Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device manufacturing technology, specifically relating to a sharps box that prevents puncture wounds. Background Technology

[0002] A sharps box is a disposable medical storage box used to collect sharp instruments such as syringes, small glassware, blades, and suture needles.

[0003] The existing sharps container requires two hands to complete the "hold-cut-dispose" action. That is, medical staff need to use both hands to hold the needle and scissors to cut the needle and collect it in the sharps container. When holding syringes and other needles to cut, the needle can easily prick medical staff, which increases the risk of infection for medical staff. At the same time, when handling instruments with tubes, liquid splashing is likely to occur, which will contaminate relevant personnel and the medical environment. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sharps container that prevents punctures, thereby solving the technical problem that medical personnel are easily punctured and infected when collecting medical sharps. This invention achieves instrument separation and prevents medical personnel from cutting the needles in the sharps container, thus avoiding punctures or splashes of liquid and infection.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a sharps container to prevent puncture wounds, comprising:

[0006] A box lid, the top of which is horizontally provided with a top plate, and the top plate is provided with a through groove;

[0007] A cutting assembly is horizontally disposed inside the box cover. The cutting assembly includes a first blade connected to the inner wall of the top plate and a second blade disposed below the first blade. The second blade is rotatably connected to the first blade. The first blade and the second blade are respectively disposed at both ends of the through groove.

[0008] The box body has its top end detachably connected to the bottom end of the box cover.

[0009] Furthermore, the ends of the first blade and the second blade are connected by a rocker arm, which is rotatably connected to the top plate;

[0010] The bottom end of the rocker arm passes through the top plate, the first blade, and the second blade in sequence along the vertical direction, and the side wall of the rocker arm is connected to the second blade.

[0011] Furthermore, the side wall of the rocker arm is provided with a horizontal limiting ring and a limiting piece in sequence along the vertical direction. The lower surface of the limiting ring abuts against the upper surface of the top plate, and the upper surface of the limiting piece abuts against the lower surface of the second blade.

[0012] Furthermore, the top of the box cover is provided with a connecting ring and a retaining ring, and the outer wall of the retaining ring is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting ring;

[0013] The top plate is located inside the retaining ring, and the top of the top plate is provided with a plurality of shear grooves, the width of which gradually decreases along the axial direction of the shear groove.

[0014] Furthermore, at least one gripping piece is vertically arranged at the top of the retaining ring, and a baffle is horizontally arranged on the side wall of the retaining ring, the baffle matching the through groove;

[0015] The top of the rocker arm extends horizontally after passing through the baffle.

[0016] Furthermore, a connecting plate is horizontally provided on the inner wall of the top of the box, and a through hole is provided on the connecting plate;

[0017] The end of the connecting plate is connected to a downwardly inclined sliding plate.

[0018] Furthermore, there are two connecting plates and two sliding plates, which are symmetrically arranged about the axis of the box body, and a channel is formed between the two connecting plates and the sliding plates.

[0019] Furthermore, a first mounting ring is provided on the bottom outer wall of the box cover, and a second mounting ring matching the first mounting ring is provided on the top outer wall of the box body, with the first mounting ring inserted into the second mounting ring.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0021] 1. This utility model, by setting a cutting component, places the instrument to be cut into the through groove and places it close to the first blade. Turning the rocker arm moves the second blade closer to the first blade to cut the instrument, and the needle falls into the box and is collected. The sharps box cutting component makes the needle and instrument separate without medical staff having to hold a knife to cut. At the same time, the cutting point is located inside the sharps box, which avoids needle injury to medical staff and reduces liquid splashing into medical staff or the medical environment.

[0022] 2. This utility model uses a sliding plate. After cutting, the needle falls onto the sliding plate and drops into the box for collection. After a certain number of needles are collected, the sliding plate is tilted to block the channel, preventing subsequent needles from sliding down. At this point, the sharps box stops collecting and is sealed. This avoids medical staff having to repeatedly open the lid to check the filling level of the sharps box, which would increase the risk of exposure, increase the risk of infection, affect the safety of sharps handling, and reduce the efficiency of sharps handling.

Detailed Implementation

[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. 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.

[0033] Example 1:

[0034] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a sharps container designed to prevent puncture wounds includes: a lid 1, a body 2, and a cutting component 4. The top of the body 2 is detachably connected to the bottom of the lid 1, making it easy to install and remove, thus improving the efficiency of medical staff in collecting sharps. The cutting component 4 is horizontally positioned inside the lid 1, and it cuts the sharps inside, causing them to fall directly into the body 2 for collection. This prevents sharps from puncturing medical staff and avoids liquid splashing that could contaminate the medical environment.

[0035] The bottom outer wall of the lid 1 is provided with a first mounting ring 13, and the top outer wall of the body 2 is provided with a second mounting ring 23 that matches the first mounting ring 13. The first mounting ring 13 is inserted into the second mounting ring 23, and the lid 1 and the body 2 are connected by the first mounting ring 13 and the second mounting ring 23. The lid 1 can be removed by disassembly.

