Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sharps containers, specifically relating to an improved sharps container. Background Technology

[0002] Sharps containers, also known as instrument boxes, are used to hold needles for single-use items such as syringes and infusion sets, various blades, scalp vein needles, suture needles, ampoules, small glass items, and other medical hazardous infection items that are required to be placed in sharps containers.

[0003] Traditional sharps containers are typically used to collect and store used needles, scalpel blades, and other sharps to prevent accidental injuries. However, existing sharps containers often lack adequate sealing performance, which may lead to leakage of contents during transportation or disposal. This increases the risk of injury to personnel during medical waste disposal. Furthermore, in high-frequency use environments, operators need to frequently handle the sharps containers, which not only increases the operational burden and reduces operational efficiency but also increases the risk of accidental punctures or cuts.

[0004] Therefore, an improved sharps container is proposed, which has strong sealing performance, is easy to operate, and does not require the operator to touch the lid when used frequently, thus reducing the risk of injury. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the problems of existing sharps containers often having insufficient sealing performance and requiring operators to touch the sharps container when opening or closing, which increases the risk of accidental punctures.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: an improved sharps box, including a box body; a dispensing port is fixedly connected to the upper end of the box body, the dispensing port is in the shape of an inverted trapezoid, a cover plate is hinged to the upper edge of the dispensing port, and a sealing component is provided on the dispensing port and the cover plate. The sealing component includes a first groove, a sealing strip, a sealing block and a second groove. The first groove is opened at the upper end of the dispensing port, and a sealing strip is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first groove. A sealing block is fixedly connected to the end of the cover plate near the dispensing port, and the side wall of the sealing block fits against the inner wall of the dispensing port. The second groove is opened at the end of the cover plate near the dispensing port, and the inner wall of the second groove fits against the inner wall of the sealing strip. A lifting component is provided on the side of the box body, a fixing component is provided on the dispensing port and the cover plate, and a protective component is provided inside the box body.

[0007] Preferably, by placing the container in a suitable position and using anti-slip pads to enhance friction with the contact surface, stability is improved. When a sharp object needs to be placed inside the container, the cylinder is activated, causing the connecting block to move the sleeve and support column upwards. The support column then causes the sliding block to slide upwards on the inner wall of the first slot. Since a support rod is rotatably mounted on the other end of the support column, it moves upwards, causing the pulley to slide forward on the inner wall of the fourth groove, thus opening the cover from the top of the placement opening. This method is simple to operate, reduces manual intervention, and is suitable for frequent use or scenarios requiring rapid placement of sharp objects, improving safety. When the item is placed inside the container, the cylinder is deactivated, and the cover moves in the opposite direction of its opening motion until the end of the cover near the placement opening is aligned with the top of the placement opening. At this point, the outer wall of the first sealing strip fits against the inner wall of the second groove, preventing leakage of internal materials during transportation or tilting, providing additional protection. Meanwhile, the outer wall of the second sealing block fits against the inner wall of the dispensing port, preventing leakage of air and liquid, ensuring that the sharps container is not affected by the external environment during normal use, and improving the safety of operators. When the container is full of sharps, the U-shaped block is then removed and installed on the inner wall of the third groove. The bolts are then threaded through the side wall of the triangular block and threaded into the groove, increasing the overall structural stability and preventing the lid from being accidentally opened during transportation when not in operation. This solves the problem that existing sharps containers often have insufficient sealing performance and require operators to touch the sharps container when opening or closing, increasing the risk of accidental punctures.

[0008] Preferably, the lifting assembly includes a first fixed block, a first slot, a second slot, a support plate, a cylinder, a connecting block, a sleeve, a support column, a sliding block, a support rod, a connecting column, and a pulley. The first fixed block is fixed to the side wall of the housing. A first slot is formed through the front end of the first fixed block, and a second slot is formed at the left end of the first fixed block. The first and second slots communicate with each other. A support plate is fixed to the lower side wall of the first fixed block. A cylinder is fixed to the lower end of the support plate. A connecting block is fixed to the output end of the cylinder through the support plate. A sleeve is fixed to the upper end of the connecting block. A support column is fixed to the inner wall of the sleeve. The end of the support column closest to the first fixed block is fixed to... It has a sliding block, with its left and right ends fitting against the inner wall of the first groove. A support rod is rotatably mounted on the other end of the support column, and a connecting column is fixed to the side wall of the other end of the support rod. A pulley is fixed to the other end of the connecting column. In use, by opening the cylinder, the sliding block drives the connecting block, sleeve, and support column to move up and down. The support column drives the sliding block to slide up and down on the inner wall of the first groove. Since the support rod is rotatably mounted on the other end of the support column, it drives the support rod to move up and down. The support rod drives the pulley to move on the inner wall of the fourth groove. This reduces manual intervention and is suitable for scenarios with frequent use or where sharp objects need to be quickly placed. It is simple to operate and improves safety.

