 is movably disposed within the movable slot 18. The lower end of the lever 19 is fixedly connected to the slider 11. By shifting the lever 19, the slider 11 is driven to move the cutting blade 12 toward the separation hole 6, thereby cutting the rubber tube within the separation hole 6 and easily removing the needle. The lever 19 is then slowly returned, and under the action of the spring 10, the cutting blade 12 is positioned toward the side of the separation hole 5.

[0022] Further, if Figure 2-4As shown, in order to enable the cutting knife 12 to quickly cut the rubber tube in the separation hole 5 and avoid the problem of the rubber tube being difficult to cut due to bending during cutting, a cutting positioning assembly 13 corresponding to the cutting knife 12 is provided at the bottom of the separation hole 5. The cutting positioning assembly 13 includes a connector 14 fixedly arranged at the bottom of the box cover 3 and located on both sides of the separation hole 5. The connector 14 is provided with two corresponding cutting plates 15. A positioning slit 16 corresponding to the cutting knife 12 is left between the two cutting plates 15. The cutting knife 12 can be inserted into the positioning slit 16. In actual application, the side of the cutting plate 15 close to the cutting knife 12 is preferably designed as a blade structure, which is convenient for cooperating with the cutting knife 12 to softly cut the infusion tube, thereby quickly separating the needle tube from the needle. It should be noted that the separation hole 5 can also be used to dispose of syringe needles, so that it also has the same function as the separation hole of the existing sharps box.

[0023] like Figure 6 As shown, in actual application, according to national regulations, when the medical waste in the sharps box reaches three-quarters of the internal storage space, the sharps box should be sealed. Since the upper part of the storage inner box 2 for needles is only provided with a separation hole 5 with a limited aperture, it is not convenient for medical staff to observe the internal storage space during use. Therefore, preferably, the storage inner box 2 is designed as a transparent box, and an observation window 8 is provided on the box body 1 near the separation hole 5. It is convenient to see the storage volume of needles in the storage inner box 2.

[0024] It should be noted that the inner storage box 2 is removable from the box body 1. After use, medical personnel should promptly close the storage opening 4 via the baffle 6 and transport the sharps box to a regular medical waste recycling center for professional disposal. Since the sharps box is a disposable item, the actual processing of the chute 9 and slider 11 should take into account the processing cost. The chute 9 and the box cover 3 can be designed as an integrated design, both made of plastic, to minimize processing costs. This is a routine operation familiar to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail in this application.

[0025] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only specific and clear descriptions of the technical solutions and technical features of the present application. For those skilled in the art, solutions or features that belong to the prior art or common knowledge will not be described in detail in the above embodiments.

[0026] In addition, the technical solutions of the present application are not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other implementation methods that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
