Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary equipment, in particular to a storage bucket. Background Art

[0002] Home insulin therapy is an important means of managing diabetes, resulting in a surge in the number of discarded insulin needles generated in the community. Due to a lack of home medical waste disposal methods and supplies, most home-injecting patients simply discard their discarded insulin needles into community non-medical trash cans, significantly increasing the risk of sharps injuries and the potential for infectious diseases transmitted through blood and body fluids, as well as causing a degree of environmental pollution.

[0012] The utility model enables users to store insulin syringes and other medical waste at home.

[0013] After an insulin injection, discard the cotton swab, sterile cotton, and syringe with the needle removed into a trash bag supported by a folding stand. Dispose of the syringe needle into a sharps container. Once the sharps container reaches the set amount, close the container and secure it with a cable tie. Take the container to a community hospital, replace it with a new sharps container, and start a new round of storage. This avoids casual disposal into non-medical trash cans, which greatly increases the risk of sharps injuries and the spread of infectious diseases through blood and body fluids.

[0032] See also Figures 1 to 4 , Specific embodiment 1, recyclable medical waste sharps storage barrel, including a barrel body 4, a barrel cover connected to the barrel body 4, and also including a sharps box 3 located in the barrel body 4 and a folding frame for supporting a garbage bag; the sharps box 3 and the folding frame are arranged side by side on the left and right; the folding frame includes a first U-shaped frame and a second U-shaped frame; the first U-shaped frame includes a first bottom support rod, the first bottom support rod includes a first left rod portion 11, a first inclined connecting portion 12 and a first right rod portion 13 connected in sequence, and the length directions of the first left rod portion 11 and the first right rod portion 13 are parallel to each other; the second U-shaped frame includes a second bottom support rod, the second ... The second left rod 21, the second inclined connecting portion 22, and the second right rod 23 are connected, and the length directions of the second left rod 21 and the second right rod 23 are parallel to each other; the first inclined connecting portion 12 is higher than the first left rod 11 and the second left rod 21, and the first inclined connecting portion 12 is located above the second inclined connecting portion 22, and the first inclined connecting portion and the second inclined connecting portion are hingedly connected by a rotating shaft; the left and right ends of the first bottom support rod and the second bottom support rod are each provided with an upwardly extending extension portion, which is covered with a silicone sleeve; the outer wall of the barrel 4 is provided with a cable tie mounting position for fixing the cable tie 6. The utility model enables users to store insulin syringes and other medical waste at home. After insulin injection, the cotton swabs, sterile cotton, and syringes with needles removed are discarded into the garbage bag supported by the folding stand, and the syringe needles are discarded into the sharps container 3. Once the amount in the sharps container 3 reaches the set amount, the sharps container 3 is closed and tied with the cable tie 6 to secure the garbage bag. The sharps container 3 is then taken to the community hospital, where it is replaced with a new sharps container 3 for a new round of storage. This avoids randomly discarding the sharps into non-medical trash cans, which greatly increases the possibility of sharps injuries and the spread of infectious diseases through blood and body fluids.

[0033] The bottoms of the first left rod, the second left rod, the first right rod and the second right rod are all connected with silicone pads.

[0034] The bottom of the barrel body is provided with a positioning groove for embedding the bottom of the sharps box 3.

[0035] The cable tie mounting position includes a hollow ring, the inner hole of the hollow ring is used to pass the toothed belt of the cable tie 6, and the upper side of the hollow ring is against the lock buckle of the cable tie 6, which is convenient for fixing the cable tie 6.

This facilitates the fixing of the cable tie. The transparent tape is used to bind and fix the opening of the garbage bag.

[0039] Specific embodiment 3, based on specific embodiment 1, has a retaining groove formed in the bottom of the barrel body for receiving the bottom of the unfolded folding frame. This facilitates the securement of the sharps container and prevents it from tipping over. The retaining groove may include an annular groove for receiving the first and second inclined connecting portions, and four strip-shaped grooves for receiving the first left rod, the second left rod, the first right rod, and the second right rod, respectively. The four strip-shaped grooves are connected to the annular groove.

[0040] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