[0009] Preferably, the fixing assembly includes a second fixing block, a third groove, a triangular block, a U-shaped block, a threaded groove, and bolts. The second fixing block is fixed to the side wall of the cover plate, and the third groove is formed in the side wall of the second fixing block. The triangular block is fixed to the side wall of the dispensing port, and the U-shaped block is movably installed on the inner wall of the third groove. Threaded grooves are formed through the left and right ends of the U-shaped block, and bolts passing through the side wall of the triangular block are threadedly installed on the inner wall of the threaded grooves. In use, when the inside of the box is full of sharp objects, the cover plate and the dispensing port are closed. Then, the U-shaped block is removed and installed on the inner wall of the third groove. The bolts are threadedly installed through the side wall of the triangular block and the threaded grooves, which increases the stability of the overall structure.

[0010] Preferably, the protective components include a cross plate, an anti-stab pad, a fifth groove, a fixing plate, and a limiting plate. The cross plate is fixed to the lower end of the inner wall of the box, and the anti-stab pad is fixed to the side wall of the cross plate and the inner wall of the box. The fifth groove is opened at the upper end of the cross plate, and the fixing plate is installed on the inner wall of the fifth groove by magnetic attraction. The limiting plate is fixed to the upper end of the fixing plate. When sharp objects are put into the box, the cross plate can distribute the sharp objects into different areas, which can effectively reduce the collision or movement of sharp objects in the box. The anti-stab pad can prevent sharp objects from damaging the inside of the box and improve its service life. Since the fixing plate is installed on the inner wall of the fifth groove by magnetic attraction, disassembly and assembly are simple and convenient for later maintenance.

[0011] Preferably, the side wall of the cover plate has a fourth groove, and the pulley is slidably disposed on the inner wall of the fourth groove. In use, when the support rod moves upward, it drives the pulley to slide on the inner wall of the fourth groove, which can realize the smooth opening and closing of the cover plate, avoid the shaking or uneven movement caused by direct pushing and pulling, and ensure smooth operation.

[0012] Preferably, an anti-slip pad is fixed to the lower end of the box. During use, the anti-slip pad can enhance the friction with the contact surface and improve the stability during use.

[0013] As a preferred option, the box body, dispensing port, and cover are made of high-strength plastic, ensuring that the sealing structure will not deform after prolonged use.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. When a sharp object is placed inside the container, the cylinder is activated, and the connecting block drives the sleeve and support column to move upward. The support column drives the sliding block to slide upward on the inner wall of the first slot. Since the other end of the support column is rotatably equipped with a support rod, it drives the support rod to move upward. The support rod drives the pulley to slide forward on the inner wall of the fourth groove, thereby opening the cover from the top of the placement port. The operation is simple, does not require contact with the container opening, reduces manual intervention, and is suitable for scenarios with frequent use or where sharp objects need to be placed quickly. It improves safety and solves the problem that existing sharp object boxes require operators to contact the sharp object box when opening or closing, increasing the risk of accidental punctures.

[0016] 2. By having the outer wall of the first sealing strip fit against the inner wall of the second groove, leakage of internal materials can be prevented during transportation or tilting, providing additional protection. Meanwhile, the outer wall of the second sealing block fits against the inner wall of the dispensing port, preventing leakage of air and liquid. This ensures that the sharps container is not affected by the external environment during normal use, improves the safety of operators, and solves the problem that existing sharps containers often have insufficient sealing performance.

[0017] 3. The U-shaped block is installed on the inner wall of the third groove, and the bolt is threaded through the side wall of the triangular block and threaded into the groove, which increases the stability of the overall structure. The cross plate can distribute the sharp objects into different areas, which can effectively reduce the collision or movement of sharp objects in the box. The anti-puncture pad can prevent sharp objects from damaging the inside of the box and improve its service life. The box, the inlet and the cover are made of high-strength plastic, which ensures that the sealing structure will not deform after long-term use. Attached Figure Description
