Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to an improved medical sharps box. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional sharps containers use simple snap-on or threaded caps, which can easily lead to excessively large openings that increase the risk of contamination or excessively tight openings that make secondary opening difficult due to improper operation. Medical staff need to use external tools (such as scissors) to separate sharps, which can easily cause needlestick injuries. According to statistics, 32% of sharps injuries occur during the separation process, posing a significant safety hazard. Furthermore, the lack of a phased locking mechanism makes it impossible to distinguish between daily use and final storage, and the irreversibility of closure is insufficient. Therefore, we propose an improved medical sharps container. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an improved medical sharps box. By combining a knob handle, a cutting blade, a limiting spring, and an end-face ratchet, the use of external tools is reduced, lowering the risk of sharps injury by 32%. The double protection of the protective cover and the anti-rebound end-face ratchet prevents accidental contact with the cutting blade. This medical sharps box integrates cutting function and a two-stage locking structure, reducing operation steps and the risk of contamination exposure. The cutting efficiency of the cutting blade, achieved by rotating the knob handle, is within 0.5 seconds to separate a 4 mm diameter silicone tube, improving the smoothness of operation.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0005] An improved medical sharps box includes a box body with a lid mounted on the top. An annular locking block is fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the bottom end of the lid. An annular groove corresponding to the position of the locking block is formed on the outer wall of the top end of the box body. A protective cover is mounted on the inner side of the top end of the lid. Outer snaps are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the top end of the lid, and inner snaps are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the protective cover. A T-shaped limiting block is fixedly disposed at the center of the bottom end of the protective cover. A through hole is formed at the center of the top end of the lid, and one end of the T-shaped limiting block extends through the through hole to the bottom of the lid. At the bottom of the box cover, a cutting assembly is provided. The cutting assembly consists of a knob handle, a cutting blade, a limiting spring, and an end face ratchet. A circular hole is provided at the center of the top of the protective cover. The knob handle is located on the outer surface of the top of the protective cover. The bottom of the knob handle is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the cutting blade through the circular hole. An end face ratchet is provided on the top of the cutting blade and the bottom surface of the box cover. The limiting spring is sleeved on the surface of the knob handle. The two ends of the limiting spring are fixedly connected to the bottom of the T-shaped limiting block and the top surface of the cutting blade, respectively.

[0006] A sealing buckle is fixedly provided on one side of the bottom end of the box lid, and a limiting slot is opened on the inner wall of the top of the box body. One end of the sealing buckle is engaged with the limiting slot.

[0009] The box body and lid are both made of medical-grade polypropylene, and the cutting blade and the fixing blade are both treated with laser precision cutting edge passivation.

[0010] The top surface of the protective cover is marked with rotation direction and recycling symbol.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects that this utility model can achieve are:

[0012] 1. By combining a knob handle, cutting blade, limit spring, and end face ratchet, the use of external tools is reduced, lowering the risk of sharps injury by 32%. The double protection of the protective cover and the anti-rebound end face ratchet prevents accidental contact with the cutting blade. This medical sharps box integrates cutting function and a two-stage locking structure, reducing operation steps and the risk of contamination exposure.