[0036] In addition, the top of the box cover 1 is provided with a connecting ring 12 and a retaining ring 3. The outer wall of the retaining ring 3 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting ring 12, and the retaining ring 3 is installed inside the connecting ring 12. At least one grip piece 32 is vertically provided at the top of the retaining ring 3, and the retaining ring 3 can be rotated by holding the grip piece.

[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, a top plate 11 is horizontally arranged at the top of the box cover 1. A through groove 111 is opened on the top plate 11. Larger sharp objects and sharp objects that do not need to be cut can be directly dropped into the through groove 111 and collected in the box body 2. The top plate 11 is located inside the retaining ring 3. Multiple shearing grooves 112 are also opened at the top of the top plate 11. The width of the shearing grooves 112 gradually decreases along the axial direction of the shearing grooves 112. The shearing grooves 112 are teardrop-shaped. The syringe needle is inserted into the teardrop-shaped hole of the shearing groove 112. The syringe nipple is used to hold the needle and then press down the syringe barrel to make it fall into the box body 2 automatically.

[0038] like Figure 4As shown, the cutting assembly 4 includes: a first blade 41 connected to the inner wall of the top plate 11 and a second blade 42 disposed below the first blade 41. The second blade 42 is rotatably connected to the first blade 41. The first blade 41 and the second blade 42 are respectively disposed at both ends of the through groove 111. The first blade 41 is fixed on the top plate 11. The sharp part of the infusion tubing to be cut is placed into the through groove 111 and placed close to the first blade 41. The second blade 42 is rotated to approach the first blade 41 to form scissors to cut the sharp part.

[0039] In this embodiment, the end of the first blade 41 and the end of the second blade 42 are connected by a rocker arm 43, which is rotatably connected to the top plate 11. The bottom end of the rocker arm 43 passes through the top plate 11, the first blade 41 and the second blade 42 in sequence along the vertical direction, and the side wall of the rocker arm 43 is connected to the second blade 42. Rotating the rocker arm 43 causes the second blade 42 to rotate, thereby rotating the second blade 42 to the position of the first blade 41 to cut the sharp object.

[0040] A baffle plate 31 is horizontally provided on the side wall of the retaining ring 3, and the baffle plate 31 matches the through groove 111; rotating the retaining ring 3 causes the baffle plate 31 to cover the through groove 111, thereby preventing sharp objects in the box 2 from being exposed for a long time and reducing the risk of infection.

[0041] In this embodiment, a horizontal limiting ring 431 and a limiting piece 432 are sequentially arranged on the side wall of the rocker arm 43 in the vertical direction. The lower surface of the limiting ring 431 abuts against the upper surface of the top plate 11, and the upper surface of the limiting piece 432 abuts against the lower surface of the second blade 42. The limiting ring 431 and the limiting piece 432 limit the rocker arm 43 and the second blade 42 in the vertical direction, so that they can only rotate horizontally, and prevent the rocker arm 43 and the second blade 42 from falling off during the cutting process.

[0042] Example 2:

[0043] Based on Embodiment 1, a connecting plate 21 is horizontally arranged on the inner wall of the top of the box 2, and a through hole 211 is opened on the connecting plate 21; a downwardly inclined sliding plate 22 is connected to the end of the connecting plate 21; there are two connecting plates 21 and two sliding plates 22, which are symmetrically arranged about the axis of the box 2, and a channel is formed between the two connecting plates 21 and two sliding plates 22; after a sharp instrument is cut, it falls into the box 2 through the through hole 211 or slides into the channel from the sliding plate 22 and falls into the box 2. When a certain number of sharp instruments are collected in the box 2, subsequent sharp instruments stop on the sliding plate 22 and cannot slide into the box 2. At this time, the sharp instrument box is collected and subsequent sealing operation is performed; this avoids medical staff from repeatedly opening the lid to observe the filling amount of the sharp instrument box, which would increase the exposure opportunity and thus increase the risk of infection, affect the safety of sharp instrument handling and reduce the efficiency of sharp instrument handling.

[0044] In summary, medical staff install the lid 1 and body 2, place the sharps to be cut into the through slot 111 and position it close to the first blade 41, turn the rocker arm 43 to rotate the second blade 42, so that the second blade 42 rotates to the first blade 41 to cut the sharps. The syringe needle can be cut using the cutting groove 112. After the sharps are cut, they fall into the body 2 through the through hole 211 or slide down the slide plate 22 into the channel and fall into the body 2. When a certain number of sharps are collected in the body 2, subsequent sharps stop on the slide plate 22 and cannot slide into the body 2. At this time, the sharps box is collected and the subsequent sealing operation is carried out.
