The present invention relates to a syringe cutting and separating discharge device.

Syringes are one of the medical tools used to inject drugs into the body or to draw blood. However, syringes that have been used once may cause infections of various infectious diseases and infectious diseases, and must be disposed of safely.

As a specific example, syringes used as therapeutic tools in medical institutions such as hospitals are prohibited from being reused to prevent secondary infection.

As such, the syringe used in the hospital is essentially subjected to a disposal process, in which the needle and body of the syringe are disposed of and discarded instead of discarding the syringe as it is. This separation is accompanied by safety risks, such as a personal injury. For example, in order to block secondary infections of lung syringes, hospitals in some countries use instantaneous treatment equipment using a device that melts and oxidizes at a high temperature after using a syringe, but domestic hospitals use conventional infectious waste treatment methods. (E.g., post-collection batch). Conventional infectious waste treatment methods had to remove needles by hand or by using protrusions located on the caps of damaged waste bins, causing secondary pollution such as blood or contaminated medicinal splashing.
