Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical waste treatment technology, specifically a turnover box for medical waste. Background Technology
[0002] Medical waste refers to infectious, toxic, and radioactive waste generated during diagnosis, treatment, nursing, and scientific research, such as needles, gloves, medicine bottles, and bodily fluids. It poses a potential hazard of disease transmission and environmental pollution, thus requiring special handling. Medical waste transfer boxes are devices for the temporary storage of medical waste. Due to the special nature of medical waste, a tightly sealed garbage bag is usually placed inside the transfer box beforehand. This serves both to enhance sealing and to facilitate the use of the transfer box. However, due to the large size of the garbage bag and the large internal space of the transfer box, it takes considerable effort to unfold the garbage bag inside, and the bag is often not fully or completely unfolded. Therefore, improvements are needed to address these issues. Utility Model Content
[0003] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a turnover box for medical waste, comprising a base, four omnidirectional movable brake wheels installed at the bottom of the base, a turnover box body fixedly installed at the top of the base, a sealing cover groove opened at the top of the turnover box body, a sealing box plate rotatably installed on one side of the groove via a bearing and a connecting shaft, a hole opened in the middle of the sealing box plate, a baffle plate rotatably installed at the bottom of the sealing box plate to seal the hole, four ultraviolet disinfection lamps for disinfection installed at the bottom of the sealing box plate, an air suction pump installed on one side of the turnover box body, the air suction port of the air suction pump communicating with the interior of the turnover box body, a vertical square groove opened at the top of the turnover box body and inside the sealing cover groove, a rectangular frame provided inside the vertical square groove, and a square rubber ring for compressing and sealing the garbage bag fixedly installed at the bottom of the rectangular frame.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0018] Depend on Figures 1 to 6 The present invention includes a base 1, four omnidirectional movable brake wheels 2 installed at the bottom of the base 1, a turnover box 3 fixedly installed at the top of the base 1, a sealing cover groove 4 opened at the top of the turnover box 3, a sealing box plate 5 rotatably installed on one side of the groove 4 via a bearing and a connecting shaft, a hole 6 opened in the middle of the sealing box plate 5, a baffle 7 rotatably installed at the bottom of the sealing box plate 5 to seal the hole 6, an installation groove located at the bottom of the hole 6 opened at the bottom of the sealing box plate 5, the baffle 7 rotatably installed inside the installation groove via a bearing and a connecting shaft, torsion springs are sleeved at both ends of the connecting shaft, and the two ends of the torsion springs are fixedly connected to the side wall of the baffle 7 and the installation groove, respectively, so that the baffle 7 can effectively seal and block the hole 6, and the baffle 7 can rotate and open 120° inside the sealing cover groove 4.
[0019] Four ultraviolet disinfection lamps 8 for disinfection are installed at the bottom of the sealed box plate 5. An air suction pump 9 is installed on one side of the turnover box 3. The air suction port of the air suction pump 9 is connected to the inside of the turnover box 3. A vertical square groove 10 is opened at the top of the turnover box 3 and inside the groove 4 of the sealing cover plate. A rectangular frame 11 is provided inside the vertical square groove 10. A square rubber ring 12 for pressing and sealing the garbage bag is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rectangular frame 11.
[0020] The bottom of the vertical rectangular groove 10 has two vertical holes 14 on each of its four sides. Each of the eight vertical holes 14 has a connecting rod 13 that is movably inserted into it. The top of each of the eight connecting rods 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rectangular frame 11. Each of the eight connecting rods 13 has a transmission groove 15 on one side of its lower part. Each of the transmission grooves 15 has a transmission rack 16 fixedly installed inside it. The interior of the turnover box 3 has an inner square groove 17 that communicates with the middle of the eight vertical holes 14. Each of the four sides of the inner square groove 17 has an adjusting shaft 18 that is rotatably installed on it via bearings. Each of the four adjusting shafts 18 has a transmission gear 19 fixedly installed on its surface. Each of the eight transmission gears 19 is located inside the eight transmission grooves 15 and meshes with the transmission rack 16. Each of the four adjusting shafts 18 has a bevel gear 20 fixedly installed at both ends. Any two adjacent bevel gears 20 are meshed with each other, thereby enabling the eight connecting rods 13 to be adjusted synchronously.
[0021] A vertical inner groove 21 is provided at the bottom of one side of the inner square groove 17. A sliding plate 22 is installed inside the vertical inner groove 21 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of two connecting rods 13. An electric telescopic cylinder 23 is installed at the bottom of the vertical inner groove 21. The telescopic end of the electric telescopic cylinder 23 is fixedly connected to the middle of the bottom of the sliding plate 22. A power cord connected to an external power source is provided on the turnover box 3. The power cord is connected to the ultraviolet disinfection lamp 8, the air pump 9 and the electric telescopic cylinder 23 through a switch and wires, so that it can be effectively adjusted.
[0022] Specifically, as shown in the attached diagram, open the turnover box, and then put the garbage bag inside the turnover box 3, so that the upper part of the garbage bag is inside the vertical square groove 10 and below the rectangular frame 11 and the square rubber ring 12.
[0023] Then, the electric telescopic cylinder 23 is activated to retract, causing the sliding plate 22 to move downward. The downward movement of the sliding plate 22 will cause the two connecting rods 13 connected to it to move downward. The two downward moving connecting rods 13 will drive the transmission gear 19 aligned with them to rotate through the transmission rack 16 on them. The rotation of the transmission gear 19 will drive one of the adjusting shafts 18 connected to it to rotate. The rotation of the adjusting shaft 18 will cause the other three adjusting shafts 18 to rotate synchronously through the meshing bevel gear 20. The rotation of the other three adjusting shafts 18 will drive the other transmission racks 16 to move downward through the transmission gear 19 on them, ultimately causing all eight connecting rods 13 to move downward. The downward movement of the eight connecting rods 13 will drive the rectangular frame 11 and the square rubber ring 12 to move downward, ultimately causing the square rubber ring 12 to clamp and seal the upper part of the garbage bag.
[0024] Next, start the air pump 9 to suck out the air between the inside of the turnover box 3 and the outside of the garbage bag. Then, due to the negative pressure, the garbage bag will fully unfold and lie on the inner wall of the turnover box 3. Finally, close the sealing box 5.
[0025] This medical waste transfer box features both a fixed and unfolding structure for the waste bags. The fixed structure effectively ensures the secure and airtight installation of the waste bags, while the unfolding structure allows the installed waste bags to be unfolded effectively and completely, increasing the storage capacity. The use of both the fixed and unfolding structures improves the efficiency and speed of waste bag installation. Furthermore, this medical waste transfer box has a simple structural design, is convenient and easy to use and operate, and the fixing and unfolding operations of the waste bags are stable and reliable. Its performance meets the requirements of use.
