Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a medical sharps box. Background Technology

[0002] In the medical setting, needlestick injuries are one of the main occupational risks faced by healthcare workers. Statistics show that needlestick injuries not only pose a serious threat to the health of medical personnel but can also lead to cross-infection and cause broader health and safety problems. Therefore, how to safely and efficiently handle medical instruments with needles has become an important issue in the medical industry. Sharps containers, as safety devices specifically designed to store used needles and other sharp objects, aim to reduce the risk of needlestick injuries and thus protect the safety of healthcare workers.

[0003] However, existing sharps containers have some shortcomings in terms of ease of use. Many sharps containers are not designed with the actual needs of medical personnel in high-pressure environments in mind, especially in emergencies where ease of use is paramount. Some sharps containers rely solely on a snap-lock mechanism to remove needles, a design that may lead to incompatibility with syringes with different connection methods. For example, some syringe designs may prevent the needle from properly engaging with the snap-lock mechanism, causing inconvenience for medical personnel when disposing of used needles and potentially leading to accidental needle detachment during removal. This not only increases the risk of needlestick injury but also forces medical personnel to expend extra time and effort to address this inconvenience, reducing work efficiency.

[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model are described clearly and completely below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

The terms "first," "second," "third," "fourth," and similar words used in this invention do not indicate any order, quantity, or importance, but are merely used to distinguish different components. Terms such as "comprising" or "including" mean that the element or object preceding the word encompasses the elements or objects listed following the word and their equivalents, without excluding other elements or objects.

[0038] Existing sharps containers have some shortcomings in terms of ease of use. Many sharps containers are not designed with the actual needs of medical personnel in high-pressure environments in mind, especially in emergencies where ease of use is paramount. Some sharps containers rely solely on a snap-fit ​​mechanism to remove needles, which may lead to incompatibility with syringes with different connection methods. For example, some syringe designs may prevent the needle from properly engaging with the snap-fit ​​mechanism, causing inconvenience for medical personnel when disposing of used needles and potentially leading to accidental needle detachment during removal. This not only increases the risk of needlestick injury but also forces medical personnel to spend extra time and effort dealing with this inconvenience, reducing work efficiency. To address these technical problems, this invention provides a medical sharps container that can accommodate both rotary and snap-fit ​​syringes, offering high ease of use. The technical solution of this invention will be described in detail below with specific examples.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, the present invention relates to a medical sharps box, comprising a box body 1, a positioning plate 2, and a clamping device. The positioning plate 2 is sealed at the opening of the box body 1, and a first positioning hole 3 is provided on the positioning plate 2 for a syringe to pass through the box body 1. The clamping device is disposed inside the box body 1 and below the positioning plate 2, and is used to clamp the needle of the syringe.

[0040] For example, when using this sharps container, medical personnel only need to insert the syringe into the container 1 through the first positioning hole 3 and clamp the needle part of the syringe using the clamping device. It should be noted that currently, the connection methods between syringes and needles are mainly divided into two categories: threaded connection and snap-fit ​​connection. When separating a threaded syringe, after clamping the needle part, the needle part can be separated by rotating the syringe. When separating a snap-fit ​​syringe, after clamping the needle part, the syringe can be pulled out directly. This utility model provides a medical sharps container that can accommodate both rotary and snap-fit ​​connected syringes, offering the advantage of high ease of operation.

[0041] In one embodiment, the overall structure of the clamping device is further refined. The clamping device includes two opposing displacement components 4 disposed on both sides of the first positioning hole 3. Each displacement component 4 includes a connector 41, a clamping block 42, a button 43, and an elastic element 44. The connector 41 is slidably connected to the positioning plate 2. The clamping block 42 is connected to one end of the connector 41. One side of the button 43 passes through the housing 1 and connects to the connector 41, while the other side protrudes for the user to press. The elastic element 44 connects the connector 41 and the positioning plate 2, and the elastic force of the elastic element 44 causes the button 43 to move outward.

[0042] For example, when operating the clamping device to clamp the needle part of the syringe, the syringe is inserted into the inside of the box 1 through the first positioning hole 3. Then, two buttons 43 are pressed with two fingers of one hand. The movement of the buttons 43 will drive the two clamping blocks 42 to move through the connector 41. During the movement, the needle part of the syringe is adjusted, and the two buttons 43 are pressed to make the two clamping blocks clamp the needle part, thus completing the clamping operation of the clamping device.

[0043] In one embodiment, more preferably, a second positioning hole 5 is also provided on the positioning plate 2. A blade 45 is also connected to the connector 41, and the two blades 45 of the two displacement components 4 are arranged opposite each other below the second positioning hole 5, and the two blades 45 are staggered to slide and shear the infusion tube that penetrates into the second positioning hole 5.

[0044] Specifically, in this embodiment, the second positioning hole 5 is used to insert the infusion tube and the needle at its end. The difference is that the needle portion of the infusion tube needs to be cut off. Both the first positioning hole 3 and the second positioning hole 5 are circular.

[0045] For example, after inserting the infusion tube and its needle through the second positioning hole 5, pressing both buttons 43 causes the two blades 45 to move via the connector 41, thereby cutting the infusion tube. The second positioning hole 5 and the blades 45 enable this device to cut and remove the needle portion of the infusion tube. Medical personnel can select the appropriate option according to their actual needs during operation, improving the flexibility of the device.

[0046] In this embodiment, it is preferable that a positioning groove 6 for the infusion tube to be inserted is provided in the second positioning hole 5, and the two blades 45 are located below the positioning groove 6.

[0047] It should be noted that the positioning groove 6 is designed to allow the infusion tube to be positioned. After the larger part of the needle passes through the second positioning hole 5, the infusion tube can move and sink into the positioning groove 6. When the button 43 is pressed to cut, the two sides of the positioning groove 6 can assist in positioning the infusion tube, thereby improving the cutting stability of the infusion tube.

[0048] In one embodiment, the overall structure of the connector 41 is further refined. A connecting block 21 is integrally fixed to the bottom of the positioning plate 2. The connector 41 includes a sliding section 411 and a connecting section 412. The sliding section 411 passes through the connecting block 21 to achieve a sliding connection. The connecting section 412 extends to two forked ends, one end of which is connected to the clamping block 42, and the other end is connected to the blade 45.

[0049] In this embodiment, the elastic element 44 is specifically a spring, which is sleeved on the connector 41. One end of the spring is connected to the positioning plate 2, and the other end is connected to the connector 41. A limit block is provided on one side of the button 43 inside the box 1. The limit block restricts the button 43 from extending out of the box 1. The spring force pushes the limit block of the button 43 against the inner wall of the box 1.

[0050] For example, when button 43 is pressed, button 43 moves synchronously with clamping block 42 and blade 45 via connector 41, thereby clamping the needle component that passes through the first positioning hole 3, or cutting the needle component that enters through the second positioning hole 5 via blade 45.

[0051] In one embodiment, more preferably, a third positioning hole 7 is also provided on the positioning plate 2, the third positioning hole 7 for inserting the blade 45 type sharp tool into the box body 1.

[0052] The third positioning hole 7 is specifically set in a semi-circular shape, and its size is larger than that of the first positioning hole 3 and the second positioning hole 5. The setting of the third positioning hole 7 allows the larger blade 45 to also be inserted into the box 1, improving the practicality of the box 1.

[0053] Meanwhile, a top cover 9 is threadedly connected to the top of the box 1, and the top cover 9 seals and covers the positioning plate 2. After being filled with sharp instruments, medical staff can use the top cover 9 to close the box 1 for subsequent storage and transportation.

[0054] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
