[0034] The sealing block 6 is rotatably installed in the hopper 11 to open or seal the discharge port 3. After the treatment tank has finished treating the medical waste, the sealing block 6 is rotated upward to open the discharge port 3 so that the crushed and sterilized medical waste can be discharged outward for further processing. Specifically, a rotating block 13 is provided on the outer periphery of the treatment tank 1 and is rotatably connected to the sealing block 6. The rotating block 13 and the sealing block 6 are rotatably connected by a rotating shaft. During use, a drive component that can drive the rotating shaft can be set according to the usage requirements, such as a motor or other drive equipment that can realize the rotation of the rotating shaft, so as to realize the automated control of the sealing block 6. The specific selection of its rotation mode and structural composition will not be further elaborated here.

[0035] The heating assembly 8, located above the wear-resistant block 5, includes multiple heating rods 81 circumferentially distributed on the upper end of the treatment chamber 2. The arrangement of the heating rods 81 allows the treatment chamber 2 to be within a limited temperature range, ensuring its continuous use.

[0036] The cooling nozzle 7 is connected to an external water storage tank. After the medical waste is crushed, water is sprayed to cool the crushed medical waste, so that it can be cooled to the set temperature in a short time and then discharged from the discharge port 3.

[0037] When medical waste is crushed, the rotating crusher 41 drives the first crusher 42 and the second crusher 43 to rotate, crushing the medical waste in the treatment chamber 2. During the crushing process, the medical waste diffuses outward due to the centrifugal force generated by the high-speed rotation of the crusher 41, while the first crusher 42 and the second crusher 43 generate an inward circumferential force as they rotate with the crusher 41, causing the medical waste to move rapidly between the first crusher 42 and the second crusher 43, achieving the desired crushing effect. Furthermore, during the high-speed rotation of the crushing component 4, the medical waste in contact with it collides with each other between the crushing component 4 and the wear-resistant block 5, resulting in displacement caused by mechanical forces. It can convert heat energy to raise the temperature of medical waste; then further increase the rotation speed to further crush the crushed medical waste and continue to raise the temperature to the limited sterilization temperature, and then maintain the rotation speed to complete the sterilization and disinfection of medical waste; after the crushed medical waste has been disinfected, control the cooling nozzle 7 to work, which will have a certain cooling effect on the medical waste, so that the medical waste is cooled to the set temperature in a short time and discharged from the discharge port 3; the heating component 8 can keep the treatment chamber 2 at the temperature when the medical waste was crushed after the crushed medical waste is discharged, so that the subsequent medical waste entering the treatment state can quickly enter the treatment state and reduce the treatment time of subsequent medical waste.

[0038] The disposal bin specified in this application integrates crushing and disinfection functions, enabling medical waste to be harmlessly treated within the equipment, reducing the transfer and transportation of medical waste, and exhibiting a high degree of automation. Specifically, the structure of the crushing component 4 is further defined, consisting of a first crushing blade 42 and a second crushing blade 43 working together to effectively improve the crushing degree of the medical waste. During the crushing process, the high-speed rotating crushing component continuously heats the medical waste and maintains it at a specified disinfection temperature for a period of time, completing the disinfection treatment. Furthermore, the disposal bin specified in this application allows for direct treatment of medical waste at the hospital, eliminating the need to package and transport the medical waste to a specific medical waste disposal company, simplifying the treatment process and reducing the cost of medical waste disposal.

[0039] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, and therefore cannot be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the scope of the patent application and the contents of the specification of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the patent of the present utility model.
